Black-Briar Mead is a fairly costly mead which can be found at various locations throughout Skyrim. A rarer version of the mead, Black-Briar Reserve, is also available. Black-Briar Mead is a great source of income for those who are low-leveled or low on septims. It costs 10 septims (without perks) and comes in great quantities. For example, stealing all of the mead in Honningbrew Meadery and Black-Briar Meadery will result in about 170-200 Black-Briar Meads. The Dragonborn can then sell this to any Fence, which will result in roughly 2000 File:GoldIcon.png.
