Reviews for Crystal Ridge Distillery in Hot Springs, AK
Crystal Ridge Distillery may have been our favorite part of this weekend. Our tour guide Abbey was so fun and knowledgeable... about the process and everything that went into making their Moonshine. You can tell she really loves her job. The tasting wasphenomenal and they didn't skimp on the amount we got to try. The quality of their moonshine was just phenomenal. We had 3moonshine samples, 6 vodka soda samples (which they also make there) and 2 moonshine cocktail samples. Every one of them wasphenomenal, and Sydney was so great about answering our questions. They had an awesome bar to order drinks at as well. I don'teven like bloody mary's but the one that Tara made was so delicious, I may have stolen it from my husband and downed it. If Iwasn't already past tipsy I would have ordered another one. We ended up leaving with the Salted Carmel moonshine and a 4 pack oftheir Spicy Watermelon vodka sodas. If we could have bought more we absolutely would have. 10/10, 5 stars and all that jazz. Ifyou're going to Hot Springs or just passing through, this place is a must. I can't wait to go back some day.

Moonshine at this distillery is superb. It has a smooth finish with any flavor that you prefer. We used the maple bacon... moonshine to marinade our bbq chicken thighs and it had just the right juicy, sweet, nutty bacon flavor- 10/10 recommend. It isalso excellent to drink over ice. The tour at this facility is enjoyable and fun at an affordable price point. Read more
Flavored moonshines are not really my thing but Crystal Ridge does a good job with them. They are a bit sweet but they taste... spot on to what they say they should taste like. This distillery is really nice and the tasting is a lot of fun. They also makea really nice young whiskey, although it is currently distilled in Texas. If you are visiting Hot Springs, I would put them onyour todo list. Read more
We came for a long weekend vacation to Hot Springs and ended up visiting twice. Absolutely amazing in every aspect. The tasting... was great for a cheap price (only $10/person when we came). The cocktails are great. We tried quite a few on the list andweren?t disappointed. All staff is knowledgeable and friendly. A great atmosphere and experience overall. Really wish there wasa place like it near us! Read more

This is a must visit if you come to Hot Springs! We arrived and were greeted by Abbey who led our moonshine tasting and then the... tour. Super fun! We then had JP make us the most amazing drinks we've ever had. Seriously, phenomenal. We hung out for hours andplayed games (they have a good selection of table games). We've also been here for a wedding in the past and the entireexperience was flawless. 100 out of 10. Read more

Made a stop at the beautiful Crystal Ridge. Tasted a few flavours of their moonshine. Very surprised at the smoothness of their... product. Better than most others I?ve tried. Erika was outstanding as our bartender. She helped us find some flavours to takehome, and her outgoing personality was very engaging. Bought some T-shirts, since they had woman?s styles. We will be back ifever in Hot Springs again. Read more
