The amazing cocktails are expertly assembled. Don't forget to try the pickle juice shooter! Have fun with it. The distillery has tours and given with knowledge and passion. You can sit along the river in the back and watch the water as you sip. Of course, all of their distilled bottles are great for sipping. My all time fave is the Rye i. an Old Fashioned! One of my favorites at Three Blacksmith's restaurant using the Copper Fox Rye.

It was a chilly day and we followed the instructions to ring the bell when we were outside. Shout out to the folks here who provide the cute cat with a heated blanket to lay on during cold weather. Members of the staff quickly came by to let us in and we walked into a empty sitting area. To be fair, it was around 3:00pm on a Wednesday. The vibe inside is eclectic, homey, and comfortable. We grabbed a seat at a table near the fire. We had time to review menu. I picked a classic Whiskey Sour and my Mom got one of their warm whiskey cocktails. Both of us really enjoyed ours. We sipped and savored them and just enjoyed a bit of a respite from our road trip. We both got a bottle of their whiskey to take home with us. These aren't your standard whiskeys and they are definitely more expensive than what you'd probably get in the liquor store. We've been enjoying our purchases at home since our visit. Copper Fox is a nice stop and I'd recommend it to folks wanting a break and a beverage.

We visited for Father's Day, and everything was amazing!…read more We started with the buffalo chicken chili dip. I expected it to be served hot, but it came out cold--still delicious, though. We also ordered the giant pretzel, which was really good. We tried a variety of drinks before taking the tour, which costs $10. I highly recommend booking it online ahead of time. Our tour guide was fantastic--very knowledgeable and engaging. The tour lasted a little over an hour, but if you need to leave early, you're free to do so. After the tour, everyone in your group receives a tasting, and the $10 tour fee can be applied toward the purchase of a bottle, which we ended up doing. Pho on Wheels was there as well, and it was amazing. We'll definitely be back! They have a few chairs under the cover outside, but I would definitely recommend bringing your own or a blanket to sit on. They have live music, which was amazing, not too loud.

What a great time. I visited Song Dog for the first time last week. Everyone was so inviting and…read morenice. As soon as I walked in I was greeted by the bartenders who immediately fell in love in with my dog lol. Since I was meeting one of my friends I decided to sit at the bar which was cool. I was able to get acquainted with the bartenders who shared some history of the distillery and gave great suggestions for food and specialty cocktails. I ordered the Song dog old fashioned first. It was delicious. It was a little on the sweet side but still had the edge of an old fashioned. Next, I ordered the Penicillin cocktail which was very flavorful with honey, lemon, and bourbon. My friend ordered the Hibiscus highball which he really enjoyed. He mentioned that it was on the sweeter side but was still strong and enjoyable. The ambiance was really nice. Song dog is located in the middle of farm land so they have plenty of space on the grounds. They have outdoor seating as well as fire pits which is always a good time. Inside they have bar seating as well as tables. Sometimes they have food trucks come by which is always nice however, they do sale snacks as well. They are very dog friendly too (if you couldn't tell by the name LOL). They gave my dog water and were very accommodating to any need that he may have had. Overall, it was a great time. I will be back soon!

I was last here almost 9 years ago. Oh boy, how different it is!…read more I came expecting a relatively small scale operation. So you can imagine my surprise when I saw a huge building with their branding. The interior is spacious, with multiple tables for tastings, each with its own bartender. There are far more options to taste than you can try in one sitting, but your server will help you narrow it down to 4. I liked to loved everything I had. They even had some weird options that I was tempted to try but I went for a more traditional flight (although I definitely want to return for the coffee whisky). The only option I wasn't in love with was the smokehouse, but that's just a personal preference. After my tasting I learned they were doing some kind of slushys as well, so I got one of those. I thought it was a very fun, informative experience. I'll also have to try the "Proof" kitchen as well.

One of the workers was so sweet and brought us a table and some cups of water as well. Just a really welcoming place with some history. When you're in Culpeper make sure you make this a stop.
