GOT QUESTIONS?
WE HAVE SOME ANSWERS.
The ancients claimed mead could bestow great wit and strength upon us mortals (it’s 12% alcohol, so maybe). Because it’s fermented with honey, not grain or fruit, our Genesis Mead is more than divine — it’s good. Good for you. Good for cocktails. Good for bees.
Q. I'd like to pickup my club releases at the meadery...How can I make that happen?
A. Send an email to vip@thebullandbee.com and let us know that you’d like to pick-up. We can flip the switch on the back-end and make it happen!
Q. Do only labyrinth VIP club members have access to premium release and limited releases?
A. Labyrinth VIP club members have guaranteed access to all our premium releases and limited release stills to purchase but these meads are not guaranteed to be included in quarterly club releases. All club members can expect to have some limited release meads included in club releases. We plan on making a small amount of the premium releases and limited release still meads available to all club members. We’ll announce the sale to club members and have a small allocation available to purchase on a first come first serve basis with bottle limits in place dependent upon the release.
Q. What will be included in the quarterly club releases?
A. Quarterly club releases will include a selection of meads made by the meadmaker. Releases will include a mix of of year-round, seasonal and limited release meads. We will make sure to mix things up throughout the year to provide an awesome variety of meads that span the category with different styles. You may receive the same mead more than once on occasion but only styles that we are super excited about or that we feel you’ll definitely want more than one of!
Q. TAKE MY MONEY! How do I pay?
A. The Labyrinth Mead Club is free to join. You’re only billed at the time of each quarterly shipment. Don’t worry…we’ll email a few weeks in advance and let you know that your delicious package of modern mead will soon be shipping. We’ll also email the day before and let you know the charge will be coming to the card we have on file for you so you don’t think that some stranger is living it up when you see the charge for our meads on your statement.
Q. How many bottles will I receive per quarter?
A. You’ll receive the number of bottles spelled out for each membership level in the overview above. For example, if you sign up for the Argonauts VIP membership you’ll receive two (2) meads of our still meads as well as one (1) of our speciality still meads.
Q. How much will shipping be?
A. Our club management platform, Vinoshippper, has managed the lowest shipping rates possible. Shipping of course will depend upon where you’re located but you should expect roughly $16-$30 based on distance from where we are located. One note is that shipping charges tend to peak at the six bottle level…in other words it’s usually only about $5.00 or so more to ship twelve bottles than it is to just ship six. If you need more specific shipping information prior to signing up please email us at VIP@thebullandbee.com for a shipping estimate based on your specific address.
