"Lovers of wine, beer, and whisky don't have to choose between them when they visit Wayne Gretzky Estates Winery & Distillery. Founded by the Great One, there's plenty to do when you visit the winery, which is located at 1219 Niagara Stone Road in Niagara-on-the-Lake. Along with tours, tastings, classes, and dining, in the winter you can even skate on the backyard ice rink."

"Why You Need To Go: Unlike the other wineries, what makes this spot unique is your tasting allows you to sample wine, whiskey and beer. Or you can relax in the beer garden with a cold beverage and snacks. Just make sure to head with no more than three friends, as groups larger than four people need to sit at a separate table."

"After having a blast at the Niagara Icewine Festival, Olivia and I decided to pay Wayne Gretzky Estates a visit. While I’ve had their wine and I was not impressed, the complex sure did!. Maybe I just tried a bad batch of wine as the white I tried had almost sour-like qualities?"

"Clifford has been providing delicious beer to nearly a hundred licensed establishments since 2015. However, in a way they are the newest brewery on this list as they just moved into a permanent location on Nash Road only a few months ago. It will be open to the public later this January and I’m excited to see what new beers they come up with."

"In the east end, brewer Brad Clifford launched his namesake brewery in 2015 with Pinball Wizard APA and Clifford Porter. Since then, he’s added East Hamilton Lager and four other beers to the mix. Not sure which one to choose?"

The restaurant is set in an old warehouse, featuring an open concept interior that allows diners to watch sports on the TV or enjoy live music performed on its small stage."

"Co-founders Greg Gnys and Joe Sartor dreamed up a brewery concept based on a fusion of two ideas that ended up coming together in a rather serendipitous way. Counterpart Brewing’s Hospitality Manager Eric Klein shared, “Greg was moving home from Burnaby, British Columbia to fulfill his dream of opening a local community focused brewery in his home town of Niagara Falls while at the same time Joe was moving home from Vancouver to open up a restaurant of his own. After learning through family members who worked together in Niagara that not only were they moving home for similar purposes but at almost the exact same time a meeting was set."

"This almost-two-year-old brewery in Niagara is good for more than just beer. Don’t get us wrong, the beer is out of this world, but what’s coming out of the kitchen is just as delicious. You basically can’t go wrong, but anything that involves fried chicken is a must-try, as is whatever iteration of mussels is on the menu—and if you’re not into meat, the fried cauliflower plate is a winner."

"Located in a West Side building that formerly housed the old Schaefer Malt House, Community Beer Works is a leader in Buffalo’s booming craft beer scene.

Tour seasonal displays within the tropical foyer and three stunning display houses. Beyond the foyer doors, guests can also enjoy outdoor gardens and ponds featuring a miniature village and train."

"Don’t judge a book by its cover, which should be the motto of this museum. Look beyond the waxy veneer, the often attributed creepiness, and consider a great opportunity to learn history from a more personal perspective. While the wax figures will always look slightly ‘off’ from a typical human point of view, the history that compliments it makes for a vibrant experience."

"Some of the greatest mysteries of the world have been solved through science.
