The Fat Friar’s Meadery is a Maine farm winery that specializes in the creation of Mead. We are located in Newcastle, Maine just off of Route 215 approximately 1 mile from the head of Damariscotta Lake.
Because our Mead is made with the finest ingredients, and is never rushed, the quality and taste are of the highest standards.
While at our Meadery don't forget to stop at the Mead Tasting Area which opens on May 2, 2012 and look for us in restaurants and stores throughout Maine. The Fat Friar’s Meadery is a member of The Maine Winery Guild and is listed on the Maine Wine Trail. Our product is also available during the Friday session of the Damariscotta River Associations Farmers Market.

The Fat Friar’s Capsumel
An experiment with sweet and spicy, the Fat Friar added chili pepper to his mead and found the results to be extraordinary. This mead has a kick, but not too hot. The spice invigorates you and goes well with any dish that may be in need of a hint of spice. Chocolate goes well with this too. Some folks have turned this into a cocktail by adding pineapple juice and lime and it is called The Newcastle Stingah.

The Fat Friar’s Mead
This semi dry mead is classified as a show mead by the fact that it is nothing but Honey and water fermented. The aromas of wildflower and honey are pronounced with a slightly zestful finish. This is slightly oaked to add complexity and character. This mead lends itself well to Mediterranean dishes like olives and hummus, or Scallops.

The Minstral Richard’s Cherry Mellomel is a Mead made with dark cherries. This slightly fruity mead is best described as velvety. Similar to a dry Rose’ it accompanies a white fish well, or serves as a great sipping mead served slightly chilled.
