Product Description
The Whiskey Factory is the last remaining structure at the site that largely defined Detroit’s brewing legacy. Brewing at the site goes as far back as the 1930s when Goebel Brewing Company built a massive brewery to compete with Stroh’s, which was Detroit’s largest brewery at the time. Shortly after Stroh’s acquired Goebel in the 1960s, the building was converted to a factory to produce Stroh’s ice cream, a successful business created out of necessity during the days of Prohibition when producing alcohol was illegal. Today, Detroit City Distillery is reviving the long history of alcohol production at the site that started it all. Take your dad on a tour, or give him a pair of tix to invite a guest to join him. He’ll learn about the art and science of the distilling process from grain to glass. Then taste whiskey in the rickhouse. They’ll even cover history during a sampling of a range of spirits including vodka and gin, in addition to whiskey.
