Town Branch (Lexington Brewing & Distilling Co.)

Lexington Brewing & Distilling Co opened in 1999 as the first new distillery built in Lexington in more than a century, and its Town Branch label takes its name from the creek that supplied the city's earliest distillers. Located at 401 Cross Street, the operation is the only combined brewery-and-distillery stop on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, producing a higher-malt bourbon alongside its Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale.
