It was started as a beekeeping hobby in 1995. Chinook Arch Meadery is the first honey winery in Alberta and sells a selection of fine meads ranging from traditional mead styles complimented with a range of Melomels featuring local fruit and Metheglins. Our newest line of products are fortified meads produced in small batches with even more new flavours.
Chinook Arch Meadery now has a busy Tasting Bar on site. Our customer base has grown tremendously so to keep more of them supplied we also have sales through select liquor stores in Alberta.

History
Chinook Arch Meadery has been operated as an ag-tourism destination, selling 90% of our mead from our Apiary and Meadery located just south of Okotoks. We are fortunate that we have a good location, easily accessible from Calgary, with an awesome mountain view. Our sales and production have increased 15 to 20% every year since we opened in 2008. Participating in wine and mead competitions has garnered medals and awards that we’re very proud of, particularly those won on the International Mead stage.
