Of course, the spirits have to be the best part of visiting a distillery. Because of the Irish influence on Butte, this place has a great selection of bourbon, rye, Irish whiskey, and single-malt whiskey. There's also grain-based vodka and gin. You ask for a tasting, and can have eight, or four and a serious drink as part of the deal. On a gray afternoon, we did the four each and ended with a traditional Martini and a Moscow mule. We were not disappointed. Midafternoon, we had the place to ourselves. Go early and stay late!

Went there yesterday afternoon. The owners were in the building. Got to meet both of them. Wife explained the grapes, berries, fruits they used. We tasted everything. Couldn’t find 1 wine we didn’t like. Came home with a case of mixed wines

Beer takes a backseat to style here, and definitely not in a bad way. With a name like it possesses, you have here a brewery who makes many nods to the intellect, to artistry and to great thinkers, based upon their artwork. I suppose with breweries becoming a virtual norm in the country and particularly in the west, and especially in college towns, you’ve got to find your niche. Imagine Nation does exactly that. Bravo! Their beers were, on average, delicious. And they’ve an advantage that is exploited considerably: the river. I’m guessing few places are better in Missoula for passing a summer day and evening. If I lived in Missoula this would be one of my go-to’s. There you have it.

Glasgow's first and only brewery! Owner, Ben Boreson, was a mechanic for 30 years and tired of busting his knuckles. After home brewing beer for 5 years, he made the decision to transform the garage into a microbrewery. The Busted Knuckle opened in June 2015 and has enjoyed sharing their 10 beers and root beer and cream soda with people from over 40 U.S. states and several foreign countries.

A few dozen feet up the hill from the Lolo Creek Steakhouse, is this distillery and tasting room. Absolutely spectacular views, a great outdoor seating area to include fireplace, friendly and well-informed wait staff, and a great set of products and specialized cocktails. Definitely "plan our travels around visiting this place" when we are in the area next.

Not only is their offering mind-blowing, the atmosphere has charm. An all around delightful experience. Now, the choices are HARD since you’ll want to try nearly everything. One must pick strategically since by law they can only sell you 2 flights. I ended up buying: Bad Rock Rye Kirschwasser Daughter of the Sun Huckleberry Gin Huckleberry Liquor Little Cottonwood Bear Grass Those are my Montana souvenirs!! Note: MT law limits how many bottles they can sell per person per day. So you, too, may have to go a couple times or go to State Liquor Store.
