Mead

Our meads are brewed in the basement of our Taproom. We use traditional brewing techniques and different varietals of honey. Each honey contributes to the mead’s unique flavor.

At Clear Skies Meadery we use a two step fermentation process followed by aging. Our primary fermentation begins with selecting the type and amount of honey we choose to blend with water to make a solution called “must”. Once primary fermentation is complete, we then add yeast and feed them along the way until this fermentation is complete.

We add spices and/or fruits in our “secondary” fermentation. We let these additions steep in the mead until we get the right flavor profile. The meads are then aged for three to six months before they are placed on tap. This process requires minimal filtration and keeps most of the aromatics (and their delicious flavors!) in the mead.
