Reviews for Speciation Artisan Ales & Native Species Winery in Grand Rapids, MI

Loved trying the beers and wine here! Lots of sour beers, but they were all so flavorful. Jane was so friendly and gave us a lot... of other recommendations to check out around town. Very relaxing atmosphere and fun place to watch the football game. Read more

I?m not into the sour/saison/farmhouse ale thing personally (clearly their primary styles) but between the wheat ale and lager I... drank these folks are clearly competent breweries. If those styles are your thing I can only assume this place should be at thetop of your list in MI. I liked the vibe. Open garage door slightly off the beaten path but not way out of the way from a hiplittle nook of town. Wife enjoyed a gin barrel aged wine as well. All-in-all I?d say it was one of the better brewery options inGrand Rapids Read more

Without a doubt, this is one of the best breweries in the nation, particularly if you love sours. I lived in Austin for years... and frequently visited Jester King (considered the best brewery in Texas). They blow those guys out of the water. Read more

I hesitate to let the masses in on our happy little secret of mind blowing concoctions of herbs and spiked drinks, but I will... because they deserve the recognition. Read more

I wish I had known about this place sooner. Could quite possibly be my favorite brewery in Grand Rapids so far. It?s tucked away... behind another business and is in an old auto repair shop I believe. Amazing staff and a very cool vibe to this place. Reallyunusual beers to choose from and they make what is now my favorite sour the Megatrajectory. They also make slushes and smoothieswith their seltzer?s. Read more

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 andit's gone. Don't miss this craft company if you have the chance to try anything they produce, you won't be disappointed. Theyeven have "clean" beer now, meaning non-sour, and it's top notch just like their other products! Read more

Interesting vibe, with experimental music and biodiversity theme. Coolest looking T-shirts of any brewery I?ve been to. And the... beers were generally amazing. A 4.13 rating on Untappd is well earned. Awesome place and now on my Favorites list. Read more

If you love sours, you have to try Speciation. Super tart and flavorful sour beer. I suggest getting the flight to try 4... different beers! Very cool location off wealthy street behind another building. Chill and welcoming vibe. They do not servefood, but they let you bring in your own food or order delivery to their building. They also have a small selection of boardgames you can use while you are there. Will return in the future. Read more
