Went on a group tour this weekend with four others (group reservations allow up to six people), and it was an incredible experience. I would absolutely recommend it! What really stood out was how they went above and beyond for the birthday girl in our group. She was able to choose a different tour drink than the rest of us, and they wrote "Happy Birthday" on both her whiskey flight paddle and the bag holding her whiskey glasses, personalized with her name. They truly made her feel special and celebrated. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable. I enjoyed learning about the history behind the name, the Mavericks, and the location itself. The Old Fashioned was excellent, and the whiskey flight was a great way to sample their offerings. The tour lasted about an hour, and afterward we were able to relax and spend some time at the bar. Overall, a fantastic experience from start to finish. Highly recommend! read more

While in San Antonio for the weekend, my wife and I along with a girl friend stopped into Maverick Whisky Distillery for a tour and to try out what they had to offer. The tour was very interesting and really enjoyed learning the history of the Distillery. We then sat to try out some Gin, rum, vodka, whisky and bourbon. All were excellent and very unique in taste. All three of us had a great time and enjoyed tasting what they had to offer. We enjoyed it so much we ended up bringing home so rum, gin and a little whiskey. Next time we are in San Antonio area, we will definitely be stopping back in to Maverick and so what else they have to offer. read more

Finally got a chance to drop in to try Maverick Whiskey. We went to the upstairs bar, which is small but cozy, and I ordered Homestead Old Fashioned with their Rye whiskey. The drink was well made and their Rye had a nice kick and wasn't overly priced at $13 for a house made whiskey. We had tickets to a show and couldn't stay longer but look forward to coming back and trying the food and other spirits. read more

This distillery visit was long overdue. My husband and I visited the upstairs bar on an early Friday evening. They did an excellent job renovating an old bank into a distillery. I wanted to try a variety of spirits, so I did the whiskey and white tasting (rum, gin, vodka, bourbon). The gin was my favorite, it had a slightly sweet, yet earthy taste with a touch of citrus. We were told the gin is infused with pecan, very unique. Next, I had a rye old fashioned while my husband enjoyed his beer and rye whiskey (boilermaker). Mike took great care of us and gave us a little tour of the upstairs bar area. The prices are reasonable for the great quality of the spirits. We will be back to purchase some bottles and try other cocktails. read more

We did the tour. Amazing! Our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. The bourbon was great! The only one I didn't really like was the rye. The old bank the distillery is in has been redone very well. This was easily the cleanest working distillery I have ever been in. Great job team Maverick!! read more

This was such a great experience! Although we came to go upstairs to the bar we were able to order drinks from the bar downstairs while watching football and playing games (which they had already on the tables). Customer service was great, and the bartender was fantastic! We did not order any food, but the experience alone was great! You can also take a tour and they will discuss the whiskey made there. We highly recommend and will be back for sure. read more

SAN ANTONIO, TX: you know we are always thirsty and we found another distillery to rehydrate. Maverick Distilling is located in a historic building and former bank and they serve up whiskey, bourbon, gin, and tequila! They even make their own beer! They have it all! We spent time in the main level distiller's lounge that offered an older ambiance and seating. Leashed dogs are allowed inside. Bring your own food and pair with a cocktail! read more

Maverick Distilling - Distilleries Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Drinks were great! Staff is very knowledgeable on the process on how they make the whiskey. Nice place to walk in for a drink.

Let's begin with the structure, this distillery is located in an old bank building making it a unique and beautiful backdrop to enjoy a drink. They have an extensive selection of house spirits. I had their old fashioned and was given my choice of what type of wood to smoke it with (quite a treat). My wife enjoyed the bees knees gin drink, which was delightful. Not too sweet and not boozy. If you're in the area, drop in for at least a drink. If it's not busy you may even get a history lesson from the bartender (who was great!). I'd also recommend picking up a bottle of their whiskey or gin as a gift. Don't pass this place up! Ps. They also have their own beers, but was not a big fan, primarily because it wasn't served cold. read more

Our bartender, Jason Villegas, was magnificent. Knowledgeable.. Attentive. Respectful. Very good spirits as well as cocktails. Recommend this place very strongly. It gives tours as well as cocktail service in a very well curated western style location in downtown San Antonio. Nearby parking is available. Alejandro Velez read more

