The story of Stranahan’s began when volunteer firefighter Jess Graber responded to a neighbor’s barn fire in 1998. Unbeknownst to him, that barn belonged to Woody Creek local George Stranahan, a long-time brewery owner and whiskey connoisseur. When the fire settled, the two discovered a shared passion for the Colorado outdoors and a good pour of fine whiskey.

Stranahan’s American Single Malt Whiskey is crafted from four simple ingredients: Colorado barley, proprietary yeast, the purest Rocky Mountain spring water, and patience.
