Industry & Trade
Every tavern in Icewind Dale is accustomed to receiving regular mead deliveries, and the town can’t produce or deliver its mead fast enough.
As honey is the key ingredient in mead, the town literally buzzes with the droning of bees.
Infrastructure
The town’s squat dwellings, adorned with carvings of dinosaurs and serpents, are overshadowed by the two-story structure of the mead hall, its eaves carved and painted to resemble wyverns.
History
Founded by immigrants from Chult and the Vilhon Reach.
Tourism

Geography
Good Mead is nestled between Redwaters and a nearby evergreen forest.
A path connects Good Mead to the Eastway, crosses the snow-covered road, and continues to Caer-Dineval. Another snowy path leads to Dougan's Hole.
