Wet Whistle Wine Fest offers award-winning wines, a grape stomp, hearty sandwiches, & live music! It isn’t the 2,000 visitors smiling all the time that’s weird. Nor is it the trombonist standing in a grape-filled barrel while playing an amazing riff, nor the people with sticky purple feet dancing onstage. This is normal at a wine fest and to be expected. What’s odd at Wet Whistle Wine Fest are all the costumes. We don’t ask anyone to show up dressed as wine bottles, or happy nuns who love Naughty Girl wine. These are just a couple examples of Wet Whistle Wine Fest goings-on that we just couldn’t make up. Don’t take our word for it… come to the wine fest and see it for yourself!
This Wet Whistle Wine Fest is a fundraiser for the Community Improvement of Algoma, and the Algoma Fire and Rescue. Come out to support these great non-profit organizations of Algoma!

The BrewVino Steer Roast is a wine and beer event of a different flavor!
Steer Roast • Special Wine and Beer Release • Quality Music
Saturday, June 8, from 11am to 5pm.
Purchase tickets at the bottom of the page!
$25 ticket price includes admission, delicious food, water, a commemorative glass, and fantastic tunes provided by Conscious Pilot and Mocking Bird!
*If tickets sell out online, they will not be available on the day of the event.
You’ll have the chance to taste the most popular varieties of von Stiehl wines and Ahnapee brews during the event and enjoy the opportunity to buy an exclusive batch each of wine and beer produced just for the event.
What’s so special about the steer roast? For starters, the steer is unique.
Spent grains from the brewery are currently being fed to our steer at the Bryersquart Family Farm, one of the top farms in polled genetic cattle in Door County. Bryersquart is family to one of the winery owners. The steer is well cared for by Scott Jeanquart, a genetic expert, who is growing one of Door County’s finest herds. His animals and embryos are sold at auction to buyers in the United States and beyond.
Why is the steer roast called the “BrewVino Roast?”
This steer is raised on Ahnapee Brewery spent grains at the Bryersquart Family Farm (Brew). Prior to the roast, the steer is bathed in a cherry wine marinade (Vino). This is a true farm-to-table experience! And not just anybody is preparing this feast. For starters, the steer is processed by Otto’s Meats in Luxemburg. von Stiehl Winemaker, Aric Schmiling, prepares the special cherry and red wine marinade. Then, the full carcass is marinated for 24 hours prior to the steer roast. The roast begins with a hot fire at 3 am on the day of the event, with a serving time somewhere between noon and 2 pm.
FAQs
What does everything cost?
The ticket for this event costs $25 and includes admission, the steer plate, bottled water, a commemorative glass, and fantastic tunes. Wine and beer are àla carte. If there’s extra food after everyone’s been served, you will have the opportunity to buy extras!
A Super Select wine tasting will also be available for purchase in our cellars for $15.
Kewaunee County sales tax and an 85¢ online ticketing fee are added to e-commerce sales.

What’s on the steer plate?
Beef, corn on the cob, and other fixings, which might include a roll, beans and coleslaw.
Should I bring a chair?
It might not hurt. We have seating for around 300, and a capped attendance of 750. People do come and go, so getting a table isn’t super hard.
Is it rain or shine?
You bet. Also keep in mind that Lake Michigan can offer a chilly 45 degree wind anytime before the 4th of July. It would be wise to bring layers and a jacket.
Is there free wine and beer tasting?
Not inside the event grounds. Inside the winery, we offer complimentary tasting. The brewery almost never gives away their beer, but 5-ounce samplers sell in the tap room for $2 each.

Bored from being inside this winter? Jump in the car, go for a drive, and visit us any Saturday in February and enjoy complimentary samples of various sweet treats.
Sweet treats we will be featuring are near and dear to us because they are from local confectioners. That means you may find a new favorite. We will even let you know which wine pairs well with each sweet!
*Confectioners will be onsite from Noon – 3 pm each Saturday in February.*
Anything sampled will be available for purchase, in case the sample kept you craving for more!
Make your day even sweeter by enjoying wine tastings! We recommend trying our Cherry Bounce or Apple Bounce, as they are brandy fortified and an extraordinary treat.
If sweets aren’t your thing, don’t worry… we have plenty of delectable dry wines, such as our Pinot Noir, Calistoga Cabernet, and our 2016 El Dorado Dolcetto. And if you feel like snacking, we have an array of gourmet cheeses.
Why not make a weekend of it and reserve spots on our VIP Tour that takes place on Friday afternoons! It includes a behind the scenes tour with one of our wine makers and a three course pairing.
Looking for a place to stay? We recommend staying at Hotel Stebbins if you want to be within walking distance. Otherwise, view all of Algoma’s Lodging here.

Bored from being inside this winter? Jump in the car, go for a drive, and visit us any Saturday in February and enjoy complimentary samples of various sweet treats.
Sweet treats we will be featuring are near and dear to us because they are from local confectioners. That means you may find a new favorite. We will even let you know which wine pairs well with each sweet!
*Confectioners will be onsite from Noon – 3 pm each Saturday in February.*
Anything sampled will be available for purchase, in case the sample kept you craving for more!
Make your day even sweeter by enjoying wine tastings! We recommend trying our Cherry Bounce or Apple Bounce, as they are brandy fortified and an extraordinary treat.
If sweets aren’t your thing, don’t worry… we have plenty of delectable dry wines, such as our Pinot Noir, Calistoga Cabernet, and our 2016 El Dorado Dolcetto. And if you feel like snacking, we have an array of gourmet cheeses.
Why not make a weekend of it and reserve spots on our VIP Tour that takes place on Friday afternoons! It includes a behind the scenes tour with one of our wine makers and a three course pairing.
Looking for a place to stay? We recommend staying at Hotel Stebbins if you want to be within walking distance. Otherwise, view all of Algoma’s Lodging here.

Join us as the Annie Rose Band ends our 2018 Summer Concert Series September 1st from 12:30-4:00 pm. Annie Rose is often referred to as “Green Bay’s best kept secret.”
The music is going to be great. Add a cool Lake Michigan breeze, a beautiful riverside view, a glass of your favorite von Stiehl wine, or maybe even a beer fromAhnapee Brewery and then you have the recipe for the perfect lakeside summer afternoon.
New this year, we are re-releasing one of our vintage wines each Saturday. Sample a re-released vintage wine in our tasting room, for an additional $1 when tasting our Select Wine Tasting. Keep in mind that we may run out of certain offerings as the day goes on. It’s both a sad, and a happy time! Our vintage wine for this Saturday is our 2009 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon.
We’ve also changed the layout this year, as we no longer have a tent on the front lawn for wine sales. Instead, we will be serving wine out our window and inside the winery, allowing for cash and card sales. We will also have a couple of hostesses each concert to provide table service for wine by the bottle. Beer will be available at the Taproom, but still can be enjoyed on the terrace.
The Skaliwagon Food Truck will not be with us this year. Instead, we recommend trying our Picnic Box for 2. The Picnic Box will include local Wisconsin cheeses, crackers, von Stiehl’s Hard Cider Sausage from Salmon’s Meats made with our Hard Cider, Door County munchies, Halo Vino glasses and other yummy snacks fit for two. This box can be found in our Tasting Room or ordered at the window.
Arrive before the concert starts to sample some of our gourmet wines in our Civil War era building that is listed on theNational Register of Historic Places, or even take a tour including a visit to our underground limestone tunnels and our 10,000 square foot production facility.
Admission is free.
*Bands may be subject to change. Sorry, no food or drink carry-ins allowed, but wine, beer, food, water & soda will be available for purchase.
