In this 'September 2004' national issue to our Friends and Family…

• 2002 Red Raspberry Reserve is Released!
• Reminder…International Mead Festival Tickets Now On Sale
• Redstone Meadery is Proudly Distributed in the Following States…

Release #2 in the Redstone Meadery "Reserve Series" is now available. We make this much anticipated announcement to our wait list as well as the general public alike. The aroma explodes with red raspberries as it slightly tickles the nose with alcohol. Then the taste covers one's tongue in a warm blanket of honey and fruit. Some tartness and therefore acidity balances the sweetness for a finish that leaves one wanting more than just a second sip. True mead appreciators and fans can now secure a bottle of this 16% alcohol dessert mead at redstonemeadery.com or purchase directly in our Boulder, Colorado Tasting Room.

Check out www.meadfest.com to order your tickets on-line for the 2004 International Mead Festival - Honeywines of the World. Plan to attend the world's largest commercial mead competition and festival. This third annual historic event will be held in Boulder, Colorado and is NOT TO BE MISSED.

A 10th annual 40 brewery event for charity. Redstone, as we are proud to be available in Southern California, will be there serving and adding to the fun. www.sdbeerfest.com

Ok all, it's that time again. It should be a national holiday so every adult can attend, but no, only the lucky few (last year logged over 20,000 attendees!) who motivate will be able to enjoy. Ticket information is at http://www.beertown.org/events/gabf/index.htm. Look for Redstone Meadery as we'll be on the floor pouring with the over 300 breweries who serve and compete.
