Etowah Meadery & Brewery was officially formed in July 2016. When Blair Housley decided to open a meadery, he began thinking about the ingredients in his meads — honey and fruits. Blair studied the history of the Etowah and how much the river provided to the Cherokee and later settlers, and he decided to name the meadery after it. We are also a startup brewery, come on by and try some award winning mead and beers! Read More

Proud to Support Independent Craft Brewers
For years, small and independent U.S. craft breweries have been turning the beer world upside down. Their ability to take risks, innovate flavors and build better communities has made the U.S. the craft beer capital of the world.
To proudly display that independent spirit, the Brewers Association created a symbol to unify U.S. craft breweries and those who want to support them. This certified mark gives beer lovers an easy way to identify independent craft beer.
