Official Membership Terms and Details

We’re now extending invitations to potential future members of our exclusive group,  “The Lab.” Our currently enrolled Seniors retain the first rights of renewal starting on July 1 and concluding on July 14th at 5PM EDT.

On July 15th , we will begin to offer any vacated spots to our wait list in numerical order until we reach capacity.

Each year, we aim to provide a membership experience that evolves with the needs of our members. Through feedback channels, we experiment with new offerings to enhance the appeal to our fans.

 

Duration: Membership in the “The Lab” begins on August 1, 2026. Membership will last one calendar year from start date. Brewlihan reserves the right to extend the membership terms, and if necessary, to provide members with any membership inclusive items outlined below on this page

Levels: For the first time ever, we will offer 3 different levels to our membership that are
designed to provide you with options based upon your personal preference.

 

Membership Levels – Overview

Master’s Degree: Our highest level of membership. Includes 5 Member-Only Barrel Aged Mead bottles (bi-monthly releases), storage for the year for all bottles purchased (cans are not eligible for storage), member merch, and access to member only events. This level of membership is best for the ultimate mead fan who wants the best of the best!

For full Master’s Degree details, see below.
(Limited to 125 members) – $300

Changing Majors: This level of membership is designed for someone who doesn’t want to be locked in to Member bottles and wants more flexibility in their purchasing. With our “Changing Majors” level, you’ll get zero guaranteed / included bottles, but, you’ll have access to buy member bottles and enter all randoms (inventory permitting). This level will also get your access to purchase new releases prior to the general public. “Changing Majors” will also
include member merch and the option of purchasing bottle storage for the year.

This membership level is best for our out-of-town fans that plan on cutting back on bottles, but still want to grab limited stuff here and there. Changing Majors details are located below.
(Limited to 75 members) $75 base. $100 with storage.

Student Union: Locals! You’re a local who loves to hang at Brewlihan, and you’ve been asking about our version of a Mug Club – here it is. Come hang out at the Student Union, where you’ll enjoy a 10% member discount on all on-site tasting room purchases. This level is best for people who gravitate towards our Serum line!

Full information on our Student Union level is below.

Our goal from 2022 has been to create one of the top tier memberships in the nation. We STILL believe that your satisfaction as members is our first priority. We listened, we learned. We will continue to improve thanks to the understanding that you are the reason why this club exists. To ensure this, we aim to be very transparent about what you can expect from us. Please see below for a comprehensive list of deliverables, as well as what we expect from
our valued members.

 

Brewlihan Assurances:
1. We promise to continue to listen and build our group around the feedback that you provide. “Low ego, high confidence.” Perfection is our aspiration, but it isn’t realistic. When we face challenges, we will confront with respectful, open dialogue that aims to keep you informed.

2. All aforementioned items (see “Membership Includes” section) will be provided to members prior to the close of the initial year of the membership.

3. Member exclusive bottles will never be sold to the public. We reserve the right to pour them at festivals, special events, or a member only tap line in the tasting room.

4. Purchases reserved for pick-up via member or assigned proxy at the tasting room, located 3472 NE 5th Ave – Unit 1 – Oakland Park, FL 33334 must be picked up within 21 days. Please understand, we have a very small footprint and are unable to provide long-term storage. Bottles not claimed within the window will be subject to a late pickup charge of $10 per bottle. Temperature Controlled Storage options are available for bottles at a cost of $25 per year (Changing Majors only).

5. Communication will be clear and consistent via email and the Facebook group. All announcements of events, membership bottles, public releases, etc will be made using both modalities.

6. We reserve the right to revoke a membership or deny renewal of future membership at any time at our sole discretion.

 

Member Assurances:
1. One person per membership (not household). Memberships may be split, with one member acting as the primary member. In this case, the primary member only will be the recipient of the “Membership Includes” section.
2. Members and proxies must be 21 years of age at the time of entering this agreement and have a valid government-issued picture ID reflecting this.
3. Members should maintain a current and active email account. Members will make effort to ensure that email is not disposed or directed into a spam folder. It is your responsibility to keep yourself informed.
4. Members that opt to join the private Facebook are expected to interact in a manner that is conducive to civility.
