    The staff was friendly and glad to share knowledge about mead. I got a flight of the mead and fell…read morein love with all four samples. Loki - was a delightful blend of sweet blueberry and tart cherry, at the end.\ Dark Angel - had a dark blueberry sweetness with a ginger finish that was a tasty treat. Holy Grail - Had a sweet start and a dry finish that would rock with a PB & J sandwich. The Maple - special was full-flavored and a bit earthy and made me think of fall. Will be back to play the table games.

    One of the new breweries in Kalamazoo's is Valhalla on Miller. Turning into the parking lot, I…read moreremembered it was previously an automotive business and I am so glad to see that the building is being used to help better Kalamazoo with another brewery. Walking in the area is open and still in need of work but you can see they are working towards that currently. We reviewed the menu and learned that this was a Meadery at heart. We didn't know this previously but think it is great because there not many of them, let alone in Kalamazoo. We scanned through the tap list and picked out 4 to try and sat down. The owner was sitting at another table with someone that sounded like somewhat of an interview. After a little while he got up and came over to our table and asked if he could sit down with us and show us the vision for the brewery. We welcomed him to join us, we really love talking with beertenders and owners when they have passion in what they do. He had a book with photos of his vision which is going to be Viking based (the name makes that obvious) with some Thor inspiration. You could hear his passion and love for the brewery and what he does when talking about the things to come which made it that much better. Everything looked super cool and I can't wait to see it once completed. The owner shared his past history prior to the brewery which was in films and music, Ben couldn't have related more to this man if he tried. LOL. Be sure to stop in now to try their tasty meads and then once their renovations have been completed, we will be following them on social media to see their progress.
