We were looking for a 16+ year old toasted American Light Whiskey. Unfortunately there wasn't any available. I would greatly appreciate a heads up when it becomes available. Hopefully a week ahead of time so we can arrange travel. The Ryeconic is fantastic as is the Chocolate. Looking forward to adding more King's Family whiskies to my collection. I really enjoy sharing with friends who are amazed at the how good the 16+ year old toasted ALW is. My wife refuses to share the chocolate so I need a couple of backups next trip.

The vibe here was unmatched--fun, lively, and just an all-around great atmosphere. What really stood out was the staff.

They explained everything in detail, made the experience feel personal, and got us excited to continue the scavenger hunt to the other locations. Their energy and enthusiasm made a huge difference and turned a fun stop into a memorable experience. If you're planning to visit multiple locations, start here--you won't regret it!

He is very knowledgeable about every facet of each beer, and Fanatic has many different styles of beer than most pubs in Knoxville. They also retail sell to many restaurants,stores, and other breweries. Their Cobbled Path Porter is one of the best I have had. They also have Gose,Ciders,IPAs,and Shandys, like most other brewers, but they have a tendency to brew a little more than your average place. They specialize in Czech darks,Ambers and Pales, German Pilsners,Stouts, Schwarzbier,Oud Bruin,Hefeweizens,Kellerbiers, and even a Radler which is not something that is usually available but across the Pond as the British say. So, if you are interested in eclectic tastes and awesome beers, this is a great place to broaden your taste buds. The staff are very friendly and very helpful there are also bands on Fridays, games are available for everyone to play. A great patio with a fire pit is always a welcome site.
