Good Mead

Good Mead was one of the smaller of the Ten Towns of Icewind Dale. It sat on the northwestern shore of Redwaters, south of the Eastway trade road.

"Cut south off the Eastway after the trees thin out, n' keep walking… that'll be Good Mead."

Geography
Two roads extended out from Good Mead, one that went southwest to Dougan's Hole and another one northeast to Easthaven.

Trade
While Good Mead's economy was originally based on the fishing of knucklehead trout from nearby Redwaters lake, by the mid-14 century DR they received little profit from their catches. As a whole, the town focused on brewing their famous mead, that they sold in the merchant town of Bryn Shander.

History
For many years, Good Mead and Dougan's Hole enjoyed a healthy rivalry with each other.
