OUR DISTILLERY

Visit The Land That Changed Bourbon

Situated on working ranch land, smack dab in the middle of the picturesque Texas Hill Country, Garrison Brothers Distillery resides in Hye, Texas – a speck of a town with a population smaller than the proof of our signature Cowboy Bourbon®. Set atop a cattle-grazed and wildflower-speckled hill, our distillery officially opened its doors to the public in 2008 and has become home to friends, family and bourbon lovers from around the world.

Things To Know About Visiting Our Distillery

Have a question? We’ve gathered answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about visiting Garrison Brothers Distillery.

Unfortunately, no, we can’t allow any beer or wine on the premises due to TABC regulations. However, you’re more than welcome to enjoy Garrison Brothers cocktails and neat pours at The Whiskey Shack.

Smoking is permitted only in the designated Cigar Corral. For the safety of our guests, staff, and ranch, smoking is prohibited everywhere else on the property. The Texas Hill Country is highly susceptible to brush fires, and our barns and buildings contain thousands of gallons of flammable alcohol. We appreciate your help in reducing fire risk by using the Cigar Corral for all smoking activities.

Kids are welcome on our property but we are a working ranch so we ask that you keep a close eye on them!

We are dog-friendly for friendly dogs, so as long as your pup is well-behaved and on a leash, they are more than welcome!

Tours are rain or shine!

Please don’t. We’d love to try your concoctions. But making distilled spirits at home is a felony. Bringing them to our place is highly illegal, since we’ve got a federal and state permit.

Tours typically last 1 to 2 hours. Remember, 68 acres is a lot of ground to cover. The tour length often depends on who is giving the tour.

Tours are $10 per person, $20 on Saturdays, and free if you show up on a horse.

Tours and merchandise are cash, check or credit cards.

Pictures are fine. Video pisses us off. Nothing more embarrassing than to be caught scratching yourself on YouTube.

If you don’t there may be something wrong with you.

Yes! Please email group.events@garrisonbros.com at least 30 days in advance to arrange your visit. Include your preferred date and the number of guests, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your group.

Some have called it that.

Yes, we have restrooms available for both men and women. We kindly ask everyone to be considerate and leave the facilities tidy for the next guest.

Reservations are your best bet if you’re planning on a tour, but they’re not needed if you’d just like to sit and sip some bourbon in the sunshine. Come on by.
