I don't like to give low reviews but these are unusual wines and not geared for wine lovers--even if what you love is usually under $10. Some had an "extract" aftertaste though the owner says it's just juice. Other couples came & left happily with their purchases though, so it's a matter of taste. Speaking of taste: four tastings are free, taste all for ten dollars. The owner expects you to see the sign & doesn't tell you this until he's given you four free tastings...
Outside open seating for nice days--wine by the glass only, no bottles. Not much shade and very open to the road and fields. (Most bottles cost about $10-$14)
I was glad for other trip advisor reviews so had an idea of what to expect before I went.

Traveling on highway 41 we say a billboard and followed our instincts to a real nice little wine store.
Kerrigan Brothers Winery is a small Wisconsin winery that makes mostly fruit wines. They are located north of Appleton. From Highway 41 take highway 55 north about 3 minutes and you are there.
As you enter the store you will go through a room with many photos of the owner at various activities and events. He has become a bit of a celebrity with his cheese carving skills.
This winery has a free wine tasting counter. You can taste small samples of the wine before you make your purchase decision. They also have free popcorn to clean your pallet between samplings. They give you a sheet with their wines listed so you can note what you enjoy.
You can also tour the wine making process.
In addition to wine, they have a gift shop and a small selection of local cheeses. We purchased several bottles of wine and some seafood cheese spread.
We enjoyed our visit to Kerrigan Brothers Winery and plan on stopping again.

The wines were terrible. The Merlot was not a Merlot . Cabernet didn’t taste like a cab.
The Bloody Mary mix and old fashioned mix were the only things I liked

Bit of a tourist trap - filled with wine motif paraphernalia. The wines selection is huge, from flavoured and fortified to local varietals. Lots of stuff for the average Joe. We got a bottle of the "Un-oaked" Chardonnay - cheap and ok on a hot day with snack foods. Stick to the other more formal wineries on the wine trail. There is a Cawtawba that is fairly unique - one of the only North American grape varietals which is quite interesting.

We had excellent service & a great tasting session at the Kerrigan Brothers Winery! There is a large variety of wine to taste. The gift shop is large & has a lot of items other wineries do not sell. There is a nice patio area to sit at and enjoy a glass of wine.

I was pleasantly surprised here. I usually look for wineries with some character, older buildings, vineyards, a museum, something. This one was a modern building alongside the highway, so we stopped on a whim. Troy Kerrigan was there (vacuuming the floor) and welcomed us in. It was such a pleasure meeting Troy and talking with him, he's a living encyclopedia of wine (and food) knowledge and was more than willing to share that with us. He also has a wonderful sense of humor and a very down to earth demeanor, not always found among vintners. We don't get to this area often, but I'm going to make a point of getting back to hopefully visit with Troy and grab a few more bottles to put in the cellar.

Nice facility with a very nice selection of wine and friendly staff that make your visit even better. An unexpected delight in this part of Wisconsin. And a nice selection of gifts in addition to the wines.
