A Nutty and Fruity Symphony

Peanut Butter and Jelly mead!?!? GROSS!

Well, that’s what I thought when I first heard of the idea several years ago. To be honest, I’ve never been a big peanut butter fan, so peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were never my thing. Then one day, with some spare time and honey on my hands, I thought “why not give it a try?”

That was one of the best ideas I had yet!


Your Childhood Lunch Just Grew Up.


Creating a new mead is like embarking on a thrilling culinary adventure. The process involves equal parts science, artistry, and a touch of audacity. This time, we decided to embrace the nostalgia of childhood lunches and give them a sophisticated twist. The result? Our latest release: Rebel Lunch, a remarkable peanut butter and jelly mead that's about to challenge everything you thought you knew about mead.


As a meadmaker with a passion for pushing boundaries, I couldn't resist the allure of crafting a mead that marries the comfort of childhood favorites with the complexity of a well-crafted libation. Our Rebel Lunch isn't just a whimsical experiment; it's a special release that holds a special place in our lineup. With a reputation as a fan favorite, it's been a resounding success in the past. In fact, its popularity was so remarkable that this time, we decided to double the batch size. It's a testament to the enthusiasm and curiosity of our community, and we can't wait for you to experience it once again.


So, what exactly goes into crafting a mead that's reminiscent of your childhood lunchbox? Rebel Lunch is a harmonious blend of Concord grape juice and peanut butter flavoring. The result is a symphony of flavors that dance on the palate, evoking memories of simpler times while delighting the senses with a refined twist. And guess what? This medley of flavors was so exceptional that it garnered a coveted medal at the National Honey Board's Mead Crafters Competition. A recognition that speaks volumes about the ingenuity and passion that go into each batch we create.


The tagline "Your childhood lunch just grew up" isn't just a clever phrase; it encapsulates the essence of Rebel Lunch. It's a journey that bridges generations, turning familiar flavors into an elevated experience that's designed to surprise and enchant. Whether you're a peanut butter devotee or someone willing to embrace the unconventional, this mead is a conversation starter, a memory rekindler, and a catalyst for new traditions.
