Medrano

In the sunny afternoon, today the 21st of August of 2022, my family sipped some King Arthur's Dry Mead from Chinook Arch Meadery. For many years, I've wondered what mead or honey wine would taste like, as I know that our surname in would-be Esperanto means "mead frog"—"medo" plus "rano"—"Medrano." It's like a drunken amphibian. Ancient Egyptians consumed mead, and ancient Beowulf and Tolkien writings mention it.
