Fort Hamilton Distillery is located in Brooklyn, New York and was founded in 2016 by Alex Clark and his wife Amy Grindeland. We caught up with this dynamic duo during our recent trip to the Hoochenanny Whiskey and Music festival. Fort Hamilton strives to make an array of spirits, but the brand was founded on the premise of creating authentic New York style rye that was popular before prohibition. In this episode, you will get to hear our interview with Alex that took place at the festival and you will also get to here our opinion of their rye whiskey once we arrived back in Kentucky and revisited it. We've never done an episode like this for the podcast and you won't want to miss it. Alex is a fascinating individual and he brings an unparalleled energy to whiskey making and his brand. We had very limited experience with Fort Hamilton before visiting NY. If you aren't familiar with Fort Hamilton, we promise you will know about them very soon because they are doing some amazing things.
