Making their own spirits, beer, etc plus food! Had a nice bite, beer, and even got a roadie (something to put in the cooler). They have to go beverages and good beer. I bought the tag a brew, stickers, etc. I managed not to buy a t-shirt... I confess the biz cat had me at hello.. leave me alone I am enjoying the sun. Great spot and not too far away you can actually buy real swords and stuff. So make it a day trip! read more

They have a weekly euchre league, trivia nights, craft night and more. It's a great place to go for fun.

A nice stop in the grand ledge area. My husband and I were on the beer trail, so we opted for that- but they're cocktail list looked good. Not a huge kitchen, but there are food options available if you're hungry. Or you can just snag a bag of pretzels like we did! read more

Always been a customer of their fine beers. Our office tried the new food menu today and it was terrific! I had the BBQ pork nachos. Coworkers had chicken wings, wraps, and tater tots. Lovely gluten free option of a wrap with a gluten free spinach wrap, super nice for our gluten free co-worker. She said it was delicious. Highly recommend. read more

Home-town ambience with some good beer and cider options. Some good food options. Mexican food truck on the lot. Indoors or out an option. Good place for groups or couples. read more

Wow!! We loved it here!! We decided to take a day trip to Lansing and grab some tagabrews. Our plan was to come and check it out. Have a drink, grab a tag, and move on. Buuuuttt... We walked in to a full house. And found out it's TRIVIA NIGHT!!! We love trivia and have been partners for the past 10 years. Well they had already started so we knew we couldn't actually play. That's ok though. We started helping two guys next to us and then basically became a part of their team. We had an absolute blast!!!we never moved on from that spot and stayed all night theree. They had great beers and some really amazing cocktails. I may have over indulged a bit lol. They had these great tagabrews. Omg I loved them. The atmosphere was perfect. The bartenders super fun and friendly. The crowd was full of energy and really some genuinely fun people there. I would happily go back!! We loved it!!! read more

Nice place good vibe and a variety of dinks. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Stopped by as part of a road trip to take a break from driving. Not very impressed with the interior design and atmosphere. Staff bartender wasn't very engaging as I asked if their wines, ciders, and spirits were all brewed / bottled locally and they just responded yes. Most bars and tasting locations would be more engaging with the history and details. Cider was good. No food menu (or at least not offered to us). Pass. read more

I wish this place had a decent cocktail list or some more wine options. They are heavy on the beer option and that's about it. The food track out back is good and the outdoor seating is nice. The ambiance inside is disappointing unfortunately. If some money and design were invested in the place this could really be the spot in grand ledge . No effort was made and with the name and the fact that this was an old church, there is so much potential to make this into a cool location that draws bigger crowds. read more

Such a great environment with everything from beer, cider, cocktails and food truck! Seating from bar, table or couches making it great for a simple trip or big groups! So much entertainment with back drops and art to look at! read more

I go for Trivia Night. Their wines and spirits are expertly crafted, and they even make a plum wine from fruit picked from a tree out back. Reasonable prices. And they welcome customers who bring in food from the equally wonderful Mexican truck in the parking lot. read more

Good beer great vibe. The atmosphere is honey and friendly. Would be 5 Stars if the food was inhouse not a truck outside. read more

Great place to go and have a few beverages. It was trivia night so it was pretty full. They have a taco truck out in the parking lot which I didn't eat but I believe it's pretty much there all the time. Several good options for beer and spirits. Cool place and hope to stop by again read more

Nice outside patio is what I go for. Inside tends to be loud and packed but I enjoy the beer and it's a unique setting. Service is ok to great depending on the people working. read more

This awesome little distillery is in a converted church. I guess that's where they get the name! It's a favorite spot of my sister's so we stopped in during their open hours. You can try anything you'd like, all their liquors are made in house and there are plans to expand to beer and wine eventually. On certain days (mostly Saturdays I believe), they have a food truck parked outside for purchase, which goes nicely with their drinks. Their spirits are carefully made in very small batches. I highly recommend giving them a shot, they're just a super cute little distillery on Saginaw Highway in Grand Ledge, a very small town on the outskirts of Lansing. I sampled pretty much everything they had and landed on a vodka tonic as the drink I bought. I was excited because they have the same ice machine I have, which makes little bullet shaped ice cubes! The owner/manager gave me a tour of the facility and showed me how everything was made. It was a short tour, just the one room with the one working machine. That's how small batch these liquors are. So very cool. read more

