If the bread basket is your favorite part of dinner, this is your event!

Join us on Sunday, June 14 for Butter Together, a brand-new pairing experience built around three things that never let you down: great bread, really good butter, and artisanal wine.

We pulled together a small lineup of Northern Michigan makers we genuinely love, then built the pairings around what they do best. You’ll taste breads and butters from Farm Club and 9 Bean Rows, plus a German-style rye Vollkornbrot from Martin Sorge, winner of The Great American Baking Show and a long-time FIZZ Club member. We are also excited to feature pre-orders of Martin's upcoming cookbook, Great Bakes: Modern Classic Recipes from the Midwestbefore its August 4, 2026 release.

Here’s how it works: you’ll start with a welcome pour, then move through three tasting stations under the MAWBY tent. Each station includes a unique bread + butter pairing, plus a 3 oz wine pour selected to match. In total, you’ll enjoy four pours featuring MAWBY and bigLITTLE wines. Additionally, Farm Club will be setting the table with locally sourced, fresh vegetables and pickled items to enjoy alongside the pairings.

Ticket holders will also receive special savings at the 9 Bean Rows storefront in Suttons Bay, because the bread obsession does not have to end when the event does. Plus, anyone who purchases during the early bird window will be entered to win a signed copy of Martin Sorge’s upcoming cookbook.
