About the Maker
created by
Ryan & Melanie Belshee
As an Eagle Scout, Ryan Belshee has always enjoyed creating things by hand. Ryan has a thirst for knowledge and loves a good experiment. On a whim Ryan decided to try his hand at making a batch of Absinthe at home. Unfortunately, private distilling is illegal in Oregon and it can be dangerous. With a little research he decided to give infusion a try. Through some trial and error the Absinthe infusion spice blend was born. Following the successful discovery, Ryan put his BA from Portland State University's Business school to good use and turned his delicious experiment into a company. When he's not busy grinding and blending spices, Ryan keeps his wife Melanie on her toes coming up with the new flavor profiles and a wide range of other crazy ideas. The pair met in high school and celebrated 15 years of marriage this year. Melanie Belshee dreamed of being an artist from a very young age. Her passion for art carried grew into a career after earning her Bachelors of Science in Graphic design from the Art Institute of Portland in 2001. Originally wanting to work as a children's book illustrator, Melanie fell in love with Graphic Design and has been practicing her craft for the last 15 years helping large businesses and small non-profits create and maintain their branding image. Now as a small business owner and manufacturer, Melanie is thrilled to be able to share her work on a product line that is close to her heart. Always a fan of vintage, historical works; creating the look and feel for her very own product line has been a dream come true. Melanie aspires to keep every package design as historically accurate as possible along the way spending hours researching in an effort to keep the style true to the prohibition era period.

difficult instruction,s got moldy
My husband and I love Moscow mules so when i stumbled across this I thought it would be a perfect little extra gift for Christmas that we could do together. The instructions were alright but overall the task is not simple for first timers. We were pretty strict in following directions and sterilizing EVERYTHING we used and touched and worked with. Well it was basically a waste of time because after the recommended time of fermentation is had black mold on the top and obviously was not consumable. Again, not sure if this was user error or not, but even if it was the instructions should have been clearer and easier to follow.

Hello! Is the amount of sugar added customizable? We love ginger beer but my fiancé has a family hx of diabetes so we try not to drink any sugars. I know the fermentation process eats a bit, but we'd still like to adjust. Also, if the refill doesn't include the yeast- how do we rebrew?

Hello Lacey, I will email you privately.

About how long does it take to make this when following the instructions for the first time?
Verified reply from Leighton
Fermentation of the Ginger Beer takes about 5-7 days for optimal flavor and another 36-40 hours for the carbonation process each time.

Does the ginger beer need to be used in a short time frame to be good or can leftovers be put in jars in the fridge or frozen? We're just wondering how lon the finished product stays fresh to use.
Verified reply from Brandon
The ginger beer can be bottled (bottles should be sterilized beforehand) and capped, and then stored for months! Or you can forgo the bottling and drink up within the week or two after making. The brew should not be freezed, however.

Unfortunately the mugs are not customizable.

Hi, are the copper mugs lined to prevent the copper from leaching into drinks?
Verified reply from Valerie
The exterior of each mug is varnished and antiqued while the interior is all natural.
