Discover Birdy: A Refreshing Tribute to Northern Michigan Summers

Meet the Gruman kids, a vibrant team of third-culture enthusiasts from Southeast Asia, embarking on the ride of their lives to revolutionize your drinking experience. Rooted in the belief that life is meant to be fun, they bring a fresh perspective to every sip.

Nurtured by the charm of Northern Michigan since the 1980s, the Gruman kids found their haven amidst its breathtaking landscapes, creating Birdy as a heartfelt homage to its magic.

Teaming up with the renowned Oosterhouse brothers of Bonobo Winery and their talented winemaker and lifelong friend, Cornel Olivier, Birdy became a labor of love, reflecting the unbreakable bonds of family and friendship.

Birdy is more than just a drink, it is a lifestyle. Birdy serves to fundamentally change the way you approach drinking—because life is a balancing act. 

Crafted from cherished moments of togetherness and creativity, Birdy embodies the essence of joy. Join us in savoring each sip, as we celebrate the simple pleasures of life and the beauty of shared experiences.

Our product is a testament to the cherished memories of Northern Michigan summers. An ode to the long days on the lake, damp beach towels on the porch and sand in your bed.

Raise a glass with us as we toast to living in the moment, the enchantment of Northern Michigan, and the enduring strength of family. With Birdy, every day is an opportunity to live today, and enjoy tomorrow.