Made my first trip to Sanctuary Spirits for a work social event and had a great time playing trivia! Starting at 6:30pm every Monday, the bar has a team trivia game that is free of charge and offers gift certificates for the top three teams. The trivia games lasted about two hours and went at just the right pace. I tried two of their beers (the Raspberry Saison and the brown) and both were great. I also loved that they had a taco food truck in the parking lot and that you could bring your food into the bar to eat. I'll save my review of the food truck for another post, but all-in-all, the experience was nice and we will definitely be back! read more

Converted an old church into a brewery/distillery pretty interesting use of space. Some nice leather sofas to sit on and also plenty of regular table seating through out the brewery. A lot to offer they have beer, cider, wine and cocktails so there is a little bit of everything for everyone. Beer was pretty middle of the road, nothing overly amazing but it wasnt bad, same goes for the cider, decent, not bad, not amazing. They only had about 6 beers and 4 ciders on tab so we tried what we could. Worth a peak if you are in the area and glad i got to see it, wouldnt make a special trip just to come here but not bad. read more

Fabulous spot for a social chill night at the bar. A very relaxed lounge environment with nice staff. I'm not a beer drinker but my husband was very happy with the selection. Can't wait to be back! read more

Awesome awesome awesome. We took over this bar after my grandmother's funeral and the staff was just great. Wonderful drinks, great open atmosphere with an amazing outdoor space and rustic decor. This is an excellent spot to gather with friends and family for any occasion. read more

Great beer and fair prices. My wife likes the orange cream drink made with vodka that they distill themselves.

Finally checked out this brewery, didnt even know it existed for the longest time. The beer was ok and the service was fine. They don't serve food but have a truck out front. Not the typical craft brewery vibe. Pretty bland place. read more

Love the atmosphere at this place! One of my wife's and I favorite things to do is spend the day kayaking in Grand Ledge, then hit this brewery. As an added bonus there is an amazing taco truck out front. This place has some awesome brews and ciders. read more

We stopped in 10 beers on tap, in addition to ciders and spirits. I tried the beer and cider I found the beer to be above average and the mixed berry cider, pineapple cider fantastic. It is a nice venue it is a converted church. I like the vibe and Jessie our sever is fantastic. They had a food truck on site! This is a must try venue. I will be back! read more

Stopped back in to try their mixed drinks. The prices are awesome and I was pleasantly surprised to be served a Wisconsin-style Bloody Mary, complete with a sausage and cheese garnish. There's also free popcorn. I'm a fan. read more

Very slow, one bartender had to stand in line to get a drink. Beer is good, atmosphere original. If there was table service it would be much better. read more

This is a fun place good drinks they have beer wine and spirits. And also great service and a taco truck out front love it

I was in town for a few nights and checked out the brewery. I had the rye whiskey and the bourbon. Both were amazingly smooth and taste great. I bought a bottle of the bourbon. Staff was friendly and the facility was clean. Side note, the taco truck the is stationed in the driveway served one of the better burritos I've had in a long time at a decent price. $10 for burrito, rice and beans. read more

This place is what I imagine an old Meadery Hall to be like... only in modern times. 12 Brew offerrings, 10 Spirits, all made in house!!! Sancturary Spirits is micro brewery that has a relaxed vibe, and a nice and open feel inside. -Great place for a business meeting, clubs, a 5 o'clock drink after work. Definitely one of the hidden gems of Grand Ledge. There's a friendly staff, warm, welcoming atmosphere... check it out! read more

Carl is awesome! I started with some questions about hard cider making a few years back. Now, I have since been making wine as well. He teaches me in a way that even I can understand and make it happen. read more
