Customer reaction to one of our weekly music inspired Smash Burgers
Tucked away in the rolling Rockford/Byron countryside, our craft distillery and tasting room offers something truly special - where over 20 handcrafted spirits meet culinary artistry in an atmosphere that feels like your favorite neighborhood hangout.
From our famous towering smash burgers to artisanal charcuterie boards, Chef Tim and his team create made-from-scratch dishes that pair perfectly with our extensive cocktail menu featuring our signature vodkas, rums, whiskeys, and bourbons. Whether you're exploring our full spirits lineup during a leisurely Saturday afternoon with live music, joining us for an intimate cigar & whiskey night, or simply discovering your new favorite burger-and-cocktail combination, every visit feels like a celebration.
Come see why our guests can't stop taking pictures of their food - and then discover it tastes even better than it looks, especially with the perfect spirit pairing.

The Brasserie brings food truck flavor with distillery sophistication. While we're not a full-service kitchen, we've mastered the art of creating crave-worthy dishes that perfectly complement your Barnstormer cocktail experience. Our cozy atmosphere transforms casual dining into memorable moments. During summer's live music series, we craft special menu items inspired by each week's featured musicians - because great food, like great music, should move you.
Every dish starts with fresh ingredients prepared on-site, many grown right here at the distillery. We put heart, soul, and locally-sourced goodness into everything we create. No shortcuts, no compromises - just honest cooking that honors both our craft spirits and your taste buds.
