Fortville, Indiana isn’t exactly one of those places you hear people talking about a whole lot. It’s one of those small towns in Indiana that if you blink, you miss it, and it’s pretty quiet and laid-back around here at any given time. What folks don’t realize, though, is that this little town is hiding one of the downright best places to grab a drink in the entirety of the Hoosier State. Its name is as magical as its services: it’s known as the Moon Drops Distillery, and this is one brewery in Indiana you won’t want to pass up – even if you’re not enormously big on the spirits and libations themselves.
Fortville is a small town with a big secret: it's home to one of the downright best distilleries you'll ever experience.
...and yes, "experience" is certainly the word in this case. It offers not just some of the best spirits you'll ever have but also a fun, friend-making time that you'll want to keep coming back for.
Moon Drops Distillery is quite well-known in the local brewery circuit; it's a multi-time winner of various competitions and titles, including gold "medals" for its 32-times-distilled vodka.
Vodkas, of course, are far from the only spirits offered up and brewed and/or distilled here. You'll also find some of the finest whiskies, bourbons, and even moonshines - there's truly something here for everyone!

The tasting room is a blast; it's the perfect place to meet up with current friends or maybe even make some new ones.
On the weekends, you'll be pleased to find that the tasting room is accompanied by a live acoustic set. There's just something about music in its rawest form paired with a good, hearty house-distilled whiskey.
Unplug, relax, and enjoy... after all, it's not every day you get to experience this sort of thing. I mean, you could come back every day... I'm sure Moon Drops Distillery would appreciate it.
It's tough to blame you, of course. Moon Drops Distillery is a unique idea for birthdays, date nights, and just because.
Should the mood strike you, you can also book the place for an event; dreaming of a rustic wedding with a unique setting? You got it. College graduation party? Great. Birthdays? Boom. No problem. It's all up to you.
