We had a private event booked months ago and the staff kept in touch with our contact person constantly. Our party was very recent and the staff was the most fun! We had a blast! Ivy League Brew let us decorate so early in advance and set up the way we wanted to. And Momo’s Cajun Eatz- the food was incredible!! If you need a place for a private event or just go hang out- this. Is. It!!! Thank you to everyone! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a great time hanging out and celebrating with some mead on a Friday night. There was a pretty decent crowd and everyone seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere and the many different mead concoctions. I understand they'll be offering a few new beers soon too. Head down to Alabaster and give Ivy League a try!
I had a flight of 4 meads and everything was great. Plus they have different classes that come in each day.
I love the atmosphere and the people here.
Terry served my drinks. Tasty drinks and great service.
Very expensive went on a Friday night they had bands took forever to get a drink. The band was so loud you couldn’t even communicate with the bartender you had to write down what you want on a piece of paper.
We had our daughter’s wedding reception here and it was great! It’s a brewery that specializes in Mead ( fermented honey to make alcohol) but they work with your party to provide any other drinks and catering you may need. But I have to say, the mead is delicious! The venue can seat around 100 counting the very cute outside seating area that has a fire pit and standing kerosene lamps. The inside floors are hardwood and the ceiling is dotted with decorative rustic chandeliers. They have a pool room and a cute Photo Booth which turned out to be a hit. They have a small stage for either DJ or band and enough room for dancing. This place has everything!
Love, love, love this place. It's like sitting around your house, chatting with all the family and friends that just drop in to share a Mead. That's what we did in "the old days", altho I had no idea I drinking mead. Lol!
We loved the location and the facilities and the service but did not like the mead. Unfortunately, we won't be going back since they don't serve any other type of drinks. We would definitely go back if they served just a few normal domestic and IPA beer.
I had never had mead before until I came here, and it is really good! They have a great specialty crafted selection of different flavors to try, so there is something for everyone. I love the atmosphere, and the building is beautiful. It's definitely family and pet friendly, and the staff is personable. My family goes here often now, and what I've come to love about Ivy League is that they are more than just a place to get a good drink, they are almost like a community center in a way. They host various classes all week long where you can learn a variety of things like ASL, how to make sushi, painting, or cheese making, and they have trivia and karaoke regularly for fun. You can even play pool, some board or arcade games, and they have a beautiful outdoor space. Ivy League is definitely a fantastic place to go if you're looking for an atmosphere with good vibes.

Great staff good drinks !
Phenomenal experience. Ive never tasted Mead. Not sure I can go back to boring wine! The staff was Exceptional ! Will definitely be returning..
So this is a hidden gem! A Meadery in the Birmingham area ❤️ lots of options and you can buy them by the bottle if you like! I am a fan of the Just Peachy and Fine Apple and Immortal. Such wonderful choices!And they have DnD night! Sign me up! I’m looking forward to maybe one day DMing for them.
Absolutely a local must! The mead was outstanding. We were introduced to the owners and the back story of how this establishment came about is definitely one you should hear over a glass. The place has so much going on lots to do and great entertainment. Highly recommend!!!!Side note the Cajun food truck has the most amazing Boudin Balls ever that complements a tall glass of the morning dew mead.
Cool new place for Alabaster. Hope they do well and will definitely be back. Prefer craft beer but always great to have options close to home. Looking forward to see what else is in store for this up and coming area. Go check them out and support them!
