Flight
Amanda R.

This place was great, but unfortunately, I don't think I'm a mead fan, in general. The bartender was friendly, explained our options for ordering, poured our flight, and then gave us tasting tips. The bar was great and the people who worked there were incredibly friendly and willing to talk about their place. My favorite was the mead with cinnamon and apple, followed by the maple. It's definitely worth a try to see if you like mead!

Many options

Four Brothers Mead is worth the drive if you are in St Louis. These guys are passionate about their mead and if you have never had mead...they will forever be your mead standard. No preservatives, artifice flavors. Honey water yeast. If flavored, they have just add simple ingredients. Maple from Vermont, orange peals, etc. Find your inner Viking, and get to meading. And they sponsor two Viking fests a year. The owners are also US Veterans, hence the name Four Brothers Mead. Dan is usually there and he is genuinely one of the nicest people I have met. Everyone is great. Too bad I didn't know them when they came up with. It could have been four brothers and a distant ugly cousin Mead. Nevermind, doesn't have the same ring to it.

This is a really unique place. If you haven't had mead, you've got to try it. Mead is developed from Honey, Sugar and Water and infused with other spices or fruits. My favorite was the Blackberry and Maple infused mead. Good stuff. The Four Brothers have a well written description of their brotherhood from serving in the Armed Forces of the United States that makes me want to support them further. One of the unique things I liked was the collection of replica weapons on the walls in the bar....they had spears, swords and other weapon decorations. Four Brother's location is in downtown Festus and has plenty of seating both indoor or outdoor. With the warmer weather this will be a fun place to gather with friends. A nice addition would be some munchies or food to go with the mead and to increase mead consumption and individual average transactions.

Really cool atmosphere and some kick-butt wines. The alcohol content in them is pretty high- so drink accordingly . Super-friendly staff too. Would definitely recommend!!

Love this place! Great atmosphere and welcoming friendly staff! Slushies and mead cocktails are the best! Also the Vikings Festival is an all out experience itself!!!

Wonderful tasting! Great staff and friendly regulars. The Yggdrasil Sap was my favorite.

Every place we stopped in town asked if we had been to Four Brothers Mead yet? Four days later we stopped in and had a flight of 6 different meads. Definitely now a fan of Mead and more importantly Four Brothers Mead in Festus, MO!

6 - 2 oz pours of Mead flight

This was my husband and I's first time here and it Did not disappoint!!! Walking in we were greeted by Felicia and Coral behind the bar. They were very sweet and very welcoming.. the place was beautiful... from the decor to the beautiful bar top with lights... great patio!! Felicia and Coral described each mead that was on the menu and we decided to each get a flight of mead which was 6 meads- 2oz pours. Every single one was delicious. My favorite was the Maple- then the Blackberry. This is a must visit if you are in the area... This is a Veteran Owned Business!! Thank you so much for your service!

First visit to La Chance winery, such a nice place, rustic and so pretty…read more We had made reservations for four tables as we had 25 ladies celebrating a bride to be. We got there before opening at 11:00, the staff was still busy setting up but let us stand near the restrooms till they opened. We got settled in the new pavilion, it was a large room with a bar, a stage for the musical guests, and lots of tables of various sizes. There is a room at the entrance for wine tasting but for everything else you can order there or the bar in the pavilion. I waited for a bit to go for the tasting to let the rush die down. There were still a few people waiting for coffee and we were chatting and when I went to place my order for the wine tasting the bartender commented that she had just put everything away. Hmm, if it weren't for that I would have given 5 stars but that made me feel like I was a bother but that was literally her job. I didn't do any more tastings and did the rest of my orders at the outside bar. The rest of the day was wonderful, the sun came out but the day kept cool. We moved inside and outside, Two Pedro's played and we watched couple's dance. Tried the three flavors of Sangria; white peach, strawberry, and autumn. My favorite was the autumn with its cinnamon apple spice. It was a very peaceful place, laid back but efficient

Jamie did a wonderful job of coordinating my daughters rehearsal dinner and wedding this weekend,…read morealong with a full service team for food service, bar service and event set up. Food was fresh, delicious and portions were generous. With plans for an outdoor wedding, this venue is prepared for any weather and can quickly prepare for last minute changes. We opted for the outdoor tent. This area has a beautiful backdrop of the lake and vineyard with great lighting in the tent and nearby walking areas. Food and drink is served indoors with plenty of processional space. There is also a separate terrace below the tent for cocktail hour or special gatherings. I would definitely recommend this venue for your special event.

