If wine isn’t your thing ...

By Lesley Bourne World staff writer To those craving an authentic craft beer and relaxed pub atmosphere after a day on Lake Chelan, there’s a place for you.

Drive out to Manson and you’ll reach Lake Chelan Brewery, a brewpub tucked away in the town’s calm streets.

The owners and brothers Ray and Lee Medina have developed their business to include four full-time brews and a fifth, seasonal lager that dips in when the temperature is right. Their operation began during the brothers’ construction days when they decided change routes and transform their passion into a business.

“My brother Ray in high school, he grew up working at a home brew shop…so we kind of carried it on from there,” said Lee Medina. “We’d always brewed beer, and decided to throw our alcohol-tobacco license in and got it, and now we’re serving and selling beer.”

Beer connoisseurs can detach from the Chelan hustle and bustle at the brewpub, which has maintained its low-key vibe even as it became a seven-barrel operation last winter. As Lee described, Manson is a little more laidback and a place where people can get away.

At the brewery, visitors will find a sense of community within an easygoing atmosphere. Above buoying voices, music fills the small space, and there are the several boxes packed with Led Zeppelin, Elton John, Billy Joel, Johnny Cash and more, which customers can browse through and play on the record player hooked up to the pub’s sound system.

There is also a community fixture written all over the place — quite literally. By

A sampler of four beers at Lake Chelan Brewery in Manson. making a donation to the Lake Chelan Food Bank, customers get to pick a spot on the exposed brick wall and make it their own.

Colorful signatures of Seahawks pride are aplenty.

If you’re hungry, the menu offers a fresh array of appetizers and lunch or dinner options. Fan favorites are hearty sandwiches and hamburgers on a menu rounded out by pulled pork poutine, hot wings, zucchini fries, and more.

And at the heart, of course, is the beer.

Ray brews on Fridays and Lee brews on Tuesdays. As mentioned, the brothers have four regulars: Manson Beach Blonde, Devil’s Backbone IPA, Mackinaw Red Amber and Imperial Prize Fighter Irish Stout, as well as the

seasonal Heaven’s Lager. What sets their craft beer apart? It’s in the water.

“We just want people to come and see that Lake Chelan has some of the cleanest drinking water in the area. It’s like the third cleanest lake in the nation, and I think a lot of our beer and the actual flavor of our beer has to do with the water,” said Lee. With clear tastes and compelling finishes, each beer offers its own unique experience to customers. In my time testing the sampler for our readers’ safety, one thing’s for sure: a single visit to their brewery and I am now an IPA believer.

“That’s the best thing,” said Lee. “Knowing that people are enjoying the beer we make.”

Montgomery Gentry is New Age piano pioneer coming to town Saturday Scott Cossu plays Chelan Photo provided/ montgomerygentry.com

Country duo Montgomery Gentry will perform Saturday night at Deep Water Amphitheater at Mill Bay Casino in Manson.

The longtime country duo Montgomery Gentry, featuring Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry, are bringing their good ‘ol fashioned country sounds to Manson this Saturday.

The show starts at 7:30 p.m. at Deep Water Amphitheater at Mill Bay Casino. This will be their last show in

Washington for the foreseeable future, following a performance in Walla Walla earlier this week.

Known for their hits “Hell Yeah” and “Something To Be Proud Of,” they most recently released an album in June of last year titled “Folks Like Us.” They’ve been making music and performing live since

1999, but they’re still proudly bringing their foot-stomping hits to the big stage with the same energy that won them “Favorite New Country Artist” and “Top New Vocal Duo” in the late ‘90s and early 2000s. Tickets cost $42-$92. For more information: 1-800-648-2964.

— Holly Thorpe

In 2000, Scott Cossu was awarded the Achievement in Music Award, an award given to someone has made exceptional contributions to music. His years as an accomplished pianist with a talent for jazz and an ear for new and unique riffs got him there. This year, Cossu has been nominated for the Lifetime Achievement Award

by One World Music Radio, and the polls are open to vote at oneworldmusic.co.uk.

Never heard Cossu play before? You’ll have a chance at 7 p.m. Sunday at the Lake Chelan United Methodist Church, where he’ll be playing a benefit concert accompanied by Seattle jazz

WINE

Wine industry brings new life

By Rick Steigmeyer Lake Chelan This Week MANSON — With nearly 20 wineries and wine-tasting rooms within walking distance or a few minutes ride by bike or car, Manson has become one of the state’s most popular new places to sip

to Manson

boutique wines.

And this year, so far without the danger of wildfires and irritation of thick smoke, business is booming.

