Johnny,
Depending on how you handle it, just about any wine yeast can make
a good mead. I've had good results with Lalvin 71B-1112 & EC-1118,
as well as Danstar Nottingham. Fermaid, yeast hulls, whatever you have
generally will work as a nutrient for mead.

What kind of gravity are you starting with, how sweet do you want
it when it's done? What kind of honey? Are you adding any fruit, etc?

You might want to consult the rec.crafts.meadmaking news group, or
hit up www.gotmead.com for a lot of information on the topic.
