Experience Our Distillery

Distillery Bar, patio and tours, Wednesday to Sunday

Macaloney

taste the craft

Our signature Pete's Tour takes you from grain to glass in 60 minutes. Hold raw and peated barley, breathe in live peat smoke, play the mystery cask game in the barrel room and stand beside our Forsyth copper pot stills, then finish at the Distillery Bar with three guided tastings, a pint of our craft beer and a Glencairn glass to take home.

Tours & Events

Tours around our award winning distillery are bookable from Wednesday to Sunday.

If it's just a delicious whisky flight you're after, our Distillery Bar is open Wednesday to Sunday too for sit down tastings with no bookings required.

We run seasonal events throughout the year, keep your eyes peeled for availability on these as they book up quick!

Short on time? Our Sneak Peek is a 40 minute guided walk through the distillery highlights, from the grain and the peat to our copper pot stills, finishing at the Distillery Bar with two whisky tastings. Perfect for first timers and walk ins.

Distillery Bar

Enjoy a flight of whisky, sip away at a pint of beer or allow us to take you through a curated whisky flight.

We offer a selection of craft beers, brewed onsite including rotating seasonals, and numerous award-winning whiskies for you to enjoy.

Being located just South of Royal Oak means we’re one of the few places in the neighbourhood where you can enjoy exceptional drinks in an authentic whisky lounge atmosphere.

The Garry Oak Mural

Our patio now sits under The Garry Oak, a mural by Elder, painted in partnership with the Marmot Recovery Foundation and supported by the District of Saanich Community Canvas Mural Grant Program.

Garry oak meadows once covered much of Saanich. Less than 5% of that ecosystem remains. High in the Island's mountain meadows lives the Vancouver Island marmot, Canada's most endangered mammal, with fewer than 30 left in the wild in 2003. Pete, the marmot in our logo, has always been part of who we are, so backing the people bringing marmots home feels right.

Grab a seat on the patio and take it in with a dram.
