AboutFallentimber Meadery
Fallentimber Meadery sits on the Ryan family farm near Water Valley, in the forested foothills northwest of Calgary. Three generations of Ryans have raised bees there, continuing a family beekeeping practice that dates to 1969. The meadery began with traditional styles in 2009 and opened to visitors the following year.
The family uses honey from its own bees, which forage on Alberta wildflowers and clovers. Its range includes still meads, fruit meads and sparkling cocktails.
Fallentimber 2020 Traditional Mead
Canadian Mead
$29.99
Wildflower honey gives a fragrant, gently floral aroma with soft wax and meadow notes. The palate is medium-sweet but clean, carrying rounded honey flavour without becoming dense. A light freshness through the middle keeps the texture poised, while the simple, direct character lets the regional honey remain central. The finish is smooth, balanced and quietly persistent. Serve lightly chilled with roasted poultry, aged cheddar, apple tart or a restrained cheese course.
Fallentimber Saskatoon Mead 750 mL
Canadian Dessert
$29.99
Bright and clean, this fruit-led mead balances floral honey with ripe Saskatoon berry, a hint of crab apple and subtle oak. The berry fruit brings freshness and gentle tartness, keeping the rounded honeyed palate poised through a smooth, well-balanced finish. Serve lightly chilled with roast pork, glazed poultry, aged cheddar or a berry tart; it is equally comfortable as an unhurried after-dinner glass.
