Randomly found this place while in Toledo and I was thrilled. It's in an industrial complex so I thought at first my GPS was messing up. They have tables inside and out and they have board games to make the a fun afternoon. We were limited on time and just sat at the bar for a tasting. The girl at the bar was super helpful, had a great personality and you could tell she was passionate about the product. If you're not a drinker they have some flavored soda waters in a can. I opted for the tasting flight and there was definitely a clear favorite. They have both carbonated and non-carbonated options, all that I tried were carbonated. The flavors are fun and fruity and I have to say they have a really nice variety for being a small place. The clear winner for me was the Slappi da basil, a delicious blend of blueberries and basil. It's definitely up there with my all time favorite mead. Mass A Peal was good as was the Blood orange which was made with vanilla bean for a sweet creamcicle like treat. I will definitely be back. read more

I've only had tastes of mead a couple of times and while they were good, it's RPGs that really romanticized the notion. When we went on a weekend trip to Toledo, I had to try it. It did NOT disappoint. It was AMAZING! The staff was so knowledgeable, helped guide my selections based on wine and beer preferences, and to make it even better they even had a flight. It's also on the 419 Ale Trail, which if you are visiting Toledo was a lot of fun to participate in (Google it and check it out - it's a a self paced brewery tour that gives prizes when you hit a certain number). Basically now I'm obsessed with Meade and am so sad that I do not have a place local to me to enjoy it and make believe I'm a rogue ninja in an old tavern awaiting my bounty. read more

WOW! Seriously, WOW! If you've read any of my yelp reviews, you know that I joke around quite a bit...but this time, I'm dead serious. Four Fires Meadery is one of the most exciting new establishments of the year! They make and sell a unique product: mead. MEAD! If by edict, you, like Ahmad ibn Fadlan are forbidden from drinking the "fermentation of grape or wheat," just remember, as Herger the Joyous laughed "Honey... Mead is made from honey!" So grab the drinking horn and take a slug! Four Fires Meadery produces some fantastic products. Kakamora and Slappin' the Basil are outstanding. I can't imagine any beer or wine drinker that wouldn't LOVE either one of these meads. I had a flight of four meads, plus one extra, and I'm really serious now, they were all great. FFM (I know...that sounds like a menage a trois) has been producing mead for at least 6 months, but the taproom in Maumee opened this week. You really should stop in. No food, but there will be food trucks in the near future. Currently you can bring in your own food if desire...I'd suggest a large gyro salad, Greek style, from Charlie's...just around the corner. Although it's probably impossible to get tired of all new the microbreweries in T-Town, if you are, switch over to mead for while. You'll be glad you did. Although they didn't invent mead, it was the Vikings who were the hardest bastards ever to consume this drink...until now...until mead came to Toledo. TOLEDOANS! JOIN ME!! Come to Four Fires Meadery, raise your drinking horn, and WE shall lay claim to that title! Enthusiastic FIVE STARS!! read more

Ok - when I walked in, I instantly regretted my decision to come here. Super small and dark but kinda trendy. My partner said, "since we're here, let's give it a shot". Best decision I ever made. Our bartender, aka mead connoisseur, explained everything and let us baby step our way in. It was AWESOME to try everything and get a lesson with each. The Geez O Peach is fantastic. I'm a dry wine drinker, a blue moon drinker and a vodka drinker. Also, after I got in a better mood, I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Super cute and lovely people! Guests included. read more

Good selection of drinks! Wait staff is very nice, owners dog Kevin was roaming so that was the best part. Who doesn't want to drink and be around dogs !? read more

Servers were too busy talking to their "regular" customers to explain their menu choices to potential new members.

Incredible mead, with a wide variety of flavors. Attentive and friendly staff. Low-light and clean atmosphere. Check out it

This place is a fantastic addition to the Toledo area. Friendly staff and tasty meads abound. You won't regret popping in for a flight.
