copper run distillery

This place is just down the road from Bear Creek Winery and Cabins so if you visit one you have to visit the other. It is worth the trip and information you get.

Smooth and delicious. A bit of a drive but worth it. Feel like Uncle Jesse and the Duke boys could pull up any minute. Friendly staff too.

This distillery is off the beaten path. At first glance it appears as if you are pulling up to someones house. It's a small distillery and there is a tasting room on location. The owner is very nice, gave a really good tour of his setup, and answered all of our questions. It doesn't cost anything and is definitely worth doing.

Just off the beaten path between Springfield and Brandon, worth a stop if breweries or distilleries interest you. We toured the distillery and sampled several drinks. The staff was great and made our visit fun. I left with a bottle of whiskey to give as a unique gift. They also have personal (small) whiskey barrels available for purchase, which would be a great addition for those with their own bar.

Rural, unique, small batch, crafted spirits....Emphasis on small batch. They were out of Island Gold and still are. The still was silent on our tour. You would think they would have it running.Speaking of the tour, it isn't worth the drive. A very sweet young lady gave the "tour" but it was less than show and tell. The tour lasted less than 10 minutes.

We drove 15 miles north of Branson after lunch to the distillery that was nestled in the woods like an old still! The tour was great and the menu was nice, I purchased the samples of the products and was pleased. Two of the three were smooth and the last was less desirable and just not for me! Overall the experience was awesome! We have already shared with friends and family and will definitely be going back!Thanks

We were staying at the Bear Creek Bed and breakfast, and decided we wanted to try out this distillery. We took the short tour (about 10 minutes)...it was neat to see how they make it, and we sampled some moonshine (120 proof) and also had a few drinks in the bar (kinda pricey). It's worth a stop if you are in the area, the staff was friendly and the drinks were good.

We went to this distillery around noon. It wasn't a bad drive from Branson and was worth it. The shine and drinks were great. Dixie was our guide and she was funny and very knowledgeable about the distillery process and the place. The day we went it was raining and only had to walk outside for just a little bit so it is a great activity to do if you can't be outside very much. Check it out, it is excellent!!!

Nice micro distillery tucked in the woods 15 mins from Branson with tours available every couple hours. Tour is small and lasts less than 30 mins. The main area is a pub with live acoustic music playing. Good whiskey and mixed drinks available. It is kid friendly.

They only do a couple of tours a day so call ahead for the times. I wasn't able to do the tour however did indulge in some of their shine. Laura was very knowledgeable about the shine, Leslie has just started and still learning however does a great job and enjoyed the conversation!

We happened upon this distillery and enjoyed the lovely view from their back porch while sipping their amazing spirits they make on site. The bartender was warm and friendly. We enjoyed it so much we returned on the weekend when they had live music outside. Definitely worth the short drive!

Stopped by while spending week in Branson. Tasting room server (and tour guide) was very friendly and knowledgeable. "Shine" was very smooth, "blend" was excellent and rum was favorite for the ladies. Tour of the distillery rooms was interesting. This is a small operation off the beaten path but they are becoming more well known with more retail outlets. Worth the visit.

Dixie was our host during our tour and she did a great job explaining how moonshine is made and the history of it as well. After the tour in the distillery downstairs we went up to the tasting room for some treats. Tastings of all they had to offer in generous shots were given at $5 for the hubby then our girls were able to sit at a nice table for a couple of bottles of local flavored sodas ($2.50/bottle) & a picnic bag that fed all four of us for just $12. Was a fun time with friendly staff! Worth the drive out there & we will visit again the next time we're in the area!

We are always looking for unusual or odd places to go. We were able to find it easily with the GPS address on their website. Staff were friendly, upbeat, & you can tell really enjoyed working here. It is a very small distillery with only 7 employees. The bar, tasting & gift shop area are on the main floor with the distillery in the basement. You get a generous shot of moonshine & 2 different rums for $5.The owner was along for some of the tour & told us about how he got started & gave us some history. Staff very knowledgable & answered all our questions. We were very happy that we stopped here.

Highly recommend a stop here. It's about 10-15 minutes outside Branson. You get to tour the small distillery as they explain how they make their liquor. You can order cocktails at the bar while you sample some of what they produce. Worth a visit especially if you like whiskey.
