40 years of beekeeping led us to making mead - which led to making wine ... then we added ciders ... and now we've got beer and pizza. Where are we headed next? Nobody knows.

At St. Ambrose Cellars, we make award-winning meads, wines, ciders, and beers. Our tasting room features 18 draft taps and a full menu of still meads, red wines, and white wines. Our food truck and brick oven pizza serve up the eats on weekends, and talented musicians take the stage every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

You'll find a nine hole disc golf course, bocce ball court, yard games, and a bee garden outside.

If that isn't enough - you'll also find our meads in stores across the nation and available for shipping to 37 (and counting!) states via our online storefront.

Mead is the world's oldest alcoholic beverage, and is made with fermented honey, water, and yeast. Our draft meads take this ancient art and add carbonation and bold new flavors for a gluten-free, 7% ABV drink with a satisfying sweetness and exciting taste.

In our tasting room we have 18 taps featuring a selection of draft meads, ciders, and beers. We distribute 8 varieties of our draft mead to stores around the country, and direct to you with our online store.

Join us on Saturday, February 23rd for our luau party! Mentally escape the long Northern Michigan winter with a trip to an island paradise at St. Ambrose Cellars - featuring Chris Michels and his ukulele, new pineapple mead, tropical food, and more! Wear your best Hawaiian shirt and get ready to party!

Join us on Sunday, February 17th from 12 PM to 4 PM for a special beer and chocolate pairing event with Grocer's Daughter Chocolate! For $15 you will be able to sample five beers and five chocolates. No advance tickets, just show up and enjoy - the event will run from 12 PM to 4 PM, or whenever the chocolate runs out. Grocer's Daughter will have chocolate on hand for you to purchase as well. 

From Benzie County and the Lake Michigan Shore, we take the best grapes we can find and turn them into award winning wines. Our current lineup features two winners of gold medals at the Michigan Wine Competition and plenty of other high achievers.

Our wine is available in stores, but if you can't find it near you, you can order direct from the website and have it shipped to your door in 39 states.

Our newest adventure is Brose Brewing - the beer arm of our operation. Try the latest concotions from our brewmasters right here in the tap room or in select local establishments - no bottles for sale in stores ... yet.

Nestled in the heart of Benzie County and just minutes from landmarks like the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore, we're the perfect spot to get away from the hustle of the Grand Traverse wine trails and enjoy a delicious and scenic detour.

We offer five tastes of any product for just $5, and flight boards for $10 - unless they happen to be on special for $8. We also have charcuterie available any time we are open, and a food truck that operates Thursdays-Saturdays year round from early afternoon to close.
