点评:My partner planned a trip to the distillery for my birthday and we had such a great time! The drive out from Austin is reasonable and absolutely gorgeous, being located up in the hill country. The route is straightforward and the directions are clear on the website, the roads are well-marked from the highway as well. Every member of staff we interreacted with was super friendly and knowledgeable, from the bartenders, to the tour guides, to the folks running the giftshop, and the extremely energetic volunteers that assist with the bottling! The tour was longer than other distilleries we've visited and was fairly interactive, lots of opportunities for questions and a mini lesson on how to "properly" drink whiskey (the fancy way, with fancy glasses, very fun!!). There was complimentary bottled water available, given the heat, which is really great of them to offer! The grounds are beautiful too! Riding the wagon around the property was a lot of fun and made getting to all the spaced out buildings much earlier. They closed earlier than we had expected, but that's entirely on us for not checking. The bartenders were cool with us hanging out on the patio after last call to finish our drinks and snacks. We left with 2 of their specialty bottles to add to our collection! We will definitely be back to try and get our hands on a bottle of Lady Bird next year!
翻译:我的伴侣计划在我的生日那天去酿酒厂,我们玩得非常开心!从奥斯汀出发,车程合理,而且景色优美,因为酿酒厂位于山区。路线简单明了,网站上的路线指引也很清晰,从高速公路上下来,道路标识也很清晰。我们遇到的每一位工作人员都非常友好,知识渊博,从调酒师到导游,再到礼品店的工作人员,以及协助装瓶的精力充沛的志愿者!这次参观比我们参观过的其他酿酒厂都要长,而且互动性很强,有很多提问的机会,还有一个关于如何“正确”喝威士忌的小课程(用精致的酒杯,用精致的酒杯,非常有趣!!)。考虑到天气炎热,酿酒厂提供免费瓶装水,这真是太好了!酿酒厂的庭院也很漂亮!乘坐马车在酿酒厂里转悠非常有趣,让我们可以提前到达所有分散的建筑。酿酒厂比我们预期的要早关门,但这完全是我们的错,因为我们没有提前查看。调酒师们很热情地接待了我们,让我们在露台上享用完最后一杯酒和小吃。我们带回了两瓶他们的特色酒,丰富了我们的收藏!明年我们一定会再来,一定要尝尝Lady Bird!
