2026 Limited Release Collector’s Edition
What happens when you combine Science Fiction, Fantasy, Comics, Gaming, Literature, Art, Music, and Film with the passion of 75,000 Dragon Con fans? You get an unforgettable celebration of creativity, community, and fandom — now distilled into a one-of-a-kind collector’s spirit.
Crafted exclusively for Dragon Con 2026 by Atlanta Distillery, this limited-release vodka is handcrafted in small batches using all-natural ingredients and a unique apple-based distillation process. Unlike traditional grain vodkas, our vodka is distilled from fresh apples and cane sugar, creating an exceptionally crisp, clean, and ultra-smooth finish that stands apart from the ordinary.
Each bottle captures the spirit of Dragon Con itself: bold, original, creative, and proudly crafted in Atlanta.
Every batch begins with fresh, hand-selected apples that are carefully fermented and distilled into our signature vodka. With the essence of approximately 20–30 apples in every bottle, this naturally gluten-free vodka delivers a remarkably smooth and refined profile with subtle natural sweetness and a clean finish.
Perfect for sipping neat, sharing with fellow fans, or elevating your favorite cocktails, Dragon Con Vodka is both a premium craft spirit and a collectible keepsake celebrating Dragon Con’s 40th anniversary.
Raise a glass to fandom, creativity, and community — and enjoy responsibly.

Celebrate 40 years of fandom, creativity, and community with this exclusive Dragon Con 2026 beverage collection featuring three limited-edition releases crafted for fans, collectors, and connoisseurs alike.
Founded in 2014, Old Fourth Distillery helped reintroduce legal distilling to Atlanta as the city’s first distillery since Prohibition. Built on a foundation of craftsmanship, innovation, and Southern hospitality, the brand quickly became known for creating approachable, high-quality spirits that reflected the energy and culture of Atlanta itself.
In 2023, O4D was acquired by Shortbarrel, marking the beginning of a new chapter for one of Atlanta’s most recognizable spirits brands. Over the last three years, the brand has undergone a full evolution — expanding production capabilities, refining its visual identity, and repositioning itself for growth while staying deeply connected to its Atlanta roots. The goal was never to erase O4D’s legacy, but to build on it.
Monks Meadery is a modern mead brand known for its dry, lightly carbonated styles that aren’t overly sweet, proudly serving as the official mead of Dragon Con and the Georgia Renaissance Festival. Blending creativity with a touch of fantasy, their lineup features playful flavors like Dragon’s Nectar, Red Wedding & Faerie Dew, bringing a bit of magic and narrative to every pour.
The Meadery is only minutes from downtown and has a complimentary shuttle running Wednesday–Sunday, 1–7pm nonstop (8–12 min ride) to and from the Con. It’s the best way to support local, save money on mead, and yes… we know you nerds love a quest just as much as we do. There might even be loot drops if you take the ride!
What began in a Marietta garage as a passion project by founders Mark and Liz Deno has grown into Georgia’s top-selling craft cider brand, rooted in a love for fermented apples and a mission to bring people together through exceptional, apple-based beverages. Eight years later, the company has expanded beyond cider into a unique line of handcrafted apple spirits, all made on-site at their family-owned cidery and distillery. Committed to quality and creativity, every product is small-batch, all-natural, gluten-free, and bottled by hand.
