Bourbon List & Stations:

With our Virginia ABC permit for the festival, we can only serve bourbon that is purchased at VA ABC. We purchase bourbon just like you do! Our volunteer team of "bourbon special forces" jump in the car and run to the store for all these crazy product drops and enter all the ABC lotteries! We work hard ALL YEAR to be able to offer you an interesting selection of bourbons.  We are limited to what we can obtain via VA ABC, we can not purchase bourbon out-of-state or order it on line from various internet sources. 

Pending any snafoos with our final pick up right before the festival, our 2024 Bourbons are listed below by each station.  If you want more info on how bourbon tastings work, scroll down below the list for more info. For more details on each bourbon click on the Bourbon Descriptions button. 

If you live in Virginia and would like to get involved and be one of our "Bourbon Special Forces" email us at [email protected]. Even if you live out of town you can help us!

​HOW DO BOURBON TASTINGS WORK? If you purchased a bourbon ticket, you will be given a special (10) tabbed wristband when you enter the gate.  You also get a special bourbon tasting glass that has a (1/2) oz. mark on it for your bourbon tastings and a (1.5 ) oz. mark for your brew tastings. Do not take the tabs off of your wristband yourself, our bourbon pourers will do that when they give you a tasting. Decide what bourbons you want to taste and then bring your tasting glass to the station! If you want to do some of the VA Brew Tastings, just use your bourbon glass and head over to the Brew Village. 

VISIT THE BOURBON INFO & BOURBON ICE TENT:
Want to know what bourbons are at which booth? They will be listed on a sign at the booth and you can also pick up a bourbon card & a pencil at the Bourbon Info & Ice Tent. That way you can keep track of what you tasted and make notes for future reference.

Like your bourbon chilled? BEFORE YOU start tasting, go pick up a complimentary small cup of ice. Get your tasting first and then pop a cube in your glass. Please do NOT PUT ice in your tasting glass before you get a pour.
