Fascinating piece about the popular misconceptions surrounding the Viking's mead consumption by the @ihr.bsky.social's Simon Trafford in @theconversation.com as well as The Times (www.independent.co.uk/life-style/f...) and The Independent (www.thetimes.com/uk/history/a...)

I've written about mead and its popular perception for The Conversation. theconversation.com/the-truth-ab... Mildly concerned that by pointing out that the Vikings (probably) didn't drink (much) mead, I will have annoyed all the re-enactors, many of whom have swords oh dear.
The truth about Vikings and mead might disappoint modern enthusiasts
The standard drink was far more likely to be ale.
