Celebrate Sigrblót & the Mead bearing its name with us & our viking brethren! Sigrblót is an ancient holiday celebrated on the fourth full moon after the winter solstice to welcome the pending arrival of summer & start of the sailing season. To honor that tradition, Oppegaard Meadery & Sea Wolf Voyages have partnered to craft a special lingonberry mead. Come try the mead as you listen to sea stories & Viking lore, pair it with kitchen specials, & shop from Viking artisans!
Sound the horns... we’re hosting our next Community Feast Night! Many of the Viking Feasts on our menu are designed for much larger groups, but we realize you don't all roll in packs of 30! This is your chance to try our heralded Whole King Salmon with whatever size group suits you. Come be treated like a Jarl. Meet some new people at our long communal tables. And eat, drink, and be merry!
All ages welcome.
