This ZELDA MEAD is made with ingredients from Tears of the Kingdom!

Tears of the Kingdom is finally here! And in order to celebrate this new Legend of Zelda game I brewed up a mead inspired by the game, using ingredients I could find in the game. Hopefully I make Link proud with this one!
And before you ask yes the glitter makes going to the bathroom more fun too!

This is Spectacular

[@carolinepeterson7995]

If TheBruSho weren't already my favorite brewtube channel (by a mile), this would clinch it! LOVE Zelda and all your inspiration for fun and creative brewing projects.

[@TheBruSho]

Thanks so much! I had a ton of fun making this one as you might be able to tell

[@dudestewbrews]

Love the creativity with these latest videos Trent.

[@allyip5777]

I just wish everyone on earth could be as chill out as you are. God should make more men like you!

[@TheBruSho]

That is incredibly sweet thank you

[@TheSecretTheo]

We need MOOOOORE LIKE THIS!!!😍😍😍

[@lucidhoody4208]

The sound effects, quality, personality and brews are just top notch, well done mate!

[@Chemsci-j1v]

“No other game has captured my heart than Zelda”? What?

[@RHBronco]

Homebrewing, Dark Tower, Mario, Zelda - your channel speaks to me.

[@TheBruSho]

Haha yes!! ⚔️

[@TexasNativeBrewing]

No hate for the vegan honey here! Always enjoy the videos, and also a huge Zelda fan. I haven’t acquired the new game yet but that will change soon!

[@TheBruSho]

Thanks, appreciate that! And I’m excited to jump in and start playing

[@aaronweyl2272]

Wow, looks lovely in final product especially with glitter effect! I'm gonna do the same but for ciders and other gaming franchise!

[@tomknight2366]

That you and BC both did TOTK meads with totally different results is a great display of how brewers can take the same inspiration with totally different end drinks! Great fun and great (I think unintentional) collab :)

[@TheBruSho]

Yeah it was fun to watch how he did it. Sounds like we need to finally Collab for real!

[@tobarstep]

That's a really cool idea with the glitter. My daughter is getting into DnD now and I think it'd be a cool idea to give her some "healing potions" for Christmas (she's 23, stop panicking 😄). I may try this. Thanks for the idea!

[@TheBruSho]

That’s a great idea I think she would love that!

[@The_Bearded_B]

Extremely creative, great video

[@ElementaryBrewingCo]

Fantastic!!! Cheers Trent 🍻

[@SingPsalms]

Save me a glass! please do more video game drinks! 😛

[@TigerPat_9180]

Really Enjoyed Your Video , Thanks ! 🐯🤠

[@braukorpshomebrew6039]

Warhammer nerd here, and I've made a mead based off of a drink in one of the books. It's fun to create something based off of vague ingredient descriptions and share with other fans.

[@PharmakeiaFilms]

What a neat brew! And just the right amount of Zelda references! haha

[@ManMadeMead]

This looks amazing!! I have to try making this now!!

[@TheBruSho]

I’d love to see your take on it!

[@poisonpotato1]

An ale from the shire in lotr would be cool

[@RegicideBrewing]

Dang Trent, this one was just so amazing and creative, especially the edible glitter! One beer I would love someone to create, is something equivalent to the “Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster”. Most people make a cocktail version of that but it would be interesting to see what a beer version would be.

[@TheBruSho]

Oh very cool I’m going to look into this, thanks Tony!!

[@bradleybarth9939]

Great job! I really need to get a switch first to even play Breath 1!

[@TheAlchemistsBrewery]

What popular drinks from pop culture would I want to see? NUKA COLA.

[@LouB3rt]

*Listen! Awesome video

[@benscarpino4383]

This was awesome! Never wanted to brew a mead more. Also, you might have the best editing of any homebrew channel. Fantastic Zelda homage. 🗡️ 🏹 🍯

[@jstndrst]

This was so awesome. My goodness do i love zelda. Haven't played newer games but I have link to the past on repeat.

[@TheBruSho]

Awesome I tried to throw a ton of references from other games!

