What better way to enjoy a warm spring, or summer afternoon than with a refreshing Peach Lemonaid Mead, Phantom Style. This simple recipe will quench your thirst, and set the mood.

Wow! 11 years ago I set the Brew Hop Bus free on the world 😆… the next thing will be out in far less time than that.

It’s been a year. Hard to believe. Thanks to everyone that helped make my dream come true. Thanks to my family and friends that helped me see it was time to find a new story.

Went to Old Stump Brewing Co. today. Fat Mosey is about the closest it comes to Flying Brick I’ve seen.

If you’re missing Phantom Phresh made food, I have to recommend BombHoagie in Simi Valley. Went yesterday, one of the best Philly Cheesesteak’s I’ve ever had!

To you and yours, we wish you a Happy New Year. We promise we will work to find a local brewery to make Flying Brick 🙂 I also promise I’m not done searching for a new home, and maybe some day Cran Pom Mead will return as well. These last few years were a struggle for health, both physically and mentally. This time off has been so awesome for me. Thank you! God willing Phantom Rum may well be a thing too.
