Q: Will member-exclusive mead be served to the public?
A: We will not sell member bottles to the public. We reserve the right to pour members-only mead bottles at festivals or events, should supply allow for such.
Q: What is the release schedule?
A: We plan on releasing member allocations approximately every 2 months. Each release grants you two 375ml (12.7 ounce) member bottles, plus the ability to purchase extra bottles should they be available. We only release mead when we feel that it’s ready to drink, so some batches may take longer to mature. Your club membership may be extended free of charge if there is a delay in producing the member batches.