[@webermartin25]

Amazing!

[@JeffreySerpas]

Video timed with game launch day 🚀 is a pro move.

[@DointheMost]

Definitely a different take from my recipe! Edible glitter is an interesting choice and, as you say, I can imagine that really makes the bathroom experience magical!

[@TheBruSho]

Haha way more fun! 😅 cheers and thanks for all the great tutorials!

[@PatrickBuckles]

great vid. always educational while hilarious

[@NathanLogsdon-uj3yr]

Me and my wife are vegan and not a fanatic. We eat honey and I brew mead with it. If it weren’t for bees there wouldn’t be any fruits and vegetables for the fanatics to eat! To each his own. Great channel. Did you get to taste the younger this year? It was fantastic especially after the 5 hour wait and I live in Santa Rosa.

[@TheAlchemistsBrewery]

Right now I am fermenting a rye ale, which is silky smooth. So it's almost a magic potion...

[@TMusho]

Let’s see a Chrono Trigger Millennium Fair Ale!

[@TheBruSho]

There’s an idea!

[@NathanLogsdon-uj3yr]

I love your videos on all types of fermentations particularly beer and the saki video. I ‘ve learned a lot and started brewing beer and now mead. I like the video but a couple of things to keep the techniques correct. Did Adam give you any flack about that headspace in secondary?

[@TheApartmentBrewer]

This is so awesome! Love the creativity!

[@sjporr]

This is a awesome video!!! Well done

[@LuisRamirez-vh9pd]

You're a gentleman and a scholar

[@EtherealPrelude]

This was great. I loved all the references and sound bytes. So what is the vegan honey made out of?

[@TheBruSho]

There was a few but this one I used was made from cane sugar I believe

[@nathaningram1779]

Awesome!

[@eduardosilva5143]

Make a Batman and a joker beer. 🧐

[@TheHomebrewChallenge]

Pausing the video to address KZbin comment trolls while dressed as Link. Perfection!

[@matex118]

Very good video !

[@devistater6558]

You finally did a mead! One step closer to a braggot... :)

[@TheBruSho]

Haha yes I’d love to try that!

[@devistater6558]

@@TheBruSho Awesome! I really think a mix of Honey Malt with the Vegan Honey would turn out really good!

[@alexandraentner7196]

Where are you getting your supply of un honey? Im having a hard time finding it online but I 100% want to make this. Also, rock on for making this vegan!!! 🌱

[@TheBruSho]

So this was a stash I got from sprouts a while back but it’s been harder to find these days. Not sure if the company is doing well. But there are some other honey alternatives out there that could work in place of it

[@TatyanaValdaBelindaHill]

Another wonderful video that deserves a ton more views. 🍭 xx

[@RafaelFerreira-du6tx]

Would potassium sorbate be enouth? Why you need both?

[@davidkorlowicz6850]

I have a five gallon fermenter. What would the mix ratio look like ?

[@nickstudlangel]

I’m a huge Lord of the Rings nerd and have several beers named after characters and events from it! Would love to hear your opinion on a LOTR speciality drink 🍻⚔️ cheers!

[@Cowboyx08]

It would be awsome if you made a Butter beer inspired from Harry Potter!

[@TheBruSho]

It's definitely on the list!

[@keithska559]

Make Duff beer 😂

[@TheBruSho]

That is absolutely on the list!

[@AlbeeSoaring]

You made me curios what unhoney is. Looks like its basically flavored can sugar syrup. Thats probably why the honey flavor fell off and you just got raspberries. I want to try thi recipe. looks tasty. Ill do honey though. Thanks for the video.

[@TheBruSho]

So Man Made Mead and me did a collab to see if UnHoney would work for a mead and we both came to that similar conclusion that it lacks the nuance of honey. I think the herbs helped a bit but could have used more. An interesting product and not a perfect honey sub but close enough for now

[@AlbeeSoaring]

@@TheBruSho Hey if it works for you and creates a drink you enjoy. Then to hell what everyone else thinks. Rarely are there any "substitution" products that are as good as the original, but if a person prefers it over the original then more power to them. Like you said " you do you and Ill do me" Or something to that effect.

