Tonight at this week’s wine pairing and pouring from 5-8 p.m. we will be featuring St. Ambrose Cellars. Rooted in over 30 years of beekeeping and honey harvesting traditions, Kirk and Sharon Jones have been raising hives, extracting honey, and producing honey-based products since the late 1970’s in Beulah, Michigan and the Florida panhandle. In the early 2010’s, after years of home-based experimentation with the art of meadmaking, they embarked on a new journey: the birth of St. Ambrose Cellars, a full-fledged meadery. Soon a new line was developed that has become a signature of the meadery – the St. Ambrose Cellars Draft Style Meads. Carbonated like a beer or hard cider, these microbrews of the mead world feature bold flavors like lemon, raspberry, apples, and sour blackberry. All the honey for the meads is harvested by the hard-working bees tended by the beekeepers at Sleeping Bear Farms. The majority of their meads use Star Thistle Honey harvested here in Northern Michigan, while others use the magical Tupelo Honey harvested by the Florida branch. Tonight’s features include their Star Thistle, their tropical Secret Beach White, and their strawberry rhubarb Shotgun Wedding. To accommodate our customers who are observing Lent, our pairings will not contain meat. Join us for this unique taste experience.
