Beach Bee Meadery - Curtis Blodgett

Published: March 30, 2022, 2:11 a.m.

This episode features Curtis Blodgett of Beach Bee Meadery.

Curtis began his journey by considering opening a distillery.  He and his wife Madeleine met with distillers to understand the process and what was needed to get started.  They completed a meeting with a rum distiller and to decided to visit a meadery that was close by.  They never had mead and they were totally blown away.  Curtis was familiar with making wine and brewing beer, but he wasn't familiar with mead.  He looked at Madeleine and said, "this is what I want to do".  The whole experience was life changing.  We got to talk mead, cider, yeast, barrels and so much more.
