We’re keeping the tastings rolling this week with our friends from Montpelier Vineyards! The team at Vermont’s first certified organic winery has been crafting cold-weather-varietal wines for nearly 30 years, but have recently dipped a toe into some new waters: mixed fruit co-ferments and mead production. Stop in this Friday to try a little of everything!
All tasting participants must be 21 years of age or older.
We’ve got another tantalizing tasting for you this Friday, and you will not want to miss this one. Alex from Golden Rule will be behind the bar pouring his truly one-of-a-kind meads.

~ Mead Menu ~
Valkyrie’s Choice – Classic Craft Mead | Groennfell Meadery | 8.5% ABV – Gluten Free
This mead may be pretty, but don’t be fooled: like its namesake, it is neither sweet nor weak. Valkyrie’s Choice pours pale gold and bubbly. Serve at cellar temperature to fully enjoy the superb flavor and aroma of wildflower honey.
Nordic Farmhouse Mead – Scandinavian Saison-Style Mead Brewed with Cranberries | Groennfell Meadery | 5.7% ABV – Gluten Free
Nordic Farmhouse Mead is inspired by The Meadmaker’s travels throughout Scandinavia where he discovered traditional lingonberry meads fermented with wild yeast, brewed in homes throughout Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, just as it has been since the Viking Era.
Our take on this ancient beverage is an incredible fusion of old-world brewing techniques, Scandinavian farmhouse yeast, and American ingredients.
Autumn Spice – Craft Mead Brewed with Traditional Havest Spices and Chamomile Tea | Groenfell Meadery | 5.7% ABV – Gluten Free
Autumn Spice is based on Nana’s Hungarian Apple Cake, with a perfect balance of chamomile tea, nutmeg, anise, and cinnamon in a crisp, clean mead.
Whose Nana? The Meadmaker’s Nana! And she was a Hungarian-trained chef. So there.
This is the perfect pint for cool Autumn days and the first flakes of the coming Winter.
Psychopomp – Sour Cherry Mead | Havoc Mead | 6.9% ABV – Gluten Free
Psychopomp is a sour cherry mead based on a traditional style of mead known as “Viking’s Blood.” Tart cherry blends smoothly with a dry honey body for a balanced, flavorful drinking experience.
Bitter Bee / Hop Swarm – Hopped Mead | Havoc Mead | 6.9% ABV – Gluten Free
Formerly known as Bitter Bee, Hop Swarm is a perfect combination of wildflower honey and seven different hops to create a balanced, crushable mead.
Unlike most beverages, the hops in this mead are never boiled, providing the complex taste of dry-hopping with none of the bitterness.