Cool place. The lady downstairs said cocktails were upstairs, so up the elevator we went. It was happy hour but it was quiet. Asked the bartender a question about the menu and he assumed a different t drink, so I clarified. Gave me a vague answer so I based me decision on trying something new and it was not great but I drank it all because it was expensive, they don't actually partake in happy hour. read more

I took my husband here for a private tour of the distillery for his birthday and it was well worth it! Our tour guide was fun and informative. We even got to see the barrels I the basement. At the end of our tour we got to try several whiskeys and went home with a cute engraved glass. The experience was so cool and entertaining that I would make this a regular place to drink and hang out. read more

Multi floor establishment with different things intended for each. Stayed on the first floor and service was awesome. Had a few flights and bought a bottle. Interesting diversity of whiskey. Leashed behaved dogs indoors on 1st floor were ok. read more

You can go on a tour or stop by for drinks. I didn't do the tour but still thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Went upstairs to their bar which was well ventilated with AC. There are some cute photo ops. Everybody working here was kind. read more

Overall good. Food was flavorful and the charcuterie board was quite good. Liked that it was not TOO fancy.... Good cheeses and meats, and fruit and pickled items were good! I liked my chicken and my wife enjoyed the salmon. Good veggies accompanied... The flight was also good. The reserve whiskey was good as was the triticale.... Never had that before. Waitress described it as a "happy accident". Tequila and vodka were just OK... All in all this is a very enjoyable experience and I can see myself coming back again. I will say the one thing that they could do a better job at is coming up with some sort of parking solution.... That was pretty awful... Other than that all good. The waitress was good but not great- I will also say that the music in here was very "vampire nightclub" and it was a shame that I was not drinking more and dancing.... Lol! Seems like it will be better when more people are here (we were here a little early). read more

What a lovely place to stop in and get a drink. I found this place on a google search. Whenever I'm going to a new city I look up wineries or tasting rooms, distilleries, and breweries because priorities. This place is a quick jaunt from The Alamo so it was my first stop after touring the historic site. The bartenders are really friendly and the spirits themselves are lively and interesting. I was able to partake in happy hour which includes $10 flights and $8 crafted cocktails. If you're a whiskey lover like me you won't be disappointed. The drink menu is really really imaginative; everything is well balanced and complimentary to the spirit. I ended up ordering the seasonal flight and something that was essentially a reposado old fashioned. I would come here often if I lived in the city and I'll definitely be stopping in on my next visit to San Antonio. read more

While furloughed during the summer of 2020 I would walk around the downtown area of San Antonio. I had passed Maverick Whiskey multiple times when they were only selling hand sanitizer. The place looked cool. I was downtown for The Monkees show. I wanted to stop by for a drink. The bartenders were very friendly and talented. They had a few unique drink options. The got one of both old fashioned cocktails they had on their drink menu. They were both great. The guys to the right of me were raving about the food especially the fries. I had to order the fries and they were $11. They had a nice cheese sauce,bacon and a runny egg on top. The fries were super tasty. I will recommend them to everyone. I am looking forward to trying more menu items in the future. I will definitely be back. read more

I am(was) a regular at this establishment, but I will no longer have this as my go to location. The new manager Ralph kicked us out 3 minutes early (8:57pm) saying "we're closed" just after I asked the bartender if we needed to head out and she said we were fine. The bartender named Jessica was excellent. She was extremely knowledgeable of the spirits and was very joyful. The host Serena was excellent as well. Walking in I felt very welcomed and any questions I had they were able to answer. As previously stated, the manager kicking us out early was unacceptable and very rude. read more

The facility is clean! The employees are badass! The drinks are delish! Jess was amazing! Very welcoming and social! They are knowledgeable in their drink game! We will definitely return!! Thank y'all for the fun time! read more

We celebrated a birthday here with dinner and drinks. We reserved a table and were seated immediately when we arrived. The dining area is upstairs. It's small, but the tables are spaced nicely. It wasn't too busy when we went. We had tastings for their spirits and beer. Both excellent. $10 spirit flights are the way to go. We did try cocktails. Their old fashioned was on point. I love their little extras like the ice cube with their symbol. Food was good too. We shared a pretzel, fried goat cheese, deviled eggs and cauliflower. For my main meal I had the smoked salmon nachos. They were delicious. The majority of the table got the bone in rib eye and were all happy with it. Staff was friendly. They don't have parking, but you can find nearby parking garages. read more

