Maine Mead Works was founded in 2007 with the goal of re-introducing the world to the oldest of all fermented beverages.  Using wildflower honey, water and our own proprietary yeast strain, we blend ancient tradition and modern science to produce a highly distinctive product at our meadery in Portland, Maine.

In collaboration with South African scholar Dr. Garth Cambray, Maine Mead Works developed a state-of-the-art continuous fermentation system, bringing mead making into the 21st century.  HoneyMaker, a decidedly modern mead — crisp, dry and refreshing — is the result.
