Wine Kits and Homebrew Supplies in Squamish
Squamish's Ferment-on-Premises and Homebrew Supply Shop
Squamish's ferment-on-premises destination for handcrafted wine. Choose from a wide selection of premium wine kits, and we'll guide you through every step—from grape to glass. You start the batch, we handle the heavy lifting, and you walk away with bottles you're proud to pour.
What is U-Ferment?
U-Ferment (also called U-Vin or U-Brew) lets you make wine on our premises using professional equipment and our expertise. It's legal, it's affordable, and the results rival what you'd find on any store shelf. You pick a kit, start fermentation with us, and return in a few weeks to bottle your finished wine—approximately ~29 bottles (23 litres) per batch, no experience needed. Because you make it yourself on our premises, your batch is not subject to liquor taxes.
How It Works
Making your own wine in Squamish takes four steps. Wine kits start at $190 and yield 28–30 bottles; cider kits start at $125.

Why Make Your Own Wine?
Making your own wine in Squamish is a chance to walk away with bottles you made yourself. Each batch yields 28–30 bottles, ready for custom labels with your photo, a wedding date, or whatever fits the occasion. Wine kits start at $190 and cider kits from $125. Because U-Vin Squamish batches are made on-premises for personal use, they aren't subject to liquor taxes. Customers bottle for weddings, engagement parties, retirement gifts, and housewarmings—anytime a store-bought bottle doesn't quite fit the moment.
