Golden Coast Mead was founded in 2010 by friends Frank Golbeck, Praveen Ramineni and Joe Colangelo and is located in Oceanside, CA. Their mission is to light up people's lives, regenerate the earth and create a shareable abundance with stakeholders. Golden Coast Mead is a craft alcoholic beverage company dedicated to making the best mead you've ever tasted, made from organic honey and the best quality ingredients, without preservatives.
Frank Golbeck, the President, was first exposed to the magic of mead as a young kid on his grandfather’s apple orchard. He watched a room full of adults transform into a laughing, gregarious bunch, and he knew there was something special about this potion made from honey. Luckily, he made a career of it, and now shares his knowledge and passion for mead with the world.
Mead is actually the oldest alcoholic drink on the planet, and is just now beginning to make a strong comeback. Golden Coast Mead crafts a distinctive style of mead: San Diego Style Mead. It is brewed with organic honey and a high attention to detail. Because it is naturally effervescent, it is served cold and has a light, refreshing, and balanced flavor profile. There is no pasteurization or added sulfites; this mead is a modern interpretation of ancient practices. The result is a delicious, gluten-free beverage with over 200,000 pollinations in every glass.
