mead (noun), (german: Met)
Wine made from honey.
Roughly brewed like this:
Water and honey are transformed into wine by "usual" means.
Afterwards, the basic honey is put into the wine again to make it sweeter (better) and some herbs are added for further improvement of the taste. Recipes vary greatly.
First people who made "mead" were the vikings. Since then always been somewhat popular in many regions of the world.
This stuff was the reason for vikings' being so cool.
Usually will get you drunk fast if you are not used to this special kind of alcohol.
Best served either cold or hot.
Warm mead is like warm beer: tasting somewhat shitty in comparison to the cooled stuff.
Possible mixdrinks are:
Viking's blood:
50% mead
50% cherry juice
even sweeter than the pure stuff.
Odin:
25-35% mead
65-75% beer
unique taste. For those who think mead to sweet.

A honey-based alcoholic drink from medieval times, often drank today by nerds who play Warhammer, medieval re-enactment knights who think they're actually living in the middle ages, and goths with an interest in both areas.
Here now, who wants a serving of mead? I'm sorry, we have no beer or vodka within these walls. Just mead. Pass me your goblet and I'll pour you some.
