Super friendly and knowledgeable staff, super dog-friendly and the meadery drinks were pretty good too.

Little pricey but very excellent. Nice range of different meads. Particularly liked the Peach Cobbler barrel aged.

Always a great experience every time we come here. Veteran owners and they offer a Veteran discount! Great mead and beer selection. 3 nice wines and a fantastic atmosphere! Highly recommended!

Always love going to Etowah meadery, it is veteran owned and operated, which is awesome cause my wife is a veteran and I support our troops, best draft mead you will find and the standard mead is great, if you go try grandma's apple pie, best draft mead on tap, and the staff is always great. Always my go to for a mead fix

Stopped in after a visit to Dahlonega for a little break from the cold. The room is large and comfortable with several different seating areas. It wasn't busy when we arrived but quickly filled up soon after. They offer both regular and sparkling mead, beer and wine. I ordered a mead flight and the bartender was super helpful in making sure I ordered ones I would enjoy. All of my choices were very tasty but the Drunken Peach Cobbler was my favorite. It's a great place to stop if you want a break from the wineries.

Stopped in for a couple beers, I don’t usually like mead but really enjoyed enjoyed the ones they had to offer. Brandon was very friendly and helpful and the staff were very welcoming and made us feel at home. The live music they had was very enjoyable. Will definitely make my way back up.

Great spot to hang out, bring your dogs, play some yard games, and listen to live music. If you’re not a fan of meads, don’t worry, they also have beers. My favorite meads are the RB&B and the Georgia Standard. We make a point of stop here every time we’re in Dahlonega. Staff is great also, super friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic service. So polite, helpful and friendly. Gave away free coasters and bumper sticks with their logo; free advertising I suppose. ?

Nice folks, and an interesting approach to beer. Lots of variety in beer and mead.
We had stopped in Helen for a weekend getaway and saw the meadery on the way in on Friday.Saw the hours were supposed to be open at 11 for Sunday which was perfect timing.Showed up at 1130 and the place was closed, called and tried to talk to someone to see what time they were supposed to be open, no answer, left a message.Highly disappointed, was looking to add new meads to the collection

Mead and beer in the same place! This place is awesome!! Great ambiance. Awesome selection. The bartender was awesome and explained all the different varieties. If you need a break from the wineries, check out Etowah Meadery!

My wife and I made the trek up this past weekend to visit the wine country of NE Georgia. If you do plan to stop here take it slow because it will sneak up on you around a slight curve. We visited many different establishments and while it is certainly nice here it isn't quite what you think of as a winery. Everything is made with honey. Either my taste was off or maybe the taps needed to be cleaned. There was also no food on the particular day we went though they said they sometimes had food trucks - which still just isn't the same. We got a "flight" and just weren't really sure what to do. The activities are incredibly limited and the disheartening part were the children unattended in the parking lot. This place is probably a sad accident waiting to happen. I truly wanted to enjoy but I think the savior for this place would be a larger building with more parking and actual vineyards where one could walk around. There probably is a market here, though, given the awards. Edit: After reading some of the locals (I assume) complaints about the noise and funeral interruption, I probably wouldn't have stopped anyways. We should all strive to co-exist and interruption of a baby's funeral and attacks toward a preacher don't really cut it for me. I hoped that wasn't true but I asked locals and as many as three or four said it was every bit true.

I stopped here on a recent weekend trip. Although it was an easy drive from the downtown of Dahlonega, when we arrived it was empty. It was about noon on a Saturday so maybe a little early for some day drinkers. However, I LOVED the drinks I got to try. My favorite was the sparkling mead. The sweet hot fuzz, made with honey, peaches and habanero peppers, had the perfect balance of sweetness and a kick. If you're looking for something a little different during your traditional tour of GA wine county, I would stop here for a taste of honey wine!
