Our Head Brewer and Distiller, Will Cody Whipple, was born and raised in Northern Nevada. Will attended the University of Nevada Reno and graduated in 2007 with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering with an emphasis in materials science and engineering. Will has over ten years’ experience working with polymers, nano-materials, solvents, chemicals, fuels and advanced lithium ion batteries. While working with these components Will has been involved in the design, process engineering, equipment design, procurement, fabrication and operation of solvent extraction, vacuum distillation, refining and hydro-processing equipment for large and small industrial facilities. Will has over 7 years’ experience in the brewing and distilling art that has always been his passion. He is the lead engineer and designer of the brewery and distillery incorporating some of the following features into the brewery and distillery.

We designed and built all the equipment custom, in-house to best showcase the pure flavors you get from independently grown hops and malt. We clarify our beer through a centrifuge to best protect the aromas and flavor without adding chemical fining agents. Advanced design and technique are used every step of the way to create the best beer possible.

Our proprietary vacuum distillation process (also known as cold distillation) occurs at extremely low pressure at ambient, room temperature. In traditional distillation, heat is applied which creates chemical reactions that cause unwanted, harsh flavors. Our state-of-the-art 10 Torr Technology distills without added heat thus eliminating these chemical reactions allowing the pure and unique flavors of the spirts to shine through without any chemical harshness. This advanced technology creates more control throughout the process and ultimately a better product.
