Deerhammer Distillery

At Deerhammer, our distilling is steeped in whiskey tradition, but our methods are infused with curiosity and creativity. From our cornerstone single malt to our forthcoming bourbon, rye and limited run single barrel spirits, we're redefining the flavor-and future-of independent American whiskey. Stop by for a whiskey tasting... craft cocktail... or a bite to eat from our new menu featuring some seriously highfalutin brats, all beef franks, chili, and more!

Whiskey fans, stop by the Deer Hammer for a stiff drink and a cozy quaint setting. If you don’t love Whiskey this is the place to change your mind! They have everything from whiskey flights and straight up pours to more fruity drinks like their Margarito or the Green Grind. Each cocktail is perfectly crafted by their friendly staff! Fair prices, and a great atmosphere that is dog friendly! In the summer they have an amazing outdoor patio with a food truck which makes for a lovely relaxing afternoon. The Deer Hammer really is a must see in downtown BV!

Wood's High Mountain Distillery

Wood's High Mountain Distillery was born on a raft trip in the Grand Canyon over 20 years ago. While sipping whiskey in one of the most inspiring places on earth, PT Wood decided to pursue the dream of handcrafting his own spirits in downtown Salida. The dream soon became reality and PT and his brother, Lee partnered together to make it happen. We found our current home and after major renovations, installed “Ashley” our antique 1880s era German copper pot still. Wood’s launched November 13, 2012. In 2018, Ashley was given some much-needed help with the addition of two new 2400-liter stills and a 20-plate column. Currently, the distillery produces American Malt Whiskeys, Alpine Rye Whiskey, three styles of gin, Elderflower Liqueur, and Colorado Potato Vodka along with other ongoing projects. The Tasting Room is open daily and tours are available by appointment. You can choose from product samplers, craft cocktails, bottle sales and Wood’s merchandise in a casual, fun environment.
