Ragnarok Meads

Ragnarok Meads is devoted to the art of crafting mead with unparalleled authenticity, tradition, and reverence for Norse mythology. We honor the ancient practices of mead-making by blending the finest locally sourced honey with the most authentic ingredients rooted in Old Norse, Scandinavian, and Proto-Germanic traditions. Each brew is crafted with cultural integrity, carrying the spirit of the Viking Age into the present and delivering a high-quality, true cultural experience with every sip. At Ragnarok Meads, variety, flavor, and craftsmanship are at the heart of everything we do. Our brews are deeply rooted in the historical essence of mead, celebrating the rituals and traditions of the past while providing a refined, modern taste. Whether it is for a feast, a celebration, or simply a toast to the gods, our meads embody the rich heritage and artistry of Viking culture. 

Our creed (Home-Heritage-Honey) reflects the core values of Ragnarok Meads. For each word carries significant weight in Norse culture:

Home-Represents identity, grounding, and origin.

Heritage-Signifies the passing down of culture, tradition, and values.

Honey-Center to the production of mead, symbolizing celebration, community, and ritual in viking times.

What is Mead?

Mead is an ancient, fermented beverage, with honey as its heart and soul. Though honey remains the

core ingredient, mead also embraces grains like barley and oats, as well as a variety of spices and

fruits. This rich and diverse tradition has traveled through the ages, finding its place across many

ancient cultures; from Egypt to Greece, Mesopotamia to Germania, and, of course, the Nordic lands.

To call it simply "honey wine" fails to capture its depth, variety, and connection to heritage.

As one of the oldest forms of fermented drink, mead’s origins trace back to the earliest civilizations.

Despite its timeless legacy, mead today remains less renowned than beer or wine, due to the labor of

harvesting honey, a process more demanding than growing hops or grapes. Yet, in Viking culture,

mead was more than a drink; it was a symbol of ritual, celebration, and connection to the gods. At

Ragnarok Meads, we honor this connection, pouring forth the spirit of Norse tradition with every drop.

We carry forward the ancient craft of mead-making; where each pour is a tribute to heritage,

craftsmanship, and excellence. As a proud subdivision of Ginnungagap LLC, Ragnarok Meads

continues the legacy of this revered beverage, steeped in Norse mythology and the richness of the

ancient world.
