The name Pips is not only a nod to the seeds in fruits, but also to counting devices like the symbols on playing cards or the dots on a die. Though, most importantly, it is a nod to our son, Parker, who was born with special needs. Not knowing what his future holds, Pips will forever be a home to him as a family owned business.
We firmly believe in continuous improvement at Pips. We simply make what we enjoy drinking, and are beyond humbled when we can put a smile on even one other face as a result. That said, we actively seek out learning opportunities and always plan on listening to feedback from our customers. Every voice matters, for it is because of you that we are able to do what we love to do.
We thank you for your support and for joining us on this journey.

187ml bottle pours out golden honey color. Nose is great sweet honey clean vanilla barrel touch. Taste is more of the nice sweet honey rich complex barrel vanilla. This is one of the first American meads I have had that compares to a polish traditional.

Thanks Justin for sharing the! Teku showing deep amber. The nose shows intense notes of alcoholic bourbon. The palate is full bodied. Extremely maple forward and very sweet with subtle bourbon background. Moderately intense notes of fried apple.

Aromat kwitowo owocowy, gryczany i wcae nie taki intensywny. W ustach wyjatkowo jak na taki miodek malo slodki, mocno kwaskowaty, w cholere owocowy (strzelalbym blednie ze wisniowo malinowo jagodowy). Bardzo ciekawy miodek, charakterystyczny i b smaczny

Bottle shared at Aaron's birthday at Lucky Bamboo. Thanks John! Pours a clear gold. Strong honey aromas with mango and vanilla cream as it warms. Sweet, but ABV hidden well. Fresh squeezed mango and cream on the palate as well with stone fruit notes and honey. Very creative mead.
