Great Lakes Distillery has called Wisconsin home since our founding by Guy Rehorst in 2004. As the first distillery to open in the state since Prohibition, we have been trailblazers for the Wisconsin Craft Spirits industry of today.

Since our inception we have been committed to fermenting and distilling high quality spirits by sourcing the finest ingredients from our home state. Whether it is Wisconsin grown grain, locally harvested honey, Door County cherries, or Marathon County ginseng, you will find the spirit of Wisconsin in every bottle we make. This "grain-to-glass" process brings truly unique local flavor to each spirit.

We look forward to sharing our unique products and meeting people who appreciate high quality craft distilled spirits. Stop in and see for yourself how unique these hand crafted spirits are! We offer tours daily and our tasting room, which features a large bar, tables, and outdoor patio is also open daily. Plus, don't miss our gift shop! All of our current spirits and a variety of gifts and souvenirs are available for purchase. We also house Fox Den, maker of smash burgers and foxy bites, with vegan and gluten-free options! You can see their menu, along with our cocktail menu, by clicking the button below.
