Less than a month from now, on July 29th, 8 bartenders from across the country will be going head-to-head in Austin, Texas in the 2021 Bourbon Brawl Presented By Garrison Brothers And Texas Monthly. However, with so many amazing cocktails presented in the semi-finals, we didn’t want y’all to miss out on tasting some of […]
When I first purchased the plot of land that would become Garrison Brothers Distillery in 2004, the distillery’s new home of Hye, Texas was a far cry from the close-knit community you might typically expect from a small Texas town.

We Filled Barrel Number 30,000! To Celebrate, The Boys Want To Fry You Some Chicken. Last month Garrison Brothers Distillery achieved a major milestone; we filled our 30,000th bourbon barrel with the most delicious, delightful, sinfully good brown liquor ever made.

BUY TICKETS HERE On Friday, June 21 through Saturday, June 22, Hill Country […]
Rest In Peace Dave! You were a respected historian, author, distiller, and friend. You are probably the most influential reason that there are now thousands of small distilleries like mine in America today. I will raise a glass to you tonight and fondly reminisce our nights drinking good bourbon by the fire-pit as […]
