Our approach to whiskey is to lay down many different recipes in different types and sizes of barrels using both new and used cooperage. We lean heavily on our brewing background to incorporate interesting and delicious specialty malts and grains traditionally reserved for beer. In addition to our whiskies, we also have rum, gin, agave, and apple brandy aging. Barrels are ready when they are ready, and taste and aroma dictate bottlings, not age. You can look forward to small releases of various aged spirits throughout the year.
