<blockquote><br />
A wonderfully golden liquid, which he kept in a carafe in his desk and served in tiny Belgian liqueur glasses in such small amounts that it seemed futile even to raise it to one's lips — and yet its bouquet and its taste outdid even the oldest Chianti and the best Chateau Yquem to such an extent that to mention them in the same breath was to do injustice to the professor's brew. Fiery though it was, it had the additional effect of making me drowsy....<br />
<br>-[[August Derleth]], "[[The House on Curwen Street (fiction)]]"<br />

Space-Mead is a magical drink that allows a human to withstand journeys through the vacuum and vicissitudes of space. Once the space-mead has been created ([[Brew Space-Mead (spell)]]), the traveler must find a means of transportation through space: among others, the spell [[Contact (spell)|Summon]] [[Byakhee]] can provide an interstellar steed. The traveler then drinks a dose (presumably bringing a return dose along), climbs on, commands the mount, and the journey begins, the subject being transported, almost insensible, to the destination.<br />
