Happy Holidays everyone!

Christmas and the New Year are right around the corner and we know you are looking for fun activities and special gifts.

We currently have three cases of Melia left (a single varietal Orange Blossom mead) and five cases of Odin. If you were hoping to have a bottle for the Holidays today is one of the last days to order from VinoShipper to ensure delivery by Christmas. As an added bonus if you order before tomorrow (12/12) at 11:59 PST you can use code “HappyChristmas” to receive 15% off qualifying meads and cysers in your order.

We will be hosting our Ugly Sweater & Holiday Cookie Swap on 12/22/17. We will be open from 2pm – 9pm, but will get the party started around 5pm. Please feel free to come dressed in your ugliest sweater or bring cookies to swap with other guests! We will be serving a house mulled mead and bumping your favorite holiday tunes.

Also make sure to mark those calendars— Our annual Soup Cook-Off is coming up on 1/10/17. Entry details & rules can be found here

We can’t believe it’s already 2017! We have some exciting things planned for this year (you’ll have to wait and see!) as well as participation in some awesome upcoming local events. Brewmaster & Owner Mike will be visiting UC Davis for the annual Intro to Mead Making course, and in February we’ll be pouring at a handful of festivals like the Bacon & Beer Classic and the 8th Annual Meet the Brewers at Hermitage.

This Thursday marks the beginning of Food Truck Thursdays at the Meadery.

Stop by any Thursday from 5pm – 8pm for a quick bite and pair it with one of our famous cysers, braggots, or meads! 

In a few short weeks we will be releasing a small run of 60 bottles of our award winning 3L  “War Hammer” Extra Dry, Hard Apple-Honey Cyser.

We will be offering pre-orders within our tasting room until it’s release on March 16th, 2016.

Limit 1 per person, $85, 10% ABV.

If you’ve ever been to our tap & tasting room, you’ve probably noticed the wall of mugs. 
While we cannot guarantee a spot, this is the formal announcement that the sign up date is rapidly approaching and if it’s been in the back of your mind make sure to stop by on Tuesday, February 2, 2016 by opening at 2pm for your chance at a spot on the wall!

Memberships are available on a FIRST COME FIRST SERVED basis. Current members get a window to renew, however the mugs that do not get renewed by the Jan 30th deadline will be up for grabs on Feb 2nd. 

Getting a spot can be a tall task—we have even had customers camp out for hours for a chance to be first in line (think Black Friday at WalMart). So arrive early to improve your odds! 

Here are a couple perks of what a $100 membership gets you:

+ A mug on the wall, with your picture for the year.
+ Rewards to equal 1 free pint for every 4 purchased.
+ $12 Growler refills and eligible specialty products when available.
+ Regular pint prices on specialty tap selections.
+ Mug Club member card
+ Free Birthday Pint
+ Annual catered appreciation dinner @ RMF the last Sunday of June (In pervious years we have done BBQ & a Lobster Bake).

+ Auto RSVP to RFM hosted events

Best of luck, and we can’t wait to see who will be joining us this year!
