Merikan Stronghold Meadery

Stumbling Bear Mead
Made with wildflower honey | Fermented with ale yeast | Gluten Free | 9% ABV

Brewed for those who love the taste of a cold ale but want something bolder, cleaner, and free of the bloat. Stumbling Bear is crafted with New York wildflower honey, fermented on ale yeast — the result is a crisp, malty ale character that comes not from grain, but from honey transformed in fermentation. It drinks like a beer, finishes like a mead, and leaves the belly as light as your spirit.

At 9% ABV, it packs more strength than your average pint, but without the empty fillers or carb-loaded haze of big beer. No barley. No wheat. No excuses. Just honey, yeast, and craft — the way it should be.

Big beer wants you to believe watered-down grain juice is worth your money. We’d rather give you honey, strength, and 9% ABV in every bottle. Stumbling Bear Mead — real craft.
