Love Reservoir spirits and their tasting room. The tasting…read moreroom has a large bar with ~7 seats and two community tables. You can see into the distillery from a couple of large windows. They offer both cocktails and flights Their founders series Wheat, Bourbon and Rye are single grain (100% wheat, 100% corn, 100% Rye respectively) perfect for sipping. Hunter Scott is for mixing and then they have their speciality Hollands series They have the standard versions of Manhattan and Old Fashions, as well as a rotation of seasonal specials Everyone who works their is super friendly and will take the time to talk about their spirits - Mike is our favorite!

First stop into the Ballast tasting room and loved our visit…read more There's 2 different inside seating spaces and outdoor seating. You order from qr codes on your table and they bring your coctails to your table. Food available as well Very fun seasonal cocktail menu and of course martinis! The "garage door" side was well air-conditioned which was awesome on the hot day we visited :)

Nice lowkey spot to grab a good cocktail. Great balanced flavors, quality and good prices…read more Not much indoor seating and the outside area is wonderful

Highly recommend trying out their flights. Their moonshine is tasty and packs a punch…read more Highly recommend their lavender and pickle moonshine ( they nailed the flavor for both)

Belle isle moonshine is one of my faves local distilleries in RVA. They come out with new flavors…read morepretty often, so you never get bored. However, some of my faves are the OGs. I'm talking blood orange & cold brew. Also, I enjoy the tasting room! I typically come here to try a new flavor before buying a bottle. The staff is always super welcoming & friendly. It is located in the warehouse, so no bells & whistles. But they have a table inside, and we'll as some benches inside to enjoy your tastings. It's super affordable, and buying your products & merch here is cheaper than shipping.

My friends and I decided to visit this distillery and we were all so happy we did…read more It was very welcoming and had that homey feeling where everyone knew each other. We each got a couple of drinks and we split two appetizers, and everything was very good. I opted for the Bonfire Buzz, which was one of the tastiest rum drinks I've had. It's made with spiced rum, apple cider and ginger beer, and definitely had a kick. We split the Red Eyed Goat and Finklestien's Nachos and both were really good. My other friend got the Beef on Weck sandwich with a side of mac and cheese and really enjoyed his meal. In addition to spirits and mixed drinks, they also offer beer and wine. This a cute place that gives back to the community, and is well worth a visit.

Went out here to go camping nearby and this place is a pretty solid gem within this local area…read more When they get busy parking can get a bit busy. Just note that there is extra parking behind the building. There aren't many great food / dining options within the local area but this place really is a great place in any area. The customer service is great, food is delicious, and the atmosphere is comfy. It was so nice for us that we actually came back twice during a 4 day vacation! :) Recommendation: You have to try the tomato pie dip. It's so delicious. If you're in the area, it's absolutely worth the visit. Food Taste: 5 Overall Service: 5 Value of service to cost: 5 Facility: 5 Ambiance: Small bar that's quaint and open. I enjoyed the decor within. Repeat customer: yes! Dog Friendly: I didn't ask - but maybe the patio?

Sleepy Fox is my favorite moonshine distillery in Metro Richmond! I think it's actually the only…read moreone I've been too, but honestly it's my top Saturday outing space.. The offer 10.00 flights! Yes! Flights of moonshine! You can either try 6 different moonshines or 3 and a mix drink. I enjoy the Maggie Bailey mixed drink. It's a summer drink that includes lavender.. I recommend all newcomers to try the flight of 6! They offer a moonshine that is 150 proof, 90proof, 80 proof! All the proofs! My favorite is the apple pie moonshine and the cherry! They are silencers lol! They don't have the bite that the 150 or bourbon moonshine has. So if you're ever in the Hanover area give them a gander.

A friend and I stopped in yesterday to check this place out. It's located at the top of a single…read morelane windy road. When we entered, we found the two owners, a husband and wife, talking to a group of customers. The wife said as soon as she saw our car pull in, she knew she had to come from the house next door and help her husband. They have been married for over 40 years and really should be a comedy team, very entertaining to listen to their back and forth banter! My friend opted for a Moscow Mule made with their Apple Pie moonshine (or as they call it, "Gooch Hooch"), and she said her drink was delicious. I decided to get a flight of their Apple Pie, Blueberry and Blackberry moonshine. The Apple Pie flavor was definitely my favorite, but the owners said the Lemon and Blackberry were their most popular. They also make several whiskeys, bourbon and gin for those with more adult tastes, lol! Their tasting room is on the smaller size, but is cozy and owners definitely make it entertaining. They've got great outdoor spaces for the warmer weather. My friend and I had a good time and would definitely come back.

Acoustics are loud in here! Say what?? I said... oh never mind! Today this distillery was…read moreeverything but still. Full of folks having a good times and getting into the "spirit" of things! If you are in the Goochland area, this cool distillery is worth a gander! As the name states, it's atop of a hill, surrounded by a forest in a rustic setting. There are two fire pits, which we snuggled around while we sipped our libations. Also a stage is on the grounds when there's live music here! Inside is small, a few tables, a bar, and shelves of hooch for sale! They offer other gifts as well, soaps, coffee, chocolates - I bought several!! We also purchased some of the blackberry moonshine they make, which the owner made into a nice presentation with a galvanized bucket and the other items we chose all wrapped up! It make a wonderful gift! The liquors are mostly bourbon whiskey, scotch, rye, vodka and moonshine. My hubby tried a flight, and I had a coffee/kahlua/whiskey drink - I'm not much of a liquor drinker, a bit strong for me, but it was pretty good! We also got a tour of the distillery and it was so cool seeing all the machinery and how the distilling process is done! The owners are super sweet and hospitable! We would definitely give this place another "shot" whenever we are in the neighborhood! I can't wait til it's warmer and they have live bands!!

Their Quonset hut building is very unique and looks great as well. Additionally, Dave and the others that work there are so kind and helpful. You can tell they really put their heart and soul into their business and it shows through their products and service.

I wanted so much to really like this place and their distilled spirits!…read moreThe owners and patrons were very friendly and the tour was very informative! Really rustic "speakeasy" beside the distillery touring area. Quaint place with open mic for musicians and different food trucks on the weekends. Now the reason for only 3 stars! We tried the tastings of three different spirits I was really looking forward to the Gin because of the botanicals they use! Unfortunately I could not even drink the small drink that they fixed for me‍ The huzz ban and I did not like any of their spirits Possibly if more time goes by and aging of their offerings these three "brothers" might make it! I certainly hope so! Time will tell!
