Nice place, the bartender was new, didn't know a lot about their offerings, but someone came in to help after a bit. They let me try several types of rum and such that they make on site. All were interesting, but there wasn't anything I was willing to buy a bottle of. Would not allow me to pay for my shots.

While the drinks are surprisingly affordable and mostly good, the place is badly understaffed and wait times are unacceptable considering how busy it was. Being able to buy bottles to take home is a plus, and most of them are worth the money, but hard to justify this over DTO next door. Your mileage may vary.

Drinks were good. Bartender was sweet but not confident in her mixology. Needed a barback and another bartender for sure!! It is a Saturday at 1:30. During the peak summer months. 2 cruise ships in port. Took over 30 minutes to get our drinks and there were 25-30 people that have come through the door standing around the bar. The lone poor bartender was overwhelmed with no help in site. Bathrooms were lacking in supplies. Sad! We won't be back any time soon.

Love that so many of us had the same experience here! The owner came by and explained his gins to us and how he gets the recipes for the recreation liqueurs including through the online Harvard library. So neat! All 3 gins were tasty too. Didn’t catch the bartender’s name but she was so kind to us and willing to learn too! We had a lovely little chat. Tried the vodka too and while vodka isn’t for me it was VERY smooth. Also the prices are CRAZY REASONABLE! I’d say it’s a must visit in Galveston interested in a cocktail!

The bartender was so sweet! She had an idea of what drink to make me when I told her my likes and dislikes. My Husband tried a sample of all the whiskeys that they made and was excited about a few of them. The owner went above and beyond when talking to us about his whiskeys. You could tell he takes great pride in his work. We wanted to buy a few bottles before we left but it was to late so we went back the next day. My husband was bummed they were sold out of the oat whiskey, but he bought his other favorites the red corn, and soft red wheat. This is definitely a must go to!

1st time to visit. Drinks and service were exceptional! We had our dog with us and they were very welcoming. The bartender even gave our pup his own bowl of water. Had no idea they actually distill all their own liquor.

This place was amazing. Ignore any bad reviews because those people are just looking for attention… my girlfriend and I have been here for hours and we have never felt so welcomed. I seriously recommend this place over any other places around here.

Very cute place but we waited for a very long time to order at the bar that we decided to leave. There were 3 other patrons at the bar that had full drinks and the bartender sat and stirred one drink the entire time while using vulgar language to the other patrons. The bartender made the comment “well excuse me” in a sarcastic tone when we decided to leave when she never acknowledged us while we waited at the bar.

Excellent drinks and amazing customer service. The owner was so nice and informative. He was clearly quite passionate and it showed in his craft. We brought a bottle of the spiced rum home and have loved it.

Awesome spot. We got to nerd out on rum and all sorts of distillations. Excellent cocktails too. We even left with a bottle of this rum. Super fun to see artisan distilling on the island and they're right next door to a brewery! How much more can you ask for???

Excellent, creative cocktail selection, interesting and fun distillations, chill vibe (it’s a cool place to hang and they even have board games!). Shoutout to Annie who’s an amazing Bartender/Cocktail Wrangler/80’s Indie Music Aficionado! This was our first time and we’ll be back!!

This place is such a gem! The drinks are some of the best I've ever had and they are extremely well priced. The staff are super friendly and so is the owner! They have games as well so it's just a super fun hang out spot that also won't break the bank :)

This is a great little, locally owned distillery. The owners are are very welcoming and ready to help you find the perfect drink. There’s a wide variety of flavors and alcohols. The distillery is very comfortable and homey, with games, tables and sitting areas. The walls are also decorated with beautiful, original art by one of the owners. Everything I sampled was delicious.

I came to check the distillery out and it was amazing. I got to meet the owner Tim he is a very friendly and knowledgeable Master distiller. The amaretto was smooth and delicious. Definitely come check the place out if you are in Galveston and grab a quick delicious drink.

Stopped in for a quick drink and ended up talking liquor and tasting a whole bunch of amazing stuff (even a french liqueur not manufactured regularly!!!). Great spot, 10/10 will visit when back in Galveston

Amazing drinks! I always come here on my trips to Galveston. The staff is amazing and they sell their bottles of liquor. They also have Juniper the cat. She patrols the area for mice and play time!

Great atmosphere and great spirits. The owners and staff are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about their product. The distillery is clean and comfortable. The decor is classy but not presumptuous. And the bar cat, Juniper, is a most gracious host!
