As Grapes are to Wine, Honey is to Mead

No conversation about mead is complete without an understanding of the honey it is produced from. Our honey is collected from hives placed along a narrow band at the eastern edge of the foothills. This gives our bees access to a wide variety of wildflowers and clover that cover the hills, but limits their exposure to the expansive croplands to the east. In addition to careful hive placement, our honey is meticulously handled, and never pasteurized. All of our meads are produced with Ryan's Honey and that unique flavour comes through in every glass.
Like our honey, our mead changes with the season.  The climate and seasonal bloom drives our Brewer's inspiration one batch at a time...
Most of our mead's are fermented solely from Ryan's Honey, our own product, and the fruits that we use are locally sourced from Alberta farms. 
Our meads have a variety of flavours, and range from sweet to dry, making them great pairings before, during and after dinner. 

Traditional Meads

While there are several different types of mead, a traditional mead consists of the basic ingredients, honey and water. A traditional mead offers a flavour that is somewhat reminiscent of the aromatic grape varieties and can range from sweet to dry. We currently have two different Traditional Mead varieties in stock. 

Fallentimber Traditional Mead

This Traditional Mead has floral aroma, mildly sweet character and a well rounded finish. It has a clean and simple taste. This mead recipe forms the backbone of many of our other spiced and seasonal batches.

Sweet Mead

The traditional sweet mead is our old world style mead. It is comparable in sugar content to a late harvest wine. This is an excellent option for dessert mead.

Specialty Meads

​Our Specialty meads consist of the same base ingredients as our traditional meads but may have additional ingredients or use diversified production methods. These meads may include fruit, spices, or barrel ageing to create truly unique flavor profiles. 

Saskatoon Mead

This fruit infused mead has been fermented with Ryan's honey, Saskatoon berries, rhubarb and a hint of crab apple. The tartness of the fruit and the sweetness of the honey combine for a smooth finish.
$20.00 / bottle $204.00 / case of 12 ​

Pyment

We’ve blended our premium Alberta honey with Naramata Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and a touch of French oak to create this sweet, full-bodied pyment. Only one single batch of Pyment is produced every year.
$20.00 / bottle $204.00 / case of 12 ​

Session Meads

Our Session meads are carbonated and have a lower alcohol content than our tradition and specialty meads. Made for a pint and not a glass, these meads are crisp and refreshing. 

Meadjito
This session mead has been blended to a perfect balance of citrus, sweetness and mint. Using only fresh ingredients and of course our beautiful Ryan’s Honey we have created this mead to be super crisp, clean and consumable. Poured over ice it will produce a pale clear/green that will have the glass sweating and you looking for more!
 $8.00 / bottle $82.00 / case of 12 ​​
Hopped Mead
This session mead has been slightly bittered and flavoured with Chinook and Cascade hops. For honey we have used 75% our beautiful light colored Ryan's Honey, produced mainly from clover, alfalfa and wildflower. The other 25% is carmelized honey which adds a light golden color and body to the finished product.
 $8.00 / bottle $82.00 / case of 12
Honey Buck
​In Alberta’s foothills, our bees constantly work to provide the perfect base for the meticulously crafted contents of this bottle-made just for you. Combining our honey with fresh lemon & ginger provides a spirited, naturally gluten-free ginger lemonade.
