IMPORTANT Blue Ambrosia update

We want to let our Blue Ambrosia customers know that we’ve become aware of an unexpected issue affecting some bottles located at Howley Estates, Kelsey Drive, and Gander NLC locations.
Several bottles have undergone unexpected re-fermentation after bottling. Our quality checks showed the mead was stable when it was bottled, but sometimes Mother Nature has other ideas when it comes to a natural product.
We’re asking anyone who purchased Blue Ambrosia from those locations on or around AUGUST 10 to return their purchase to any NLC location for a full refund.
We’re genuinely sorry for the inconvenience. We take the quality of our mead—and the trust you place in us—very seriously.
Merfolk Mead is still in its early days, and this experience is giving us an opportunity to add another layer of quality assurance around the aging and pre-bottling stage of our process. We’re always learning, refining, and working to make our mead better.
Thank you to everyone who has supported our endeavours to date and to those who brought this issue to our attention. We’re incredibly grateful for you all ❤️

When you brew and grew up with Star Trek…

To Boldy Brew!
I see Trek everywhere...talk about imprinting. And I'm always amused when it pops up during a brew sesh :-)

Nothing like when two loves combine ❤️

Happy brewing and may mead (and legendary television) be on your table!

It starts with one brick.

Every task that you do, every day that you spend working and crafting and getting better is like making a brick.
And you place that brick, and the wind won’t blow it away and the rain won’t wash it away.
It stays there.

You keep making these bricks, one after the other, placing them beside the ones that came before, and soon enough you have a wall.
Day after day, something slowly takes shape. Before you know it, there’s a house, and everybody around you is asking how you built it.
And the answer is very simple.

You built it one brick at a time.

Everything we do takes time. To build something well and lasting you need to lean into this. I think of my craft and business in this way, everyday. It’s practice. It’s repetition. It can be slow. It’s not for everyone. But you won’t know unless you try, so go on and make yourself some bricks (and drink some mead while you’re at it).

May mead be on your table x

What a glorious Saturday it is - and the perfect day (but really what isn’t?) for a glass of mead 🍷🍷

Stop by Howley Estates or Churchill Square and grab a bottle or two of our delightfully delectable libation, Blue Ambrosia. This sweet 9% melomel-style blueberry mead is literally summer in a glass 😎

Serve her chilled or on ice, and enjoy the day as it was meant to be - with a glass of mead in hand🍷🧜‍♀️

I’m always practicing, always experimenting. At my commercial production site and at home. Always learning, always refining - making sure everything I put on NLC shelves has been made dozens of times before hand. Practice is how you improve and it’s where I stay inspired. So if you’re wondering, is mead-making a good hobby? 🍷💫

Yes...yes it is. As long as you’re open to the possibility of it completely taking over your life (and house). I started making mead for the pure love and joy of crafting and that hasn’t changed❤️🍷🧜‍♀️

May mead be on your table (and possibly in the cupboards, cabinets and closets too 🤓)
