点评:Balcones was an overall great experience! Kira was our tour guide and she was amazing! She made everyone feel welcome and encouraged us to ask questions throughout the tour. Even though we did the 6 PM tour she still had a ton of energy and enthusiasm. You start the tour with a bit of brand history and then walk through the different steps of whiskey production. Going through a bit of how Balcones takes their approach to spirits production compared to other distilleries.
With the tasting at the end, you get to taste 4 of the core Balcones offerings. Each one is unique in its own way. At the end of the tasting, you get to take home your mini-tasting glass.
After the tour, I highly recommend you stop by the bar. If you enjoyed something you can get another pour here. However, I recommend the tasting flight. You can try 3 new things (1/2 oz pour) for $12. I suggest you use this opportunity to try some of the more expensive Balcones offerings. If you like rum I also highly recommend that you give that a try here! Also, there is a selection of seasonal beers available. Nathan was our bartender and he was also great!
翻译:Balcones 的体验总体来说很棒!Kira 是我们的导游,她太棒了!她让每个人都感到宾至如归,并鼓励我们在整个游览过程中提问。尽管我们参加了下午 6 点的游览,但她仍然精力充沛、热情洋溢。游览从品牌历史开始,然后了解威士忌生产的不同步骤。与其他酿酒厂相比,Balcones 的烈酒生产方法略有不同。
在最后的品酒环节,您可以品尝 Balcones 的 4 种核心产品。每一种都有自己的独特之处。品酒结束后,您可以将迷你品酒杯带回家。
游览结束后,我强烈建议您去酒吧。如果您喜欢某样东西,可以在这里再喝一杯。但是,我推荐品酒套餐。您可以尝试 3 种新东西(1/2 盎司),价格为 12 美元。我建议您利用这个机会尝试一些更昂贵的 Balcones 产品。如果您喜欢朗姆酒,我也强烈建议您在这里尝试一下!此外,这里还提供各种季节性啤酒。Nathan 是我们的调酒师,他也很棒!
