We had walked the bridge over the Colorado River right after sunset, spotted it from the bridge, and were drawn to it because of the live music. We ending up really having a wonderful evening. The atmosphere is relaxing with rocking chairs and the quaintness of the area. The staff was great with recommendations and made us feel like we were guests at their home. The entire rustic and charming setting on the edge of downtown along the river gives you a feeling that you have escaped the business of life and can really relax. read more

Awesome bloody Mary's! Hoping they open more days and add back a regular music lineup. The back area is comfortable and open. Great place to kickoff a nice night. read more

Okay, I may be bias but I also don't review a place if I don't like it. Copper shot is so fun! First let's talk booze. The drinks are phenomenal. I typically don't like mixed drinks they tend to be too sweet or fruity pa tooty. I like bourbon and soda on ice. I tried two of their mixed cocktails. One was a take on a street car and the other prickly pear lemonade. They were just boozey enough and had a bit of tart to go with the sweet! I really liked them. The band was getting ready to play in front of the still house. There is cornhole, jenga, fire pits 2 tops, bar seating, picnic tables and a unique gorgeous interior. Wood, copper, and stainless it's really a place to see. If you live here be regular you won't regret it. The employees are an excellent reflection of the owners. Genuine and kind! Cheers!!! read more

Copper Shot Distillery - Distilleries Near Me - Bastrop, Texas

We absolutely love going to Copper Shot because of their incredible dog-friendly atmosphere and drink selection! I was hesitant to try this place at first because I'm not a whiskey fan, but they have so many varieties and drinks that I easily found some whiskey drinks that I sincerely loved. I especially enjoyed the prickly pear Arnold Palmer, apple pie whiskey, and "peach shot". It was also great to have a dog-friendly environment so that we could bring our puppy. There was plenty of outdoor seating, plus a little courtyard with doggie pickup bags super close by. We will always come to places where our pups can join us, too! The bartender was very friendly and made fantastic drink recommendations for the whiskey fans and the not whiskey fans. read more

Love the new location but miss the view. Nice stage. Great drinks. Friendly people. Love sitting in the rockers listening to Djester Brother play rock and roll covers from Jimi Hendrix, Doors, Prince, Black Sabbath etc. They are young and local and amazing. read more

This guy is the best. Amazing liquors. Amazing drinks. That's all. Cool atmosphere. Intriguing live music. You will not be disappointed. Make sure you try The Godfather and the coffee martini. read more

Had a great experience here and would definitely recommend if you're visiting Bastrop. It has cute small-town atmosphere and had live music while I was there. They even gave us a little tour of where they distill the liquor. Highly recommend their Apple pie moonshine mule or whiskey strawberry daiquiri. read more

We didn't get a chance to do the tour, but the lady at the bar was very knowledgeable and let us know a lot of cool tidbits about the place. My wife and I got two of the 2 infusion, 2 liquors flights. Lots of different infusion flavors to choose from, so to each his own. Be careful though, the infusions may taste like a harmless fruity drink, but that's how you wind up waking up on the floor, the alcohol is definitely in there. They are dog friendly and have indoor/outdoor seating. We sat outside and thoroughly enjoyed the rocking chairs while watching some Chive.TV while we sipped. We went on a Sunday, and the special for that day was Bloody Mary's. A nice little touch was that the ingredients that you could choose from to garnish your bloody Mary with came from the nice lady. I think if I had to pick a favorite, it would be the Honey Whiskey, not to be confused with the Honey Shine. read more

Thrilled we decided to stop at a Copper Shot during our road trip! The bartender was helpful and kind and The owner/distiller, Steve, was great to chat with and hear the history behind the property and his passion! He's got an amazing variety of spirits that he creates himself. "The Godfather" drink was perfect for the weather that day (cool and overcast) and we ended up purchasing a bottle of his Pecan Shine Whiskey. Outdoor atmosphere reminds you of a brewery with bar games, plenty of places to sit and enjoy your drink and feel like a regular. We hope to be back soon! read more

Stopped here over spring break since I love whiskey (they do vodka and infusions too). I went with a whiskey flight and they let me pick the four I wanted to try. We went out on this lovely open air patio to sit a spell and try my shots. They are new and still getting their footing but found 2 decent ones worth buying. bar tender was very nice and helpful. read more

What a wonderful spot to sip, kick back, and enjoy that beautiful TX scenery. Bastrop is the perfect example of a small TX town with all heart. And this place is my fave spot in town. If you're lucky, you'll end up here on a night when all the locals come down with their instruments for a jam session. It's magic. Grab a rocking chair and talk about the 'good ol days'. The deck is the perfect viewing spot for that gorgeous TX sunset read more

Copper Shot Distillery - Cigars and whiskey - Distilleries Near Me - Bastrop, Texas

The coolest shot options and I'm not a shot or liqueur person at all! Great experience all the way around. Highly recommend!

