I agree, the local craft brewing businesses should all be making mead. So many people honeymoon on Hawaii, and the term honeymoon can be traced to the medieval tradition of drinking honey wine (mead) for a full cycle of the moon after marriage. It was believed to bring good luck and fertility. More than likely the alcohol eased the new couple's inhibitions leading to the fertility part and limiting it to one lunar cycle helped prevent fetal alcohol syndrome.
