We are proud to be North Alabama's first meadery. We call ourselves a MICRO meadery due to our very small square footage, focusing on very small handcrafted batches (5-55 gallons).

Ravenwood Meadery is located inside Studio 2069 at Lowe Mill ARTS & Entertainment, a cotton mill built in 1901, converted into over 150 working studios that house 200+ artists, makers, independent businesses, and restaurants. We are immensely proud to be direct neighbours of Irons One whiskey distillery, Dragon's Forge Cafe, and the largest art gallery inside the complex.

We conduct sales of bottles in our sales room when they are available. We post here and on social media as soon as we have firm dates. Due to our small production, bottles to take home are not always available, but we do have 1000ml growlers & fills.

We have a have a small tasting bar where you'll be able to enjoy house mead on tap as well as mead cocktails and seasonal drinks. The tasting bar operates each day we are open, and have a cozy seating area for you to relax in. You can also make a reservation for the group table for you and your friends.

How to find us at Lowe Mill ARTS & Entertainment:

Park near the guard shack at the entrance gate.

From the guard shack, follow the concrete path around the side of the building, enter through door 30.

We are at the top of the stairs next to Dragon's Forge Cafe.

STUDIO: 2069 (yellow route, 2nd floor north)

For those who need accessibility:

Park in the water tower lot in front of Tangled String. There is a ramp to get onto the docks.

Enter through door 13, there are ride on scooters available at the office.

Take the elevator to floor 2b.

Make your way straight ahead through the connector and turn left, we are at the end of the hallway.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

In addition to mead, we offer some great merchandise to go with it.

Various styles and sizes of drinking horns; horn cups, mugs and tumbers; tshirts (sizes small to burly viking!); rune carved pendants; beard combs; etc. Can't figure out what to get for your friends? Grab a gift card and let them choose for themselves.
