Well-made beverages, held with care and counsel.
Barrister Beverages owns and supports a family of companies that brew, distill, and craft beverages. We give each one a sound legal and regulatory footing so its people can focus on what goes in the glass.
Four categories, one standard of care
Brewing
Lagers, ales, and seasonal beers made by brewers who run their own cellars and recipes.
Distilling
Whiskey, gin, and barrel-finished spirits, produced and bottled under federal and state permits.
Cider & fermented
Ciders and other fermented beverages built on fruit and patient fermentation.
Non-alcoholic
Alcohol-free beers and sparkling drinks made with the same craft as their counterparts.
Why an attorney-owned company
Beverage alcohol is one of the most closely regulated consumer industries. Ownership that understands the rules lets each company spend its energy on craft.
Compliance comes first
Permits, label approvals, excise tax reporting, and state distribution rules are handled with the attention they deserve.
Clear structure
Each subsidiary is its own company with its own team. Clean corporate structure keeps responsibilities and accountability plain.
Makers lead the making
Brewers, distillers, and cider makers decide what they produce. We support the business around them.
