The Crowded Barrel Whiskey Company is the world's first crowdsourced whiskey distillery - and the Whiskey Tribe is that crowd. At its core, Crowded Barrel is a distillery for the terminally curious. Beyond funding, our community decides what whiskey gets made and how it gets made - but we don't stop there.
While many distilleries are held back by the whims of big investors as they chase prestige or profit, thousands of Magnificent Bastards have stepped up and broken those traditional shackles. Crowded Barrel is financially backed by those whiskey lovers through Patreon (a funding platform), where behind the scenes content and conversations determine our path forward.
No quarterly financial goals, no dusty dogma, no snobbery - our distillery is squarely aimed at exploring one question above all else, "What is whisk(e)y capable of?"
