The inside space is small but inviting and they have outdoor seating for nice days. I tried the Cucumber Basil Gimlet and it was so refreshing. Definitely the best cucumber cocktail I've ever tried and it really sold me on their summer gin! She got the Winter King which was also tasty and featured their winter gin. You can buy the bottles to go and they would make great gifts. The Jalapeño Pants was a really tasty spicy cocktail with a flavorful tahin/salt rim and featuring their fall gin. The bartenders were friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled at making their craft cocktails.

Or be here at a normal time for normal reasons, haha. Cocktails are always decent, though maybe a bit overwrought and on the sweet side. Can't say I can always taste all the ingredients they put in. Sometimes simple can be best. The N/A watermelon spritz I had didn't have much flavor. Could have used less spritz, I guess. Today specifically we came for the Tacos El Panda truck; they have great birria and we fancied a cocktail as well. In the past we also enjoyed the Juicy Oyster truck.

Go for the Bloody Mary, stay for the poutine. I had read about River Raisin Distillery on yelp and…read moresurprised my husband with a visit here during his birthday week. They distill several spirits and sell them by the bottle for purchase. They ONLY serve the Bloody Mary's on Sunday. It is a welcoming place with staff that enjoys what they do.

If you're lucky enough to get a few minutes to chat with him, you'll see exactly what I mean. The whisky is outstanding and must be tried. This distillery is a combination of Ernie and Mark hard work and dedication as well as Ernie personally lobbying the State of Ohio to allow these products to flow. I can't say enough good about this place and the great Americans running it.

While we were there, a family pulled in asking for help. Their boat trailer had somehow detached from their vehicle and was laying, tilted forward on the pavement.

In fact, after my visit, I think I actually appreciate its rough appearance. As soon as I walked in, I felt like I was entering "the real deal" of craft; nothing fancy - just quality. In addition to his beers, he also makes his own spirits and the whiskey was absolutely phenomenal. I'm not a huge whiskey guy so I'm sure a "snobby" person may have a different opinion but it's most definitely worth a shot during your visit. The owner, who was working behind the bar, was extremely personable and seemed to make quick friends with every guest that came in. You could tell he takes a lot of pride in his craft. I will be back and will make sure I bring others with me to experience this hidden gem.

Highly recommend swinging for a drink if your in the area!

Our waitress was very friendly and patient as we sipped and then decided on drinks. For dessert I wandered into the gift shop where you can get tastings before you buy a bottle also. Needless to say Doris was excellent also. She even brought samples of the Vanilla Almond Biscotti out for us at the table. Talk about service.
