With names like "Kill All the Golfers" and "Zombies Take Manhattan," it's easy to see why B. Nektar has crafted a reputation for modern-day magic when it comes to its meads. And it's not just metro Detroiters who are putting the brewery on the map; it was the first meadery to join the ranks on the top 100 best breweries in the world by Ratebeer.com, and has remained there since 2013.
