Fort Hamilton Distillery

Founded in 2016 by Alex Clark and Amy Grindeland, Fort Hamilton Distillery is located in Industry City, Brooklyn, NY. The distillery is committed to crafting high-quality spirits that embody the rich heritage and vibrant culture of New York. With a focus on craftsmanship and sustainability, Fort Hamilton Distillery continually innovates while respecting traditional distilling methods. Fort Hamilton is on a mission to recreate the original whiskey style of America, New York Rye. Fort Hamilton Single Barrel Rye was the first bottling and was inspired by a pre-prohibition era traditional 90% rye, 10% malted barley mash bill. Along the way, Fort Hamilton has extended into bartender-friendly Double Barrel bottlings of rye and bourbon, as well as producing the revolutionary Fort Hamilton New World Gin that’s bursting with fresh watermelon, cucumber and citrus and is inspired by the watermelon patch where the Battle of Brooklyn commenced and a NY corn-based vodka called Fortress Vodka, alongside other innovative bottlings. Fort Hamilton Single Barrel Bourbon released in Spring 2024 completes the core line up.
