Celebrating 20 Years

Once a shed for storing vegetables grown here on the poor farm, this space was converted in 1998 to its new role as Edgefield Distillery. To mark 20 years, we’re kicking off on St. Patrick’s Day – Saturday, March 17, 2018 – with drink specials throughout McMenamins, lasting through the year. Order the featured distillery cocktail and get a special McMenamins Passport stamp:

March - Hogshead Whiskey Poor Farm Sour $8

August - Monkey Puzzle Monkey Punch
September - Pear Brandy Sidecar

Today this former vegetable storage is also home to the Distillery Bar, and serves as the “clubhouse” for Edgefield's par-3 Pub Course.

Visitors can watch the stills as spirits are crafted. Specialties of the house include the rich, amber-hued Hogshead Whiskey; fragrant Edgefield Brandy; Penney's Gin; as well as Longshot and Pear Brandy.

Spirits can be sampled and purchased at the adjacent Distillery Bar, open to guests 21 and over. Cozy up next to the fire or at outside tables during fair weather.
