Corsair Distillery & Taproom

Childhood friends Darek Bell and Andrew Webber began homebrewing beer and wine in Darek and Amy Lee Bell’s garage. They hit a snag while working on a prototype bio-diesel plant, causing Andrew to remark that making whiskey would be much more satisfying. The idea stuck, and the two soon found themselves studying distilleries and spirits. Soon after, Corsair Distillery was founded. Corsair’s spirits have been praised in publications like Food and Wine, Saveur, Imbibe, Whisky Magazine, Whisky Advocate, the Atlantic, Time Out New York, and Maxim.com. Corsair’s innovative and adventurous spirits have won 41 medals at international spirits competitions.  Tours and tastings are available but reservations are requested. You can stop in and buy bottles of Corsair any time Corsair is open. There is also a beer taproom on site with six taps for local beers, nine taps for US craft beers, and one tap for German draft.    Corsair Artisan Distillery is open At 3 PM Tuesday - Friday and noon each Saturday & Sunday.
