Frequently Asked Questions
When will you have the space completed and open for bigger events?
While our amazing Distiller's Ally space is under construction (Summer 2024), we will have the option for a tented event that can accommodate up to 100 people, on our North Patio with all of the amenities to create a memorable event for you and your guests.
Distiller's Alley - North Patio - coming fall 2024
South Patio - coming summer 2024
Distillery - open and ready to book and can be combined with our other spaces to meet your needs
Can you help me coordinate my event?
Absolutely! We have a hand-selected list of award-winning, industry-leading vendors, from photographers to DJs/live bands to florists to bakeries with scrumptious desserts, that we are happy to share to help you plan your picture-perfect event!
Will the store, restaurant, and bar remain open during my event?
The store, main tasting bar and some indoor seating will remain open to walk-in guests. If you are interested in booking the Distillery for a private function, please contact us about availability.
Which options are covered in case of rain?
Distiller's Alley is fully covered with open sides (tented for summer 2024). The Distillery is fully indoors. The South Patio has sun shades but does not provide full rain coverage.

All food and beverages, with the exception of your cake/desserts, are provided through Full Throttle.
