This is the first meadery I've been to (I usually do wineries, but none are in the area). They have both meads and ciders and some N/A options for designated drivers. I had a flight of meads that were very nice ranging for off dry (a bit sweet) to dry (not sweet) and ended up buying a bottle. Was trying for two bottles but the other sold out during my tasting, darn. They have both an inside and outside sitting area. I enjoyed the outdoor seating area during my flight. A very nice experience.

The Beach Bee is adorable inside and out and the meads pretty great too. The inside looks like a down country instagram playground and there’s a charming semi-covered outdoor area great for big groups. We did a mix of meads and cider flights. The dry meads were by far my favorite. Great place to try something different.

I found out about this place from a posting on Instagram, and I was intrigued by their flavored meads and ciders.

As soon as I walked up to the building, I was welcomed and greeted so warmly by the staff. The two ladies that waited on me (who I unfortunately didn't get their names) were so knowledgeable and helpful. I opted to do the flights, which is $15 for four, and everything I tried was wonderful. They also do drinks by the glass for $8, and they sell the products to take home as well. The only "food" they have is some snacks, and they sell souvenirs like T-Shirts and Wine Bags .

The establishment is very clean, and you can sit either inside or outside, depending on the weather. This place has such a fun vibe and is great for small crowds.

Overall, I absolutely loved my first experience here, and I will definitely come in again the next time I am in the area.

Had a super nice time here - very tasty selection of meads and beers, with board games + card games readily available. I really liked the casual feel, good service, and homey vibe that fit the beach atmosphere perfectly. Felt like somewhere that visitors and locals alike felt welcome in - highly recommend while on a trip to Long Branch!

We stayed nearby the Beach Bee Meadery for vacation and stopped in to check it out. Turns out they make meads and ciders and offer flights of each.

The flights we sampled were unique flavor combos for ciders, and were all delicious and well made. Like most ciders these days, they are fermented “dry” so none are too sweet. The flavors like Chardonnay Pear and Guava Orange really hit the mark and were delicious.

There is no food other than bagged snacks, but you can order delivery or takeout to the tasting room or outdoor courtyard, where dogs are also welcome!

It’s a great place to add to your beach visit or really any tome you’re in the long Branch, NJ area.

We love Beach Bee Meadery. It’s the best place around that offers so many gluten free options! They have indoor and outdoor seating and great games to play while you taste! Highly recommend, good vibes, great ciders & meads, good people and dog friendly!

Very cute place with delicious mead and cider! We ordered two flights (you can mix and match mead and cider). They also sell meat and cheese snack trays, but can only sell prepackaged foods. You are allowed to bring your own food, and they have numerous take out menus from nearby restaurants. They have many tables and board games! Good atmosphere and very nice staff.
