The Barrel Factory

Reviewed By dbyte77 - Indianapolis, United States

there's a lot going on in the old ward. Now we have the flag ship originators in the Barrel Factory which is being joined by other enterprises. Bur don't forget the trailblazers. I was blown away on other trips by this venue and they keep producing - adding a great brewery (Pressure Drop), Kombucha and Winery/Cidery. But the original distillery has been awarded medals for the whiskeys and who wouldn't doubt that award.

Lakeward Spirits

Lakeward Spirits is a family-owned distillery which crafts spirits from locally-sourced ingredients. We offer tours of our distillery which is located in a beautifully-restored 1903-built former barrel factory. Our tasting room allows visitors to sample our spirits on their own or in cocktails which use house-made mixers and locally-brewed kombucha. Also located in the same building are Elevator Alley Kayak and Snowy Owl Kombucha.

We were looking for breweries to check out, and we saw that pressure drop brewing was located here. Did not realize that they shared a space and bar with Lakeward Spirits! How cool. We had a bit of beer and some of the liquor - everything was great! Ended up leaving with a 6-pack of our favorite beer and 3 bottles of liquor to take home. We also had really great service from the bartender and found the space very cool. Highly recommend you check this spot out!
