Ironworks Distillery

Terrific local distillery and even more amazing history behind the location which used to be a local blacksmith location. The tour was awesome and the tasting was just as good.
I had no idea the ship used in Pirates of the Caribbean was originally built here.

Such an amazing building. Walked in and were greeted right upon arrival. There was a full line up at the bar but the gentleman who greeted us said to just let him know if we wanted any samples, and of course we did, and he brought them right to us. Reasonably priced for a great product. Would go back to check out the tour and try a few more things!

We stopped by Ironworks Distillery during our visit to Lunenburg. We had already tried some of their spirits a while ago but, it was really cool to be there in person.

There’s a lot of passion and enthusiasm involved here, the staff is very friendly and helpful and we had the chance to sample a broader variety of products.

Although you could declare this as a shop, the staff gives you tons of information how their produce is made AND you can experience it by yourself. The classic smell of a wood burning distillery, the ambience in this 100+ year old building, the old distillery itself, the fine bottles which are displayed, the recipes you can grab and try at home.... we really enjoyed our stay and we tried some of the "good stuff". And yes: It is good! Recommended for interested persons - and you can definitely learn something about the distillery. Try the maple rum and the maple cream rum. You won't be disappointed.

Loved this place. Bought a bunch of gin and vodka to take home. People were friendly, chatty and gave us a lot of information about the distillery that endeared us so much to make several purchases. Apparently, all the ingredients are entirely local. And they have these sophisticated distilling devices custom made in Germany. And, I think the building (historically) used to be a blacksmith.
