They have free tastings on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, which are great for people learning about wine and beer. The owner is also incredibly knowledgeable, and I always enjoy talking beer and wine with him. The layout of the store is also great, with all the regions together and labeled. The selection is also one of the best I have ever seen, and I don't think I will ever run out of beers to try.

Their cocktails were abundant and there was a wide variety for every palate. You can get a cocktail to sip on throughout the tour as well as some popcorn to munch on. Kate was SUPERB at explaining the history of Mayberry Spirits as well as the distilling process at their facility. She also does the ghost tours in Mt Airy and we can't wait to go back and have her show us around downtown! The actual tasting after the tour was the most bang for your buck. We got to taste all all of their whiskeys that they make in house and then we got to play around and mix them with an assortment of bitters and juices. We got to taste an assortment of six for only $12! Lastly their gift shop is the cutest if you need a birthday/Christmas gift. We want to visit again just to bring home one of their cocktail kits. We are so glad we made Mayberry Spirits the first stop during our Mt Airy day to get the party started. A cheap and awesome way to spend the day!

We had the BEST time at Mayberry Spirits. This is probably the best distillery tour I've ever done…read more Our tour guide, Kate, was everything you'd want in a guide! She was extremely knowledgeable, personable, tons of personality and completely informative. I loved how they have a board showing the boiling points of the components in their spirits and they had tons of visuals (the sorghum they use in their whisky, two jars of different proof whisky that demonstrated the difference in appearance when shaken, pieces of the barrel components) it was very interactive, informative and fun! We were there a little early, so we got cocktails (which come with popcorn!) I love that they do have the cocktail option, because many distilleries offer only the spirits stand-alone (I can't hang) and I enjoyed the Dutch Apple Pie I ordered. I appreciated they even went a step further with super nice presentation of the drinks! You can take your cocktails into the distillery room and sip while you enjoy the tour. After the tour, we went back to the main area for a tasting! This was a treat. They have ample areas for the 4 groups doing the tour to taste. Our group of 5 gathered round the barrel to embark on the tasting. It has cute little Mayberry Spirits shot glasses already placed for us, along with a dump bucket & water. First, we tasted the 3 spirits stand-alone. I don't really like straight alcohol, but I enjoyed the vanilla whisky. After those, it's not over! We got to try several cocktail shooters. Some with Cheerwine, some with bitters (they had tons of flavors, everyone got to pick their flavor and add their own!) I really enjoyed the concoctions they presented! They had so many great gifts for purchase as well! They offer cocktail kits that include their spirits and all the necessary mixers! We all agreed we want to come back to get Christmas gifts! I was completely shocked at the value of what we got at Mayberry Spirits! The cocktails were $10 across the board - super reasonable, especially considering the quality/presentation. The tour and tasting was $12 total! I couldn't believe it. I wouldn't have been surprised if it was $20 considering the great 20-30 minute tour we got and the generous tasting, PLUS the souvenir shot glass! This was such a fun experience and a great place to go with a group!

I grabbed 2 bottles of buffalo trace and she shouted at me that I could only get one. I immediately said "sorry, I didn't realize" and went and put the bottle back up without hesitation. She continued to shout at me that there was a sign (there wasn't any clear signage of this, it was on extremely small text on the tag next to the sku!). I said there wasn't and she pointed to the small text, to which I said "nobody is reading that" and continued to purchase my bottle with the other (much nicer) employee at the cashier. I ended up getting my second bottle anyways when my partner purchased it, ya know - since it's one per person :)

I followed up on the referral and thoroughly enjoyed this unique little shop. In addition to cider, wine, and craft beers, there is a wide selection of local crafts, art, and really unique souvenirs. The whole establishment has somewhat of a 1960's Hippie vibe. The proprietress was friendly, helpful and full of information about the attractions in and around Floyd. Believe me, with the lack of cell phone and internet service in this area, you need some human directions in Floyd. This place was a treat to visit, don't miss it.

They very generously provided wonderful bratwurst nut just be careful of the super hot mustard. A real zinger. Love that this business has been around since 1946. A well stocked and widely varied selection of wines and other beverages. In a cozy wood paneled setting, screams 'INVITING'. They also have a sitting room/tasting room along with bar and TVs. Perfect for just hanging out and possibly for organized gatherings. This place oozes taste and sophistication but with down to earth practicality. Spoke with the granddaughter or a great granddaughter, working the register, of the originator of the business. Family institutions hold a place near and dear in my heart. And on top of that this seems to be the place to find just about anything you're looking for; if they don't have it I've got a strong feeling that the staff will help procure it. Definitely looking forward to maybe getting their recommendations for pairings with finer food dishes. Looking forward to tying into what this place has to offer.
