We had time to go grab a cocktail from the bar prior. Ryan was behind the bar, crafting beverages for folks. My husband chose to have a Sazerac, while I went for an espresso martini. Drinks in hand we headed back to spend time with Forrest, who took us on a brief tour of the facility. He gave us the history of how Stranahan's started. It was interesting to learn that they bottle by hand. We came to our tasting set up. At each couple there were jars with items to smell that would be aromas or tastes we would experience, like rose, leather, tobacco, and cinnamon. There were four tastes paired with caramel, cheese, chocolate and fig. Each pairing brought out different flavors in the whiskey samples. We both had a lovely time and at the end, I had my husband pick a favorite for me to get for him for his birthday. Great experience!

Sure, your location was a little hard to find (and by little, I mean ALOT) but parking is ample, an extra event venue is attached next door and your twinkle lights had us beckoning to walk in! Once we walked through your doors, your super sweet staff was there to greet us, give us a run-down of the holiday specials on the menu and offer us a variety of tastings! It's your vodka that really shines through - so much in fact, that my husband and I left with a bottle of your in house made Peach Vodka to enjoy for later! Dad loved his Bourbon, while Mom, my husband and I were easily obsessed with your take on a holiday espresso martini with cream - which was absolutely delicious! I'm obsessed with you and happy to find you in my hood - aka the burbs! I can't wait to return in the summer - because THAT patio! Until next time! -Your new biggest fan, Katie F

I went searching for a non chain bar or restaurant to support and was shocked to see that Lakewood CO of all places had a local distillery and just had to try it. It honestly exceeded my expectations as I originally planned on coming in for one drink but left after trying 3 because it was so good. My first drink was the Coffee, God and Cigarettes. This drink offered a well-balanced blend of bitter and sweet notes, both light and flavorful. The tobacco finish is present but not overpowering, making for a very enjoyable overall experience. The 2nd drink I got was the old fashioned.... Which was made with both whiskey and rum in it which left me a bit nervous to actually order it. But don't let the rum fool you, this is a classic-tasting delicious Old Fashioned. Ironically, the rum has more traditional whiskey character than their white whiskey (which tastes like scotch). If you like Old Fashioneds, you'll find this version delicious. I finished with the Serrano Cucumber Gimlet. It features a fresh cucumber essence and a well-balanced, subtle heat. A unique and excellent twist on the classic. All the in house spirits were great, Cameron the bartender on shift was able to answer any and all questions I had, the drinks were great and the atmosphere was wonderful. I'd definitely recommend giving this Lakewood distillery a shot

State 38 is a fantastic distillery right here in Golden, CO. We love their local story; one which…read moreresults in agave-based distillates of the highest quality. We first learned about State 38 through a Groupon, probably about a decade ago, when they had first opened their distillery in Golden. Their tour was particularly fun and interesting, as I didn't realize that the different liquors (e.g., tequila, vodka, gin, whiskey) are not necessarily determined by their ingredients, but also the distillation process, including the temperature of distillation. At the time, they were focused on making the very best agave liquors possible, and their "tequila" is amazing. I encourage anyone who's interested in liquors to join their tour, which I'm sure will still end with a complementary cocktail. We recently attended one of their cocktail classes, which the husband and wife team hold from time-to-time and are sold on EventBrite. This class included a tour, and the instructions and recipe for some of their best-selling cocktails. We discovered that State 38 has been sold, which was a little disappointing to us, given that we were drawn to the local story of two CU students coming into their own. They still have a variety of liquors, including tequila and gin, and I think vodka, but they focus a lot on whiskey now. Although I consider myself a tequila aficionado, my husband loves whiskey, and State 38 products are about as good as they get. They are very reasonably priced, as well.

The atmosphere at this distillery is a great mix of history, craft, innovation and true love for their business. During the tour we learned about their two distillery cats, who keep the grains safe from hungry little mice, who coincidentally are named after bootleggers :) We also learned about the ghost of a little girl, which the call Molly, and about the many business ventures and owners of this historic cabin. We learned that the stained glass are very special as there is no cross lead structure keeping the glass together, we learned about the Swedish blacksmith who furnished the huge fireplace (one of the largest in CO) with it's horseshoe ornamental hooks and other ironwork. We learned about the bomb shelter in the back, as well as proper procedures and temps needed to create the various proofs they produce here. Black Bear is the only distillery in the nation who has been able to obtain permission from Ireland to produce Irish Style Whisky abroad. They are just a great group of people, with a passion for spirits, that want to share their love and knowledge with the world. Go see them if you have a chance. New businesses are what breeds new life into small old towns like Green Mountain Falls. Take a trip up the pass, and go see this place. Better yet, get a map stamped and embark into a Colorado-wide distillery road trip. You won't be disappointed.
