Why Become a Founder?
Because every great distillery begins with a small group of believers.
Before there was a nation, there were taverns.
Before there were laws, there were conversations.
The 1776 Founders Club honors that tradition — a circle of people who believe in craft, community, and the power of a good drink shared with good company.
Your name will live inside Empire State Distillers for as long as the doors stay open.
This is not about what you receive.
It’s about what you become part of.
Beyond the Barrel is where our story continues; a place to honor the spirit of service, share the craft behind every pour, and spotlight the people and purpose driving Battle Rattle Spirits.
It’s not just a blog. It’s the heart of our community; built by those who serve, for those who appreciate what it means to serve something greater.
