Brewery Facts

• Charm City Meadworks was born from a love of beekeeping, water, and community so it’s appropriate that they make a product using only honey, yeast, and water
• Once a homebrewing passion project for co-founder James Boicourt, Charm City Meadworks has grown into one of Maryland’s largest wineries
• All Charm City Meadworks products, including the lower-ABV sparkling “draft” mead and the higher-ABV traditional “still” mead, are naturally gluten-free
• Unlike more traditional meaderies, Charm City makes a product that is exceptionally dry and brewed for everyday drinkability.
• Charm City Meadworks products are low in calories relative to competitive mead (356 cal./8 oz.), red wine (125 cal./5 oz.), white wine (120 cal./5 oz.) and cider (210 cal./12 oz.)
