Speciation Cellars

We love speciation!! So much so, that my now husband and I went on our first date there. So when it was time to find a wedding venue, we reached out to see if it was possible to host it at Speciation. Thankfully Mitch and the crew said yes, and we had literally the best party ever. When I say working with the specation team for our wedding was a breeze, I mean it. Any questions I had was answered quickly and with detail. The day of the wedding Jane and Carly took such good care of us and all of our guests. They handled our crew with grace and everyone had a great time. We were able to get into the venue early to do all the set up so that we could have a few hours of peace before the big day started. It was a beautiful space to have our wedding and we are so thankful we did. We also choose to have the team make us a wedding beer. We got to chat with Mitch for the ideas we had and he brought them to life. We went with a hot toddy inspired beer. They even let us submit our own label for the beer. It was a great gift for our guests, to have on tap during the wedding, and have some extras to drink in our first year married. If you're looking for an awesome place to host an event, I highly suggest reaching out and working with the speciation crew!

If you love absolute creamers, then this place is absolutely for you! The Brewmaster, Sweet Lu, is a standalone mixologist in Grand Rapids, crafting up some of the tastiest dirty bevies around these parts. Downright righteous flavors and spectacularly sips to satiate your desire for sours.

1st time stop and was very surprised at the Great tasting sours they had. No parking in back all spots are marked for the apartments so we parked on the street up front no biggy. If you dig Sours make the stop and enjoy their twist on this good style beverage.

This was another place we found on the Tag A Brew site for locally brewed beer. This was a quiet place right off Wealthy Street (drive slow or you will miss it). My husband had another flight here to sample their beers and he really enjoyed them also.

This is a great local brewery. The space they have is very inviting, the staff are very friendly and their beer is fantastic! I tried their Margarita sour and my friend had the blueberry lavender lager and both were great! Highly recommend if you are in the area and like beer!

The best sour beer crafter in Michigan. Hands down my favorite place to spend chill time with loved ones while sipping on handcrafted specialty beverages! Everything is good, some are great, and some are so amazing you only get to taste it once and it's gone. Don't miss this craft company if you have the chance to try anything they produce, you won't be disappointed. They even have "clean" beer now, meaning non-sour, and it's top notch just like their other products!

Hands down our favorite brewery in GR. Love the sours and the slushies in the summer! Wednesday trivia is awesome, Friday concerts are super fun, there’s always something to do!

This is a relatively small brewery, tucked back off the street. There’s a decent amount of seating for their size and they have a nice little outdoor patio as well. Either in flavor or back story, most of their beer and wines are incredibly unique. They tend to brew things you actually won’t find most other places, which makes them stand out. My guess is you’ll want to grab a flight because you’ll want to try them all!
