Located just 5 miles north of Interstate 80, Lexington exit, you will be transported to the heart of Nebraska wine country. Mac's Creek, named for the McFarland family and the beautiful Spring Creek running through the property, produces incredible regional wines and great craft brews! "The Creek" is located at the junction where the Oregon and Mormon Trails converge and the famous Lincoln Highway carried passengers across the United States. Come taste the "Good Life" and enjoy our handcrafted family wines. Open Daily, year round.
We travel by RV and Harvest Host are businesses and attractions offering RV'rs free overnight parking. This was a really great stop. First the grounds are very nice and welcoming. The tasting room has a large open patio looking at the vines. PALE ALE for beer and Mac's Lantern Semi dry Rose were our favorites. Nicely done snacks accompanied tasting. They are doing docial distancing precautions well. The wines came across very well with distinct flavor but not overdone. Well nuanced. Close to what I would expect in Sonoma. Unfortunately out of some reds which are more of what I prefer. The beers also ranked up there and we took home a growler of IPA (husband's a big IPA connoiseur and it passed his analysis... no small feat!) Kudos to staff who are adjusting well to new health precautions.

What started out as a fascination with old journals from a Great Uncle, who operated a still on the Niobrara River in prohibition era has now become a father-son operation that's proud of the slow process it uses to make a high-quality whiskey. Lazy RW featured three products, Straight Corn Whiskey, Cinnamon Flavor Whiskey, and Lemon Flavored Whiskey. We are a small distillery with big standards.

In the days before kegs & bottles were available, the only way to get beer was to take a bucket to the local brewery, fill it up & lug it back home. We admire the work it took to get a beer. Our name pays homage to our beginnings the original Lucky BucketLucky Bucket is a distinctive new brewery that's as big on taste as it is in range.
