Frey Ranch Distillery

Reviewed By BarryC496

Most Nevadans don’t spend time in Fallon. It’s on the road between Reno and Las Vegas, but is a treasure for a couple of reasons: Hearts of Gold cantaloupes (available around Labor Day) and Frey Ranch Distillery. I had learned about the Distillery in November 2016, at a charity food and beverage show in Reno, received a generous offer from Russ (distiller) to come and visit when my travels between Reno and Las Vegas brought me by the Ranch, and finally made the trip from Reno to Fallon to take the tour and sample crafted beverages on 9/30. From the moment we arrived, Andy (distiller) treated us like we were his lost family members, proudly showing us the distilling equipment, sage bushes out front used to make their special Nevada gin, the barrel house where some different gin is barrel finished and where future releases of their estate bourbon is now aging. He gave us a walking tour of the operation, explaining sourcing of grains and natural flavoring, fate of spent grains/mash, and their “green approach.” This wasn’t a big factory tour, but a truly insiders experience for just 2 of us, alone with Andy. After learning about the production of their unique spirits we were invited to sample estate wines (2 whites and 1 red) and spirits (vodka, 2 gins, brandy and absinthe). Our hostess, Ashley (Ashley and her husband operate the ranch and live in the “big house”) explained each beverage we sampled, and offered tasting notes. She gave us an overview of future plans and new products becoming available in the coming year. Because I mentioned that I knew they made gin with pine nuts for another label, she “revealed” that she did have some bottles onsite if I wanted it. Wow! Nearby Lattin Farms provided a final stop on my way back to Reno, so my car returned loaded with Fallon melons, squash, wine and spirits. Many thanks to Andy and Ashley, they were gracious and informative.

Naval Air Station Fallon

Reviewed By 4cents-worth - Grants Pass, United States

The U.S. Navy still trains it’s pilots at this facility to be better pilots like in the Top Gun movie. The static display of the airplanes was excellent and enhanced by our tour guide who did a superb job. Our visit included photos of our car club with the jets, plus a tour of the old control tower with a spectacular view of the base.

We visited on a nice January morning and saw all sorts of wintering birds. Really enjoyed the viewing platforms and interpretive trails. Beautiful time of year to visit.