[@Yakster27]

What fitting did you use to connect ball lock to the t fitting on your spudding valve?

[@samsonb3337]

Had no idea vegan honey exists, looks like I'll finally be able to give mead a go.

[@GarySkadan]

I think it would be cool if you could do a power rangers Ivan Ooze drink

[@ajxn6432]

I would make idea 1

[@bagbyte]

Hi, I just discovered your channel, it seems very interesting. Do you think it’s possible to make any fermentation using dried Goji berries? Or from Spirulina/Alfalfa/Maqui Berry powders usually sold as “healthy” superfood?

[@Unsub-Me-Now]

Nerds are people too.

[@swordboy58]

what does vegan honey taste like? is it good? I've never come across that before

[@boredbeingbored676]

so is vegan honey corn syrup?

[@bigernbladesmith]

I see a few of the brew tubers doin' this, so I thought I'd give it a try. HOWEVER, I want to use some grain to make a braggot or even just a beer. In the game they have both wheat and rice, so I figured some white wheat malt and rice hulls. So here's 2 issues I'm having. What Hylian plant would be close to hops??? I can't think of any, so what do you thing would be a good bittering herb? I also want to stay true to the game and only add 5 ingredients and no I'm not counting yeast. If it is a loophole Reinheitsgebot I insist on getting the same! So what do you think about some berries or some apple to the recipe? Thanks for the vid.

[@CiderWithKevin]

I'm definitely going to use that glitter in a brew. Do you happen to have a link to purchase it online?

[@TheBruSho]

Awesome! It’s a fun addition to play with: amzn.to/45kplKQ

[@nicholaskarako5701]

Not sure if the reason you choose to use vegan honey for this Zelda mead is because you are vegan or whatever the reason is. I am not going to get into the semantics or debate on honey is not an animal product and blah blah blah blah etc or stealing food from an insect or it's not a mead if you don't use honey made by Bee's. This is your brew your channel and you are the one that has to drink it. I am in the process of making my first home brew and hopefully it will have the tasting notes of the poppycock snack. Made a stock from the five corn cobs with a lemon and Myrtle sweet leaves, roasted the corn kernels, popped a cup of popcorn in peanut oil. Used 3 lbs of wildflower honey and the last bit of almond honey I had which was 5.33/oz. I chose magnum hops and an ale yeast with an alcohol tolerance of 9-11%. Not sure if I did the Hydrometer reading right but it read 1.130 or if it was stupid or not adding mocha oak chips during primary fermentation. So far it is bubbling away and color went from a brownish color to a ochre color. I plan on making a an arerglyn version of City Steading lapsang Touching tea mead. At some point I would like to make braggot with the banana honey I made from the recipe from One day one recipe channel. Were I use coconut water and Irish whiskey instead of using water.

[@PartyTimeBrewing]

Love the Nintendo vids! Too bad I don't play video games no more. Maybe once in a while a little bit of Fallout 4. Ok, I'm done. Cheers!

[@kleverich2000]

Could you make a mead based on satisfactory by coffee stain studios

[@SivAggressiv]

Isn't it obvious that you need to make your own Rolling Rock and summon AVGN?

[@TheBruSho]

Wow what an idea!! That would be an unbelievable episode

[@SivAggressiv]

@@TheBruSho

[@dingo4530]

What a fun video! The glitter really makes it look like a video game item. Totally unrelated... But WTF is yeast nutrient? I tried to find out and failed. Nitrogen, amino acids, minerals... Is this freeze dried chicken poop?

[@taylor4tails]

fellow nerds unite!

[@brewingbadTN]

Haters gonna hate! Nintendo 4Life!

[@sarzootashoota351]

I'm a non vegan honey user but I will never begrudge someone their choices. It's still a mead in my book.

[@bear1050]

3:20 You're not making real mead, bro. You took the time to let me comment, so I did! Lol, just buggin
