Bier Distillery & Brewery
Grain & fruit to glass Micro-distillery in Michigan. Everything made from scratch, handmade, and bottled in-house. Most spirit choices in West Michigan!
From a long line of bakers and brewers, we were looking for a way to put our stamp on a family tradition. Distilled spirits was the answer.
Then, the real work began. Recipes were developed to get the target taste profile from each spirit. Bottles were ordered, labels designed, knuckles were scraped. The dream became reality. We now produce an expanding line of spirits, beer, and wine.
