Definitely get the feeling that locals are welcome but if you're not a regular you just not on the same level. I will definitely look for their products in the stores but I don't think I will come back to the actual brick and mortar location. Ryan likes to act exclusive so he would love this place.

First off - before Honnibrook, I would never have sought out a meadery. My conception of mead is…read morethat it's overly sweet and overly boozy. Honnibrook is different - their mead is light, refreshing and they had so many fun different flavors to try! Everyone at the meadery was so nice and let us try the base mead as we walked in, to set a baseline for a mead without any of the flavoring. It was again light, crisp and not syrupy-tasting. My husband and I ended up getting a flight of 4 - the slushie mojito, earl gray lavender, island hopper and huckleberry. The earl gray lavender was delicious - we ended up getting a bottle to bring home! My only critical feedback would be the flight options - they had several flight options (1 taster for $4, then flights for 4 or 8). There was no economical benefit to getting a 4 or 8-taster flight, versus just individual tasters, so don't think the flight pricing makes sense since it's just a per unit price regardless of how many tasters you get. Definitely will be recommending this place to friends! flight prices

I visited to have some mead and was quite happy that the menu has a quick note on the sweetness of the drink which helped me to choose my flight. I thought the PB&J was quite fun, because you can really smell the peanut butter! I think my favorite was French Blue or BBA Solstice. I invited some friends from work and they also enjoyed their drinks, unanimously voting the BBA Solstice as their favorite drink. There isn't food available in the meadery, BUT that means that you can bring in your own food to enjoy with your mead including a friendly food truck and nearby restaurants. There is a Pokemon Go Pokestop accessible from the meadery.

There were about 12 people inside watching Phantom when we got there and we received waves and compliments from several. I do believe one of the co-owners was the one who helped us at the bar and we were offered free samples. I ended up getting their Halloween special which was their spiced mead made blue with spirulina called the Draugr and my spouse got their oak barrel aged mead. We watched part of Phantom and part of Nosferatu before we left around 9pm because it was getting late. We had a great time and the atmosphere was really chill. We hope to be back soon. It was seriously some of the best mead I've ever had and I'm mead spoiled.

On this trip the server came to us and explained the ins and outs of the meadery which was helpful especially being first visit there. Not a lot for food so don't expect a dinner of any sort just small nosh things. Price was really good and we did enjoy trying the different flavors and figuring out our favorites. The only drawback I have to say about this place is truly not enough room to sit especially if they get busy. There was a private party on what I believe to be their back patio, which is good to know if anyone was looking for a very small venue. All in all cute place, good mead a great little place for a quick meet up but definitely will make you cozy up to your neighbor.

Definitely an experience worth testing out when you're here.

This one star isn't so much of an "it was bad" rating as opposed to "it lacked an experience"…read morerating. Not that there wasn't some frustration involved. Steven and I have practically become beer snobs overnight. With this in mind we are always looking for another brewery to try. Along the way we also got a taste for mead as well. Colorado is mostly known for their breweries but there are a handful of meaderies in the state as well. Almost all of them seem to be ran out of some body's home. Calling to see if a tasting can be arranged can be difficult. Some of the ones we tried to go to before act like they don't even want you to come over and try what they have to offer. One meadery owner acted like she was selling illegal drugs and said that she didn't want us to come over without an appointment and have the neighbor's become aroused because they see a strange car in the driveway. Hmmm. Colorado's breweries and meaderies are listed in a guide, a map if you will that indicates the various breweries in the state. The map has jumped the gun on several occasions and we went to breweries that haven't even opened yet. The brewery guide and map has been however accurate with hours of business with these places listed. Which brings me to the Black Forest Meadery. This was the only meadery that seemed to have established hours without the comment 'call for information' . This gave us the idea that this place was more established and ready to receive guests. The GPS led us through different parts of Black Forest, CO and eventually to a residence where the meadery is. There was a sign that indicated we were indeed at the meadery with an additional sign that said there was a wine tasting today. Under the sign that had the said name was a phone number to call to have a gate open to get to the residence. We called without no answer which eventually led to an answering machine saying that we reached Black Forest Meadery. Yes, we KNOW that already from the sign. There was no information stating their hours, just in case the map got it wrong again. Totally deflated we went back to the Interstate with no mead. So was the map wrong? Who knows. This leads me to my final rant of going to homes that run a business inside them. The residents can totally make up their own rules. That is fine but if customers get the idea that you will be around and you are not... well the customer feels kind of screwed. It may all be a question of seriousness too. Maybe selling puppies and making mead is more of a hobby and you aren't really open for business till you need some extra money on the side? Who knows what peoples motivations are. After some further thought it might had been a good idea that no one was there to let us through the gate. It might have been a very pressuring experience where a couple is reeeeeally pushing you into buying some mead or that puppy or whatever. Then you feel bad if you don't buy anything and they get frustrated at you because 'lil Susie had to wait fifteen minutes after soccer practice because they were dealing with the likes of you. It takes pressuring 'used car dealership' type sales to a whole new level because you are in some body's domain and not in your own or out in a neutral area. Who knows, maybe none of these stereotypes would come true at Black Forest Meadery there was no way to tell. That gate did not open.
