A drinking horn (or several) is a pretty standard bit of kit for your average mead maker/drinker. After gazing longingly at the horns from Jelling Dragon (www.jelldragon.com) and deciding that their excellent and customizable horns were just outside my budget this time around, I instead went for a simpler horn from Viking Shield (www.viking-shield.com)
Living in Toronto, you’d think it would be a dawdle to get supplies for home brewing. Sadly, this isn’t always the case. There are a couple of home wine-and-beer making places roughly within the city, but it’s a real dice roll if they have any particular stock at any given time. Most places that are well stocked are outside the city, which for someone reliant on public transit like myself, just isn’t a viable option.
This being so, I’ve struck out and explored ordering supplies online. One caveat I’ve learned from ordering from other online outlets is to be mindful of shipping and duty charges, so I went looking for a reliable place with a decent online ordering system within Canada. I found clickabrew.com.
I have something of a bracer fetish. No, I have no idea why. I could probably explain it if I had done archery at some point in the past but nevertheless, I rarely go with naked wrists. My usual supply of forearm candy are the rock/goth/head shops in town, but this being the age of the the Internet I took the plunge and ordered two pair from MedievalCollectibles.com.
