ABOUT THE BREWERY:
Known for the most amazing and creative alcoholic beverages made from honey, B. Nektar makes meads, ciders, and beers that extend beyond the traditional – they let their imaginations guide them. B. Nektar was the first meadery to join the ranks on the Top 100 Best Breweries in the World by Ratebeer.com.

THE B.NEKTAR STORY:
B. Nektar Meadery was founded in 2006 by Brad and Kerri Dahlhofer. Brad has been an avid homebrewer since 1998, making beers, meads, ciders, and wine for his own enjoyment. When Brad and Kerri got married in 2005, he made a mead to toast with at their wedding and received great reviews from the guests. Jokingly, he said that he’d someday open a meadery. They soon began making meads in their basement and those meads quickly began winning awards at homebrewing competitions.
In the summer of 2006, Kerri was laid-off from her job. While sipping a glass of vanilla cinnamon mead made by Brad, she thought, “Why not try to sell this?” It was then that they decided to take their mead making to the next level. In the spring of 2008, Brad too fell victim to layoffs, and the they worked night and day to prepare for their opening. After nearly two years since its inception, B. Nektar finally opened its doors on August 2, 2008 (National Mead Day).

B. Nektar’s session meads and hard ciders are now shaping the craft revolution.  To say it’s been a long road from the home-brewing days would be a tremendous understatement, but B. Nektar continues to increase their production capacity and is currently the largest meadery in the U.S.A.  Learn more here, and follow them on Untappd.