Don't freak out. It's only 4 stars because I didn't have the time or chance to really explore this distillery. But the staff was super bubbly when we walked in and gave us their attention immediately. They gave us a quick background on the distillery and escorted us upstairs to the bar/tasting room. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a smoked bourbon old fashioned and a bourbon straight. We also had some fries, wings, and the charcuterie plate. I'd probably skip on the charcuterie plate next time unless you really need some quick bar snack bites. The wings were amazing though. read more

I tried such perfectly cooked steak here and a delicious Old-fashioned. I will definitely return for their whiskey flight, which is an amazing deal. The staff is amazing! I forgot my debit card and they had already turned it in downstairs with the hostess, before I even made it back. I will most definitely be back. read more

You come in and wait to get upstairs. Downstairs you can still do tastings though. You take the elevator to the 2nd floor and have at it. We sat at the bar and ended up all getting the same thing. Everybody there was nice and friendly because they explained exactly what was on the menu so that we knew what we were getting before we ordered. They were very explicit on what the things were and how they were made and I really appreciate the explanations. It was really good customer service because of that. It happened to me right next door to our hotel so that worked out pretty well. It was definitely in the middle of downtown so it was a really good area and a really good place for it to be. read more

Great place- had no idea there was even a distillery smack dab in the middle of downtown until my husband pointed it out. Great service, fabulous cocktails (and they have beer)!

Our first visit to Maverick Whiskey was great. The bartender was very knowledgeable about their whiskey and beer and skilled in making craft drinks.

Went here for drinks and the tour and had an awesome time. Their craft cocktails are fantastic. We tried all their in house hooch on the tour and it was all great the whiskey is very flavorful with just a little burn. The white rum was smooth as hell. This isn't an especially cheap place for drinks and they are made to order so not super fast but it was a special occasion and I wasn't looking for frosty marg at chili's. The tour was super fun. They tell you from the get go it is more about the history of Sam Maverick than the process of making whiskey and I love Texas history so it was a lot of fun. Pay attention because the more you remember the bigger the tasting samples! read more

Stopped by and had an amazing experience! Walked in right when they opened and was treated to friendly staff who seemed genuinely excited to have me there. The spirit tasting was great and received an amazing tour of the facility. Picked up a couple bottles to take home and share with friends. Would highly recommend a visit to Mavericks when you are visiting. Also had a rye old fashioned and it tasted great. read more

Great Folks and great location. Lots of history and our host/distillery tour person, Carlos was excellent. Took us through the history of the name, the building, the distillery process. He answered any questions on the product, was refreshing blunt when describing certain aspects of the process and tasting experiences. The history of the name , family , building made it very enjoyable and sampling was done upstairs in a very comfortable and modern bar/speakeasy. Jason our mixologist made us a few amazing old fashions using the Double oak 114 proof which were amazing. Enjoyed a nice pour on a number of rock only Burbon's. The wheat was definitely my favorite. Just the two of us took the tour but Carlos was attentive and answered all questions. Highly recommend next time you're in the area to stop by and say hello. Even better get some knowledge and enjoy an interesting and fun hour spent learning some of the history of the Maverick namesake, the historic building the distillery is housed in as well as the great product they create from scratch on site. read more

We were in San Antonio for 3 days and came here twice. There are a ton of other options, but I had to come back. The first time we stopped for a cocktail and flight. The Yule cocktail was unbelievable. Just watching them make it was entertainment, very talented. The second time we ate. I had the yummy burger and my husband had a pasta dish with chicken. Phenomenal! We had another flight and I had the campfire cocktail. Again, they show their talent and prepare right in front of you. This is a must stop if you're in San Antonio. read more

OMG. This needs to be the go to place if you are in San Antonio. Amazing food, outstanding cocktails, and out of ordinary service. I had a great gin infused cocktail. Try the Special Accommodations. They also have a great selection of whiskey, as well as Craft beers. Enjoy a cocktail then indulge into some outstanding food. We tried a number of items on the menu and were amazed at the flavors. The Chief puts his heart into every entree. Our favorites: All of them, but in order would be 1. Texas Heritage Bone Marrow 2.Quail and Biscuits 3.Pork Cheek Porchetta 4. Wild Boar Ragu and Dumplings If you around the Alamo, this is definitely a resturant to stop by So one needs to call Guy Fiere about this place. read more
