Bought a Groupon and couldn’t be happier with our visit and tour. Langston was a great tour guide and very informative. I loved seeing how everything comes together and Langston had an answer for every question. Great deal on Groupon if it’s still available.

I give this place five stars because of it's, I don't know how to say it, it's kind of a unique small little place with some outdoor sitting and indoor sitting separated by a garage door. This place is a Distillery so I think they...Read More

But what do I know there could be times of the day this place really is hopping but it's a great place to try out and so far parking has been easy for meAs I said in the description is kind of an outdoor indoor seating and it's wide open as far as I think you can see in the picture just come right out of the parking lot right into the outdoor seating and you can roll right through the garage door that separates into the indoor seating if you care to.

Nice place for some cocktails created with locally distilled whiskey and other spirits. If you try something you like they have bottles for sale as well. Recommend the Manhattan.

The tour was quite in-depth, which we enjoyed. They made time for us to do it even though we were the only ones interested. They make all their own bitters on site we learned. Bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. Drinks are strong, which is...Read More

4 stars only because the menu is small, two types of charcuterie boards and some other small plates. Service is always pleasant and smiley. This place is an old M-DOT building or something like that. It is a work in progress, but the cocktails are...Read More

Good atmosphere and a great place for cocktails with a few friends. Nice that you can also pick up bottles of their spirits that aren't available in stores. A little more pricey than some places, but well worth it.
