Place is so good I bought a membership and now get 4 bottles per quarter. Love the mead and the events and ambiance here are top shelf. Owner seems passionate about what he does and their flavor themes are a lot of fun. I try to come here monthly, I really hope their business continues to thrive. read more

Amongst all the wineries in Temecula, there is Batch Mead tucked away just outside the main part of town. I personally like mead more than wine, and upon my visit to Temecula, I was excited to be able to try this place! We came in during a lull, and the owner Derek was there to personally serve us. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly an excellent maker of mead. He even has a variety of fun events you can sign up for like Viking nights where they have axe throwing and turkey legs, as well as Mead-Making classes with the man himself. We went with two of the flights: the new seasonal flavors and the classics. I was a big fan of the seasonal flavors, they were sweet and crisp, and the different fruit flavors really shone through. I liked the Thor's Courage the best of the classics flight, it was a sparkling mead that tasted the most like just classic honey mead. We asked for a recommendation based on our likes, and he offered us a glass of the Golden Butter Bee Mead, and it tasted as good as it sounded. It kinda was what I think Butterbeer should taste like. We ended up taking a bottle home. He also shared with us that he started his company in 2019, right before the pandemic, and he was able to survive by using his own truck to deliver mead all over the country. If that isn't a testament to his dedication to the craft and the quality of the mead, I'm not sure what is. Will definitely be back when I'm by Temecula, and I want to try to make one of the events sometime soon! read more

Batch Mead was an unplanned stop on our Temecula wine tour, as we both have an affinity for mead as well so we wanted to take a break to switch it up a bit. I could not have been more happy to have had the chance to come here! Derek is extremely friendly, and Batch Mead hosts multiple monthly events from their viking nights to their mead making courses; he is so incredibly knowledgeable in his craft, it is delightful to just sit and take the time to listen to him talk about his passion. Built into an industrial park (like many breweries today), the decor was incredibly tasteful and I really appreciated what he was able to do with the space to make it warm and welcoming, down to the glasses he used to serve the drinks. Now to the Mead itself, we ordered two taster flights as well as a glass of the Golden Butter Mead. To sum up my feelings about the entire ensemble, absolute perfection! Of all the mead I have had (which is a surprisingly large amount), Batch Mead blew my mind. If I was ever to try and describe what good mead should be, Derek's would be what I was describing to a tea. They ranged from semi-sweet to very sweet, but were all absolutely amazing and worth the drive up to Temecula alone. I will not only be returning, but this will likely become a staple in my drinking rotation! read more

We love mead and good places are hoard to find! This one is so fun and friendly and the base mead is great- so it's fun to delight your tastebuds with their unique flavors- we will be back for sure and bring friends to share read more

Not many mead places to visit in the area so stopping here is almost a requirement. We had 2 flights to sample and most of them were on the sweet side of the spectrum, but not overly sweet. We bought some bottles to bring home to taste with friend. The place isn't cheap but it was a good experience. read more

This place was good. The Meade is INCREDIBLY SWEET even the ones described as lower sugar. It was a little sugary for me and I have a sweet tooth. The fruity Meade was better but still was crazy sugar packed. The service was a little slow to start when they open at 3, there is a class before and they spent 30 minutes cleaning up and serving the people from the class. Our reservation was for 3 but we could barely flag them down. It's small and in a weird industrial park so the location is weird, but it was comfortable and they didn't rush us. It was ok, wouldn't make a trip for this but may stop by if it was convenient. read more

Popped in on a Saturday afternoon when we were passing by the area. I've been wanting to try Batch Mead for a while now! The meadery was a small, clean and airy industrial space tucked between other businesses. The staff were friendly, informative , and quick. They had a good variety of meads and all tasted very good and definitely strong! I could tell they use quality ingredients as I could taste the distinct flavors in my drink! I would bring my friend next time and highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

Derek was serving us and he's a really sweet dude like his Mead. We tried all 3 flights (12 different meads). Most were sweet, few were too sweet, and a few too strong for me. The King of the Sea and Phantom of the Opera were my favorites. Honestly a really good deal for the price! The vibes were good we came here to pregame before heading to old town but I can see this being great spot for date night or just hanging out. read more

Not too much of a sweet alcohol fan but wanted to try something new! Batch mead is in a small business area, parking is pretty easy since there is a large space. Shop itself is small with few table and counter seating in addition to board games. Flights of 4 cost $20, I got the butter, viking mod, Sea nymths oath, and the sirens song. Each flight comes with the tasting notes on a card, which is a great addition while sipping. I liked the viking mod, super honey forward and not overly sweet. We played games while we sipped which is good entertainment. We didn't get any bottles here but this is a unique mead brewery worth checking out. read more

Fantastic vibes and mead! Like most meaderies this place is tucked away in a little industrial lot but the interior is warm and inviting with cute plants and wall decor. The people there helping us out were super nice and helped guide us to meads that best fit what we were wanting. And the flights come on this cute board with honeycomb shaped glasses that are super rad and fun to tilt around. Additionally, they had some fun little games you can play while you drink your mead which was fun to have! Now their meads are SWEET, if you're into that fantastic! Even if not I still would give it a shot because they have a bunch of fun flavors to try out, I got to try their different pie flavors but my all time favorite was their "Butter-Bee" a butterscotch flavored mead that taste like the butter-beer you would get from universal studios but with actual alcohol! Overall definitely recommend giving this place a go, especially if you haven't tried mead before and/or lean more towards sweeter drinks. It's a great experience to those who live or passing through temecula! read more

