As the former owners of Not Your Father's Brewery,I am glad to see that they are back making their tasty concepts. The 20% root beet goes down like regular.It also makes an excellent adult roobeer float!

TL:DR - A unique and wonderful place that I cannot recommend highly enough.Now to the review:If Willy Wonka and Marie Curie had great great grandchildren who continued studying and refining the two fields you would end up with Spirit Water’s owner and this location.My brother had spoke about this magical place several times. He enjoys introducing people to the unique options offered here. I, having recently arrived from Florida, indicated that I too would enjoy trying beer that do not taste like beer.We arrived and each ordered a flight. Mine consisted of Root Beer Barrel Aged, Vanilla Cream, Butterscotch Root Beer and French Toast. My brother grabbed (at my urging) the Peanut Butter & Chocolate, Apple Pie, Orange Cream and Lazy Dog.We were served and began tasting. These – are – incredible .Each of them tasted exactly as expected, with one small caveat, they did NOT taste alcoholic. Danger Will Robinson...This was where some sampling came in. Trying a Naughty Decaf Iced Coffee beer and the slightly more potent 24% Root Beer. Yes, that one tasted like I expected a 10% to taste. Danger.Hmm, if beer is this good, what about the spirits.Holy Hanna… I shant list all that we tried, but I will say that I did not find a single one that was not spectacular. This man is a genius. I felt that way prior to finding myself just a wee bit drunk of my a$$.I can assure you that the cookies and cream tasted like an Oreo, that the Moo line was awesome and that we left with several bottles. Thankfully my brother had the sense to reign me in or I would have needed a truck to return to Florida.That said, I am both glad and very sad that this place is 1274 miles from my house. Glad because I cannot afford a second or third liver, and sad because I very much want to introduce as many people as possible to this.Hey, I found this place that is beyond your imagination… oh, no… it exists in a place far far away. This makes me a sucky friend.Soo for all the people in the Chicagoland / Central Illinois to Central Wisconsin / Indiana and Iowa area… this place is absolutely worth the drive.It is dangerous. This stuff goes down so smooth and tastes way too good. EAT FIRST! Have a designated driver / uber.This is not like other places. I used the word unique and I meant it in it’s literal form.Cheers!

We very much enjoyed it. This was my very first visit and a very pleasant one at that.

Amazing off the wall drinks! Unlike your typical brewery, but in a good way!

Drinks are more on the sweeter side

It is always a joy to come drink here. The place is clean and well maintained. The owners clearly care about their business!

Such a wonderful place to just sit back and relax. The beer is outstanding and the staff is so friendly. I highly recommend this place to bring your friends and enjoy a fun and relaxing evening catching up.
A very disappointing place I don't know if they serve food in here but the idea of the owner or friends of the owner allowing their big dogs to roam around as early disgusting the TAP Air here was very flat and not very good and this seems to be a very hardcore liquor place as all the people in the place appear to be very drunk and liquored up. This was a very disappointing place

Spirit gin is excellent. The botanicals really stand out. Just a few splashes of tonic on the rocks hit the spot. They have many whiskey variations too, my favourite being wheat. Best to try the samplers. Too bad they do not engage in mixed drinks; they didn't even have aromatic or orange bitters. So many outstanding mixed drinks can be made with these spirits.

Wow it was my first time there last night we came to see CJ & Nicole Perform! The "StreetFoodislife"truck was great! I had the quesidilla steak! The drinks were a bit sweet. The prices were Wright Cj and Nicole Rocked so we had a great night can't wait to see them perform again!!!!

Creepy place. Sweet syrupy drinks nauseated the 4 of us at the table. There was either a manager or owner who reminded me of my first awful boss I had when I was a fry cook. Same demeaning and rude behavior toward his employees. And what is with the dark parking lot? All of it was a bad vibe.

Nope. Weird vibe. More like Willy Wonka's Zima Factory than a "distillery". This is attracting the kids who just turned 21 crowd, which is not my jam. Dark, odd shaped parking lot that needs some lights. There are way better actual breweries and distilleries in the area. I would avoid this, unless you like bubblegum-flavored alcohol water and the ambiance of a VFW.