Such a great place to stumble upon. I love the ambiance and the outside area. Listened to a really good band and had unique, very tasteful drinks! Will definitely be going back regularly! read more

I came there last week and this time I wanted to try the drink with amaretto. But It was toooo sweet, so I asked the lady if I can choose something else because I didn't like the taste. She took my glass, threw away the "precious" liquid and gave me a regular Honey shine. I thought she won't charge me for the new drink or at least a 50/50, but no. I paid the full price for 2 drinks . If I knew that I would have given my first drink to a friend. read more

This is a sweet spot. The couple who owns the place is happy to show you their still while you sip their blends of shine. We loved the apple pie. Did shopping in their cute little shop while our kids played checkers on the balcony. read more

Copper Shot Distillery - Distilleries Near Me - Bastrop, Texas

Absolute best drinks around!! I love to bring my out of town guests. They are always wow-ed!!

We stopped by on a short visit to the area, and we enjoyed it thoroughly. At copper shot we ordered a flight and got the barrel aged whiskey, the rapid aged whiskey, Texas pecan shine, and honey shine. Then we each got a drink, mine was the prickly pear Arnold Palmer, and his was the Moscow mule with shine. Everything tasted really good. It's cool to be able to see their process and do a bit of sampling. The lovely lady behind the bar answered all of our questions and was super pleasant to talk to. Over all, I absolutely recommend stopping by here if you're in the area. Try the honey shine for sure, it's so sweet and good. read more

Perfect place to relax and enjoy locally made, on site moonshine. Drinks are amazingly delicious! Service is spectacular! The vibes of the entire establishment are on point! read more

Ordered a flight of whiskeys from a very friendly bar keeper and took an Uber back to the hotel. Great atmosphere and I really enjoyed the whiskeys. read more

Love the atmosphere! They make a great salty dog!

We went to Copper Shot a year ago while visiting family in Bastrop, and were back there again this week. I am not a fan of white dog/white lightning/unaged whiskey, so I won't speak to that, other than to say that Copper Shot makes some very good bloody Mary's with their white lightning. I am a whiskey collector, so I have tasted well over a hundred bourbons and other whiskeys. Copper Shot's aged whiskey is one of my favorites. I like it as well as Garrison Brothers Balmorhea, which has a similar taste profile in my opinion. The Copper Shot is far less expensive. Copper Shot has a rapid aged whiskey too, but I much prefer the regular barrel aged stuff. Friendly bartender and distiller/owner. I don't smoke, but don't skip their cigar lounge. There are some special Copper Shot whiskeys in there that aren't available at the main bar. I am usually disappointed with the products of small craft distilleries, but this one is an exception. read more

The service here was great! The booze was not so shabby either. We had our server choose our flight & she did an amazing job. Everything was really good. The seating out back was nice & the live music was a nice touch. read more

Live music sometimes but always a great time. Maybe not the most expansive menu for food or drinks but everything is great and hey, you don't go to a distillery to play ping pong and eat s'mores. It is what it is and that's why we go and enjoy it. Don't cry if this isn't the IPA fruity beer place you want to visit wearing your high water tight pants showing off your coloredy socks and sporting your manicured beard you finally grew. Great place for a stiff drink and some relax time. read more

Great spirits with cool atmosphere. We enjoyed the infusions. Very reasonably priced too.

Super rude... been a repeat customer for years and always stop between trips to Austin to buy a couple bottles. Dropped in on Labor Day to do the same, was walking up to the door with my family and told they were closing early... ok, fine. Turned around but then thought well I am not staying so maybe they will sell me a bottle. Literally in those 30 seconds to turn around to ask they locked the door, looked at me and ignored me. Good job- I'll skip the Bastrop detour for now on. read more

Friendly, knowledgeable bartender. The Pecan shine and Honeyshine are very tasty. Glad we stopped in!

I have to say that their customer service is amazing. The alcohol is superb and the choices are wide. The atmosphere is exceptional. We could enjoy our dogs here! We will definitely be coming back! read more

This was really hyped up to be a great tour...guess people need to get out more. A few flavors of moonshine may be a big deal in a little town like Bastrop, but I've had much better. The little boys working behind the bar didn't have any suggestions when I asked for them and the owners are really full of themselves. Especially the lady with the little teeth. I wouldn't bother stopping again unless they got more flavors or at least some bartenders that can recommend a good drink. read more

What a great place to hang out. Great view of the Colorado River. Sit on the rocking chairs on the back porch & enjoy some great 'shine. All the 'shine is great, but I highly recommend the Apple Pie. LOVE THIS PLACE!! If you're in Bastrop & you don't stop here, extend your arm & slap yourself in the face! 'nuff said. read more
