After all, as we always say, good bourbon can change the world. Ironically enough, however, our first step was to actually cut […]
Operation Crush COVID-19 – Part 1
It’s no exaggeration to say we’re living in an entirely different world than we were this time last year. All of us at Garrison Brothers started off 2020 with big plans. We were going to have hundreds of tastings, dozens of events at the distillery, and we were kicking off our search for the best […]
Cocktails To-Go
Friends, Many of our business partners at bars, restaurants, and hotels are struggling to survive. Times are tough for them, and for us. Governor Abbott has used his emergency authority to allow “cocktails to go” from our restaurant partners. We hope he will soon extend the same opportunity to distilleries since we are hurting too.

Rest in Peace, Dave
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 […]
Red White and Bourbon

Son of a Son of a Sailor I did not attend a military academy and did not serve our country. I wanted to though, and I considered applying to the Naval Academy for admission during my junior year of high school. Both my dad and my grandfather had attended the Academy and served in the […]

Honey Dew Hullabaloo

Operation HoneyDew Garrison Brothers Distillery has been in business, legally, since 2006. That’s 12 long years.

But I have never tasted a honey-flavored bourbon I liked. […]
