New shop just opened in West Reading with some of the best Meads I have ever tasted…read more Super friendly service with lots of helpful information about the products. They have free tasting which is now allowed. I tried the straight up version ,"It's not you, It's Mead, which is a true essence of honey but not cloyingly sweet. The" Just a Simple Boring Name", made with Chamomile and Lemon Drop Hops , is like a perfect cup of tea with honey and lemon. My final selection was the Black Currant Mead. It is dry and has a nice kick with 13.5 % alcohol. Delicious wine that would match with many savory foods. I also purchased a bottle of raw honey made by Lisa's Bee Farm in nearby Birdsboro. It is only available this time of year and is absolutely delicious on toast. Lisa was there today and was very friendly. This business has just opened during a difficult time and can use all the support they can get. You will get an excellent product and will be supporting a new local business. You will be glad you did.

Really cool place to check out for some different stuff. If you're in to mead then this is a place…read more Just as an FYI - all of their mead is Gluten Free so they don't have any Braggots (mead made with grains) so a lot of their stuff is sweeter and lighter. I would have appreciated a little bit of a heavier bodied mead but since they are GF, I can understand their lines. Huge variety of meads to try, bottles to buy and a wide variety of them on tap for flights. They have different styles of flights. Our server was really knowledgable and helped make the experience better. They have a yearly club that has some cool perks like a custom drinking horn and a free tasting of every new mead the make.

I've enjoyed visits to both their Fleetwood and Jim Thorpe tasting rooms. I really dig the medieval vibe. It makes both locations feel unique, and not quite like your typical tasting room experience. This is the type of place you would bring someone if they were visiting from out of town and we're looking for something off the beaten path. While Stonekeep produces both wine and mead, it is the latter which truly stands out. My favorite selections are the Red Raspberry Melomel and the Blue Muninn. Both offerings are absolutely delicious, and an excellent way to introduce someone to mead who may not be familiar with the drink. Both are excellent on their own, but really hit a whole new level when paired with chocolate. Consider busting out these meads for your after dinner course when entertaining at home. Or, if you're by yourself, feel free to pour yourself a glass and sit in front of the fireplace.

Very down-to-watch/approachable and willing to do whatever they could to ensure our event was a success! Their meade is delicious and comes in a variety of flavors, yet all presented in a way that doesn't detract from meade's unique qualities. I highly recommend stopping by their tasting room in Bethlehem for a one-of-a-kind experience!

The mead isn't as sweet as we're used to and has more of a wine taste. A nice balance and classy! It's a new location so when we visited the tasting room wasn't open yet, but we were able to go inside their shop and sample their meads and have a glass, buy bottles, and look at merch. The indoors is dog friendly and they also have an outdoor tent if you order to be outside. The owners pup is onsite and so cute!

A GF sent me a TikTok reel of the Brewery since she has celiac & I have a GF intolerance. My husband & I enjoyed both of our flights we got. As seen in the picture provided I did a cider flight as well as my husband. Then my husband decided to try the meads and did a flight of those. I ended up just getting a 4 Oz of another cider. The staff were super helpful with recommendations & they were super friendly! We enjoyed the environment of the Brewery as well! Will definitely have to take a trip back again soon!

Wow. This place is incredible. Looks like a typical NJ brewery both inside and out (located in an…read moreindustrial park with the usual exposed beam ceiling and concrete floors inside) but plot twist: they only brew ciders and meads. No beer. But the ciders and meads are phenomenal. My girlfriend and I stopped in yesterday on a Saturday afternoon, which was our first time there. We each tried a cider flight and a mead flight and loved everything. Definite standouts for me were the Mother Muse and Tulsi (both had a nice mix of sweet fruit taste with a hint of herbs like rosemary and basil) and the Ayamarcay with its decadent peanut/chocolate flavor. The story of how this place came to be is just as incredible. Founding member Christian Annese was misdiagnosed many years ago with Celiac, which led him to the world of ciders and meads. At the time, NJ laws made it incredibly difficult to brew quality cider, and mead was effectively illegal. So Christian and his partners worked tirelessly with NJ legislators to change the law, and in 2020 Armageddon opened for business. Highly recommend a visit. We will definitely be back!
