You find the door…

A man stands guard.
You give the password.
He steps aside.

You’re led by candlelight through underground tunnels… the air cool, the walls whispering.
Something lingers down here… and it’s not just the whiskey.

Then the music hits. 🥃✨
Laughter. Glasses clinking.
A speakeasy hidden among the barrels—alive for one night only.

May 23rd
6–9PM CT | 7–10PM ET
$65 | Only 75 spots

Dress 1920s.
Message us to reserve your place… if you’re brave enough👻

Step back in time for an unforgettable evening at the dam… if you dare. We invite you to an exclusive Prohibition-era experience inside the historic dam — a place known for both its spirits… and its spirits.
Guests will be guided through underground tunnels into a private speakeasy setting among the barrels and distillery… where not everything that lingers has a heartbeat.
Ticket includes:
A handcrafted cocktail or mocktail
A curated grazing table
Live jazz music
An immersive, one-night-only atmosphere
(Bring cash or card for additional drinks — concessions will be open outside like usual)

Saturday, May 23rd
6–9PM Central/7-10PM Eastern
Tickets are $65 | Limited to 75 guests
Reservations required. Message us to secure your spot.
No refunds.

Show up decked out in your best 1920s attire!
Flappers, suits, pearls — we want to see it all.
Just a heads up… this is a 113-year-old dam, not a ballroom 😉
If it’s been raining, you might find a few puddles or drips along the way.
That’s not a flaw… that’s part of the charm.
And who knows… you might not be the only one wandering the halls that night. 👀

Something BIG is brewing at Dam Whiskey…

As we gear up for the upcoming season, we’re dreaming, planning, and lining up experiences that go way beyond a great pour and live music.

Think:
Lantern tours in the dam
A Prohibition-era party
Car shows on the grounds
Murder mystery nights
Farmers markets & local vendors
Special food events & pairings
PLUS the live music you already love

Every visit this season will feel a little different — more stories, more community, more memories made right here at the dam.

We can’t wait to welcome you back for a season full of flavor, fun, and unforgettable nights.
Stay tuned… the best is yet to come.
