    Is see that several breweries are also doing distilled spirits. What other breweries besides Anchor, New Holland, Rogue and SunKing are doing crraft spirits?

    Dogfish does spirits though I don't think they are available further than about 50 miles from where they are distilled in DE. I think their gin is pretty awesome. They call it Jin for some reason

    Southern Tier, but I don't know if it's public yet, they told us on the last tour in October that they were developing it.

    Sort of the opposite really. Corsair is a distiller first and foremost (Based out of Bowling Green, KY and Nashville, TN) But they are experimenting in using hop mash- for example their Citra IPA Whiskey is incredible- everyone should check it out if you're able to find a bottle. Very unique- you can reallllly taste the citra- my buddies have even been soaking white oak spirals with it to age their homebrews with. ---Also nice handle- GO GATORS!!!

    Agree about being the opposite just adding one to the list that do both

    I hear tell their spirits are the thing to have & the craft beer not so much. I've seen the Big Chuck barley wine in stores.

    Ballast Point has a special Distillery tour you can go on that culminates in a tasting session inside of a sweet, wood-paneled room dedicated to sampling their spirits.

    Breckenridge Brewery also has a distillery. My brother in law is a big fan of their whiskey.

    I believe they have and came to some sort of agreement a few years back. I remember seeing an article about it, but don't remember the details.
