Thousands and thousands of years ago, humans discovered that honey, yeast, and water created an amazing, intoxicating beverage, now known as mead. For years, this was a popular drink across all continents, until, for some reason, beer, wine, and other spirits took over the industry. In fact, mead hasn’t been made in Delaware for over one hundred years… that is, until Liquid Alchemy opened up the first modern Delaware meadery.
If you’ve attended any food festivals in Delaware over the past year or so, chances are you’ve sampled some of Liquid Alchemy Beverages’ meads or ciders.

It’s actually hard to find mead in Delaware, and Liquid Alchemy was the very first meadery in the state.
Facebook / Liquid Alchemy Beverages Mead has been around for over 20,000 years, making it possibly the world’s oldest alcoholic beverage. It’s made by fermenting honey with water, fruits, and a few additional ingredients. The result is a sweet, hoppy beverage that’s incredibly drinkable.
