And while an afternoon with this many Ohio distilleries is a good time for any whiskey lover, the festival’s venue, Henmick Farm & Brewery, will likely add intrigue of its own.

Located at 4380 N. Old State Rd. in Delaware, Henmick doubles as both a historic family farmstead and a functioning craft brewery, complete with taproom and event space. It opened earlier this summer, and features a reconstructed 1800s barn alongside eight acres of open land guests are free explore.

Complete with on-site food trucks and live music, this seems like a pretty decent whiskey-sipping backdrop to us.

Visitors will also be able to purchase the first-ever Ohio Distillers Guild Collaboration whiskey, an extremely limited spirit created from hand-selected barrels by four different Ohio distilleries.
