How did it go, I wanted to know? The reception has been phenomenal. House Bear Brewing occupies about 1, square feet in a repurposed, s brick mill building in Amesbury. The mill stands at the edge of the rushing Powwow River. The Powwow crashes right through the center of Amesbury and once provided the waterpower needed for the early industrial development of the town. The historic building houses the brewery and a variety of other small businesses, including Ovedia Chocolates, Workspace 36, and Pause Yoga.
With its warm brick walls and cave-like atmosphere, House Bear Brewing is a little old-world, a little Willy Wonka. Spread throughout the space is an assortment of huge barrels, hanging coils of tubing, giant plastic funnels, and oversized glass beakers.
Beth and Carl, who both work full-time at the brewery, often build their own tools to suit specific purposes in the brewing process. They hand mix. They keep track of their specimens in a handwritten, spiral notebook noting barrel numbers, taste, appearance, which honey was used and where it was purchased, etc. All the bottling is done on site. The brewery also has a small tasting area where Carl and Beth offer mead samples along with a well-curated selection of foods that complement the meads.
Like beer, which results from fermenting the sugars in grains, or wine, which is made by fermenting the sugars in grapes, mead is made by fermenting the sugars in honey with water. It may be dry, semi-dry or sweet. It may be still or sparkling. Mead can take on an enormous breadth of flavor profiles. The promise of unique flavors, the sheer versatility of mead is what Beth loves about the beverage, what keeps her experimenting with combinations and additions, tweaking the yeast here, adding more spice there.
In her lab, she is the queen bee? It won the gold medal in the Professional category. With the rise in the popularity of craft cocktails, craft beer, and house-made spirits, mead is slowly leaving the fringes of the movement.
Mustard Honey mg. We believe that the spirit of our mead craft is best conveyed by independent artists and designers.
Each label was crafted with passion. Anand is passionate about storytelling and is usually seen carrying multiple sketchbooks and sketching in public places, which is how we chanced upon him - we noticed him by himself in a coffee shop, sketching us!
We got chatting and stayed in touch for nearly a year, with the hope of a collaboration. Once our label framework was in place, we finally got a chance to check that box and commissioned Anand to design the label for our flagship - the Apple Cyder Mead. Sachin Bhatt loves creating strange images that can cause one to be weirdly amused or slightly uncomfortable.
He works with blankfound as an album art illustrator for the independent music scene in India, with his sister. Being a musician himself, a lot of his artworks relate to the moods and emotions he sees while listening to music. He has an undying love for water closets, chicken wings, and electro-synth pop musik!

They've worked on brands like Rubberband products and Taj, so imagine our surprise when they agreed to work on our first brand identity - the iconic 'Mm' Under the new identity, we were looking for artists to help design our first MeadLab and felt it only fitting that asdswow helps us with the first one - the Christmas Apple Pie Mead.
Mumbai based Aniruddh Mehta, popularly known as thebigfatminimalist, is many things. A designer, visual artist, art director, DJ and more. He enjoys working with primitive shapes and patterns which made him a good candidate for a moonshine label. He uses his art to give himself space to breathe in the city that never rests.
Karan Kumar is an identity designer and Illustrator from Mumbai, India. The Raging Parrot is his brainchild! Our designer for the label is Nikhil More, the founder of junglegymstudio, a boutique design agency filled with creative minds. When he's not designing, he likes to spend his time with his family and animals amidst nature. Rupam Raul's superpower lies in the fact that he doesn't subscribe to any particular design style and is always excited to work on something new.
He believes that this helps him avoid falling into a creative rut and we couldn't agree more! When Rupam isn't experimenting with design, he is learning the science behind 3D software or stirring up a delicious meal for himself!
We can't wait for him to pair the mango chilli with his beautiful dishes! Nupur designed this label to radiate the vivid overprinted handmade vibe that reflects the bright flavours of Kaffir lime and Galangal.
The bees represent the real honey that goes into making Meads. We love how this label takes a completely different direction from all of our labels so far - something we enjoy and look forward to by working with different artists for all our labels! Sagarika is an architect based in Mumbai with a keen interest in urbanism and graphic design and an even keener interest in biryani! We approached Sagarika to design this label way back in the beginning of And then the first wave hit.
And so when she ended up designing this label during the first lockdown, like a lot of us, she imagined herself at a happy place - on the beaches of the Konkan. In her mind, she saw a ginger-haired woman quite literally , walking along a warm, sunny beach while looking for a cold refreshing beverage to drink.
She chose a bright colour scheme to make the label really pop, adding a texture to give the pop art design a more retro dimension.
Mead is a refreshing break for me from the regular run of the mill beers and wines. Moonshine Meads are beautifully crated by passionate people and is pure art in a pint.