Fun meadery with free axe throwing once a month, I believe. I'm not much of a mead person, but the glasses are aesthetically pleasing, the mead looked pretty, and they had cool cards that came with it. Some had sexy mermaids on them. I get heartburn easily is why I don't really like mead, but they all tasted great, I just get a little scared of the burn. The service was great. Everyone is really friendly. I also got a savory crepe that was pretty decent. I would like to come back again when I'm in the area. read more

Loved the decor and ambiance of the place and the design of the bottles and menu but it was very hot since they did not have good ventilation and only had one person working on a weekend and it was very busy but the she was still friendly and did make sure to tell customers she would be with them soon. Did a tasting of the mermaid collection loved the pineapple one but they were all really sweet like dessert wine and a bit pricey for the amount you got in a skinny bottle. Really liked the little cards that went with each tasting so you know what you were tasting and information about it. read more

Quaint little mead place in the industrial area of Temecula. We did a mead tasting. It was $18 for 4 tastings. They specialize in sweet mead so you have to have a palate for sweets. My personal favorite was the Pomegranate Mead. Our service was good as well. Andrea was helpful in describing the different notes of each mead. read more

This was such a fun place to visit. We all picked different flavors and ended up taking some home.

I did a tasting of 4 meads and personally thought the meads were too sweet for my taste, but the flavors were spot on and the presentation, price, and interior were all great. They also have a ton of cute merch that I'd consider purchasing in the future! read more

This place is amazing the vibe and spirits all top notch.. don't forget the chips when you go there...

Definitely must visit if you enjoy your alcohol on the sweeter side. They ferment all their meads at the same place. Parking is easy to find and the location is a bit far from the freeway but it's in a great location away from residences which is good. Can just relax and enjoy your meads in peace. I enjoyed their Peach Habanero, strawberry pie and Peach Pie meads. Their bourbon and whiskey meads were awesome. The team members were very friendly. Very knowledgeable about the meads and very attentive. I enjoyed this place a lot and will definitely visit again. They have lots of board games and tables with fireplace. Something new to try rather than typical wine tasting. read more

I love that I was able to check this place out in between all the wine tasting. If you LOVE sweet drinks this is your place! They have a plethora of flavors to choose from. The space is really nice and the service was friendly. They also offer 10% military. (Thank you for honoring us!) I would say though that although I love my sweet drinks, these meads were overpoweringly sweet. There's another meadery location that I do like a bit more than this place only bc the sweetness is much more subtle with all their flavors. read more

Batch Mead - Flight of meads and one cider. YUM! - Meaderies Near Me - Temecula, California

Long overdue review update! Since our last experience, we've placed a few large orders and had each one delivered seamlessly (except when the switched to UPS, we had an issue with that one) but, it was resolved quickly! I have so many favorite meads here, literally too many to count, I haven't come across too many that I don't really care for. Stopped by for our first visit and I loved that it was empty besides a few other people because I get anxiety when places are too crowded. It was clean, beautifully set up and decorated and had awesome natural lighting. Spoke with Derek who was very patient with us ordering and explaining the different meads to us, Viking's Mjord is one of our new favorites and can't wait for the new releases to drop so we can bring our growler back to get refilled. Thank you for an enjoyable first visit! read more

Talk about a "Hidden gem"!!!! This place is a wonderful little nook, tucked away far off the usual beaten path of Temecula , in a very unassuming industrial park. The vibe is very chill, the staff is quite welcoming - and the mead? It's simply OUT OF THIS WORLD !!! A very lush (pun intended ) menu of mead and hard ciders awaits your perusal-- somewhere around 20 different varieties between the 2 (mead & cider) and they are simply fantastic. Tasting flights are a great way to get to know them, and there's bottles & 4 pack-cans available to go for a good amount of your choices honestly can't wait to go back and try/get more! read more

Never knew about Mead until I tried this place! I'm not much of a wine drinker because I like the more sweeter drinks (like a Stella Rosa), so when I found out about Mead it was such an amazing discovery. I love all the notes you can taste in each drink. I just wished I lived closer so I could come visit more often! I've loved several of their drinks & have even bought bottles home. The meat & cheese box is also a must if you do a flight tasting. read more

Came here on a whim...cute little spot away from the hustle and bustle of the town. We did two taster flights - most were a little too sweet for my liking - but I loved the "watermelon crush" and my husband liked the "from the ashes". We also got to sample the pumpkin flavor which was tasty. read more

They have different options and some other cool promotions. I will be back again soon. read more

Great vibes all around. I discovered this local gem during a service call and had to bring my family back to check it out. Derek is amazing and everyone there makes you feel welcome. They have a mead or cider for every palate and are constantly creating new flavors. There was a pop-up crepe booth as well as axe throwing when we went. The crepes were delicious and the "Axeholes" taught our son how to throw an axe! Batch mead has a passion for their craft and it shines in the quality of their products. We will definitely return and recommend as a local hot spot. read more

I'm not much of a drinker, but when I do drink I tend to go for the sweeter drinks. Never tried mead until I came here but if you like very sweet alcoholic drinks then you should try this place. One thing I really like about the mead here is you can really pick up the flavors in the aroma of the mead. They have a variety of flavors to try and a lot of them are good. They even have a couple of ciders here, and I may like those even more than the mead. There's another mead place nearby and I think this one blows it out of the water. If you had to choose between the two, come here. read more