Situated on the North Shore of Lake Chelan, Manson thrives in spring through fall when it attracts droves of tourists, vacationers and condominium

owners. If the lake itself isn’t enough of a draw with swimming, boating, and fishing, there’s the Colville Casino and its Deepwater Amphitheater concerts and a lively downtown Manson shopping and dining area.

And now there is wine culture.

Over the past dozen years or so, more

vineyards have been planted to take advantage of the Lake Chelan microclimate, long famed for growing apples.

The same lake-warmed temperate weather and glacial soils that are good for apples have proved equally suitable for growing Please see WINE, Page 12

wine grapes.

Starting with Lake Chelan Winery in 2000, new wineries have opened up year by year to offer visitors yet another way to enjoy the region. Steve and Bobbi Kludt started out growing apples in Manson in the mid-1970s. They managed a comfortable living for years until apple prices plummeted due to overproduction and other problems in the late 1990s.

In 1998, the Kludts and then-partners Bob Christopher and Jim Stephens planted the first commercial vineyard around the lake and one of the first in North Central Washington. They started Lake Chelan Winery two years later. The Kludts opened a second winery, Wapato Point Cellars, in 2003. Later, they opened restaurants at both sites.

Paul and Kathy Benson purchased apple land just above Lake Chelan Winery that same year. With their sons, Jeff and Scott, they began planting vineyard on 28 acres in 2002. They opened Benson Estate Vineyards Winery in 2004.

“The people who have watched us for nearly 20 years know what can be done here,” said Jeff Benson, about the influx of new wineries. “People told us we couldn’t grow grapes here. We showed them can not only grow great whites, we can grow reds.”

Lake Chelan tourism took a hit the past two years as wildfires and lingering smoke forced

vacationers to flee or cancel reservations. Still, Benson said the winery has grown busier each year.

“We’ve stuck to our business plan from the get-go. I haven’t been to another winery because I’ve been too busy here to leave,” he said.

A stop at the Italian villa-themed winery last week saw limousines, buses and vans bringing in large groups of visitors eager to taste Benson’s wines while taking in the scenic views of vineyards rolling down toward Lake Chelan.

“We were slated to come up here last year, but the fires kept us

away,” said Harold Jantz of Tacoma. He and his wife Peggy were visiting two or three wineries each day during their stay in a Wapato Point condominium.

Wine servers Jamie Bruno and Jared McGuffin were pouring samples as fast as they could for a large group of young women who came to the lake for a wedding.

Ronnie Kehl, owner of Lakeside Limousine, said he drives carloads of visitors to wineries around the lake all day long.

“We started in 2005 with one car, now we’re nine deep. There were three wineries

back then, now there’s north of 30 around the lake. It’s been good for everybody,” Kehl said. He said his limos take out a “staggering” number of cases of wine for guests.

Wine industry growth has also been good for Scott Meyers, who owns Lake Chelan Cheese, the cheese shop that moved into Lake Chelan Winery four years ago.

“The wine industry has taken off and it’s been good for everybody,” Meyers said. “The wineries have paved the way for us. We knew this would eventually help bring yeararound business, and it’s happened even faster than we expected.”

Dianna Kopak, head wine server at Lake Chelan Winery, said the cheese shop as well as other local wineries and businesses work together seamlessly and bring new customers to each other. “Business has been fabulous,” she said.

The Kludts early on envisioned Lake Chelan becoming the Northwest Napa. One of several consultants they and other wine pioneers invited to the area to help them get started was Katy Perry.

She had worked as a winemaker for 15 years in Napa for famous wineries like Robert Mondavi and Stags Leap before she was hired by Chateau Ste.

Michelle to head up its white wine production.

She was so impressed with Manson’s potential, she purchased property there in 2001 and with her husband, Milum, started Tildio Winery.

Cheryl Nelson, Tildio’s sales manager, said the proliferation of wineries in the Manson area has only helped business.

“It’s like car dealerships,” Nelson said.

“They all want to be in the same place because everyone wants to test drive more than one car.

People want to taste more than one wine too. We’re not even close to the saturation point here yet.”

BOOKS The Bear and the Piano

By David Litchfield “When a young bear cub happens upon a piano abandoned in the forest, he’s not sure what to make of it or of the strange sounds that come out of it. Unable to resist the pull of this mysterious contraption, Bear starts to spend most of his time playing with the piano and over time begins to create beautiful music. One day, while out on a hike, a girl and her father come upon Bear during one of his ‘concerts.’ The young girl convinces Bear to return to the city where he can become a star, playing the piano in sold-out concert halls. Bear, longing to see what the world has to offer outside the forest, agrees to go. He soon becomes a smash hit with top-selling albums and all the fame he could ever wish for. But what is all that fame without sharing it with the people you love?”
