LINDENHURST, NY —After six years of brewing "community, conversation and camaraderie" with the Lindenhurst community, W A Meadwerks on N Wellwood Avenue is closing its doors—but not for good.

Mead lovers can relax, because founding partner and mead maker Roger Wanner told Patch that the goal is to find a new space to call home.

"It's hopefully not the end, it's just a pause. We're looking for a new space to keep the dream alive," Wanner said on Friday. "We'd like to stay in the village, because the village has been awesome to us."

In a statement, Wanner wrote that a "challenging year" with low sales pushed them to the "breaking point," and their landlord chose to terminate their lease.

But the duo remains positive, and told Patch that "growing down" is their plan to reopen and transition smoothly into a new space.

"We'd love to lock in a lease soon, but we'll see how good the real estate market is to us," Wanner said.

He explained that even though they'd love to move "aggressively" with a reopening, it'll be at least a few months before a new location could be up and running.

In the meantime, service in the tasting room is open until October 27 and the bottle shop will be open for business through Halloween. On Friday, Meadwerks is offering 20 percent off on purchases of six or more bottles.

For now, Wanner plans to stay connected to their community and customers and hopes things "get brighter" in the new year.

"We ask customers to support us during the move keep their eyes and ears on our social media," Wanner said." We're staying hopeful, there's so much we haven't done yet."

The Village of Lindenhurst is upgrading its parking meters on Wellwood Avenue to touch-screen parking meter kiosks that accept both coins and credit cards. In addition, we are introducing “Pay-by-App” and “Pay-by-Text” options that will allow customers to pay without using the kiosk!

As part of this new system, most parking spaces on Wellwood will be numbered and to begin any parking transaction, customers must enter their space number. Customers parking in a numbered space must use a new parking kiosk or their smartphones (pay-by-app or pay-by-text) to pay for parking. Customers parking in non-numbered spaces with an old-style parking meter should continue to use the old meter as they do today.

Also, free 15-minute “in-and-out” will remain on both North and South Wellwood!

All meters are in effect Monday through Saturday from 9 AM TO 9 PM
