The Future of Real Spirits
The Austin-American Statesman recently came out to check out the latest on Real Spirits, the future distilling arm of Real Ale Brewing Co.
“Real Ale Brewing, the 19-year-old Blanco brewery that Brad Farbstein took over in 1998, has also decided to make the leap into creating a beverage rather different from the one it’s already perfected.
“A brewery is obviously a natural first step in a distillery, since you’re essentially making beer and then distilling the wash down to make a spirit,” Farbstein says. “Beer will always be our main focus, but I’ve always been interested in spirits as well. Real Spirits is something that’s been in the making for almost 20 years now.”