I've visited many times over the years and have even hosted a few celebrations here. The winery continues to evolve, and it impresses me every time I return. The food alone is worth the drive. I ordered the wood-fired sausage pizza, and it was absolutely delicious. I would put it up against pizza from any restaurant in St. Louis or on The Hill. The cheese blend was perfect, and the thin crust made it satisfying without feeling too heavy on a warm day. I highly recommend it. There was also a great live music duo playing, along with several special events that added to the festive atmosphere. I saw birthday celebrations, including a 70th birthday party at the Lakeside Pavilion, as well as a bridal shower and a wedding reception. Even with so much happening, the staff was friendly and attentive, and I didn't have a long wait for my food. There are plenty of unique spaces within the property. Some are for private events, but there was plenty of room open to the public so you could be right in the middle of the action or you could find a little peaceful corner by the grapevines. Villa Antonio is such a lovely place to spend an afternoon. It is well worth the short 35 minute drive from Webster Groves.

I can't begin to explain what a great spot this is!…read more It is dog friendly, it is wide open and beautiful, it has lots of live music, it is run by a family that is so very nice, and it is super affordable and tastes great! You can get a flight of wines for $5 or a glass of wine or a pint of beer for $5 each. You can even do a tour and tasting for $10. Plus, all the bottles are pretty much under $25. And they have quite a large variety of whites, reds, and roses too. Cindy, one of the owners, is so very friendly and helpful. She will go through an entire tasting with you with the highest level of patience, allowing you to taste and try anything you'd like to. Her brother-in-law also Is a gem, he himself Popsicles to all of the kids running around and let them ride on the tractor or explore into the garden. Would highly recommend if you are in the area!

Arthur was the live music for the day and he played a great variety of songs (acoustic guitar). The wine is fantastic. I do not know a lot about wine, but I do know that each one we tasted (6) was very easy to drink. We shared a bottle there and I brought 2 home. Bonus: you can bring your own snacks (no beverages). I love this. I enjoy planning my own winery snacks. I was bummed when many wineries quit allowing food because they opened kitchens. So if I have to pay $30+ for food. I'm buying less wine. Anywaaaay, make a little weekend out of visiting this area and have a lovely time at Edg Clif. (Photos do not do it justice)

On a day when my MO Wine Passport holding companion and I went to between 5 and 7 wineries in a…read morerush to get to 30 Passport stamps before the end of the year, Sand Creek is the one where we spent the most time despite having another 2 or 3 wineries to visit before meeting family for holiday celebrations. It's the perfect sized winery. It's not a huge place where you most likely won't be remembered. It's not small like some of the wineries where hours are so limited that they'll be closed when you want to come by. Sand Creek Vineyard has the service of a small winery but the selection of a larger one. Yes, there is a good selection of wines, so my white dry companion had what she liked, and I was able to have a glass of something sweeter. We even saved a bottle for a craft. We don't do that for just any winery. The service was great. The owner (or possibly the winemaker) did a great job with the tasting and conversed with us, but not much after the tasting, as he had other customers and let us enjoy our post-holiday afternoon. It was a pleasure to spend an hour at Sand Creek, and I will be back.

I enjoyed this winery a lot, will definitely be returning. Good variety to the wines and they were…read morevery tasty. Loved the wine-a-ritas too. GREAT patio, cool outdoor area. Only downside was that the band playing was a bit loud, hide to kind of hide away. I can't wait to return when they are able to do tastings again, though - maybe at an off time when there isn't a band playing and less crowded. During pandemic time, they are keeping the indoors closed, having folks order at the door - wine by the bottle only plus the wine-a-ritas. We got a bottle of the blackberry and it was great.
