The party is for club members only and is in lieu of our regular club meeting.
About Strad Meadery
Many years ago, founder Dan Slort began making mead in his garage with his best friend. They decided that others would enjoy the taste as much as they do, so three years ago they opened the Strad Meadery Tasting Room. Strad Meadery is the only meadery in the Sacramento area.
In addition to the tasting room, their mead can be purchased at Whole Foods, Nugget Market and various restaurants. They attend many public events and are excited to share something very different from craft beer and wine. They are proud of their products and have seen a growth in meaderies across the US and people drinking their products.

Hangtown Christmas parade
Another great showing at the Hangtown Christmas Parade! Our Honey Stick Crew had a real workout distributing thousands of honey sticks to all the kids. A big thanks to John, Jack, Michael, Sivia, Jim, Jacque and Rob, Karen, Kris and Kim (sorry if I missed anybody!). You guys rock! The weather was fabulous and it was great seeing the community out and in the holiday spirit!
