Cut Spike Distillery

La Vista, Nebraska

Cut Spike Distillery in La Vista, Nebraska, isn’t trying to be some grandiose speakeasy-style parlor. It’s a straight-forward, no-fuss operation that prides itself on hand-crafted beers and a surprisingly impressive spread of small-batch spirits. There’s a single-malt whiskey that’s as serious as a mathematician, a vodka that won’t give you a head-ache on the road, a rum that’s somehow less like a pirate’s treasure chest, and a brandy that would make a monk sigh with envy.

• Fast-paced and informative tour experience

Great Plains Distillery

Scottsbluff, Nebraska

Scottsbluff, Nebraska: where the great plains have turned their back on tractors to throw on the whiskey bar. Great Plains Distillery is a small-batch operation that began in a 15-gallon beer keg and now churns out spirits from a 120-gal still. The founders’ claim to fame? A vodka – Vamoose – that makes your tongue itch for a second. Beyond that, they plan to spread out into gin, rum, whiskey, and maybe a bitters that will make your soul weep. The best thing? Their smoked whiskeys, which look as if someone accidentally left a barbecue on the floor for months and then decided to bottle the results. The vodka itself is surprisingly clean; it won’t turn your mouth into a scene from a film. Owners are eager to give you a lecture on grain, no apologies, but the hours are as erratic as a storm at the Dakota. That’s charm.

• Unique smoked whiskeys available
• Small-batch vodka with fine flavor

Lazy RW Distillery

Moorefield, Nebraska

Lazy RW Distillery, in the flat plains of Nebraska, refuses to play the craft bar card. A father-son duo, inspired by a prohibition relative who brewed a covert still by the Niobrara, have adopted local corn and a painstaking slow distillation, because speed is for coffee, not whiskey.

• Distillery offers unique flavors such as peach and strawberry/lemon.
• 30% alcohol content is well-suited for certain tastes.
