Kelsey Grammer was recently in the news due to the possibility of a Frasier reboot. It was exciting news for fans of the show. While Frasier Crane was an avid sherry lover, what you may not know about Grammer is that he’s working on opening a brewery in the Delaware Country near the Catskill Mountains called Faith American Ale. He bought the land over 25 years ago because he loved going to area when he was growing up, starting a celebrity vacation trend. The actor went into rehab in 1996, but has stopped going to AA and enjoys a drink from time to time.

Somewhere along the way, Sting teamed up with Shaggy, making celebrity news. This has made his music relevant to a whole new set of fans. When not making music, Sting is giving his time to wine. Italy has been one of Sting’s favorite places to spend time with his wife. The iconic couple is making the wine on their estate, Villa II Palagio. All of the wines are named after Sting’s biggest hits, since he says “ a wine is like a song- it has a story to tell”. If you want, you can rent the villa for a romantic getaway and sip copious amounts of Italian wine.
Jensen Ackles is known to his fans as one half of the Winchester boys on Supernatural. When he’s not slaying demons, Ackles is all about beer.

Their goal is to bring people together over good beer, food, and music in their Austin-based tap room. Take Ackles relationship advice: the couple that brews beer together stays together.
Nicki Minaj recently caused a stir on Twitter by claiming her album was delayed due to not being able to have a song cleared by the music legend, Tracy Chapman.

It’s easy to miss that she has a line of bubbly moscatos and sangrias called Myx Fusions. According to Minaj, she didn’t want to create an ordinary wine, though it’s safe to say anything Minaj does wouldn’t be considered ordinary.
