Enjoying outdoor patios

while the weather is nice At this time of year, multi-coloured umbrellas invade sidewalks and courtyards, while bistros, restaurants and ice-cream parlours compete with each other in enticing passersby to take a break. It’s not a hard goal to achieve, especially when the sun is shining. After all, one of the most enjoyable pleasures of summer is to relax on a sunny outdoor restaurant patio. Morning, noon and late into the night, patios are great places for sitting around with friends or family in a relaxed atmosphere, soaking up the sun or enjoying a warm summer breeze. And there’s something for everyone, as patios offer endless possibilities; you can enjoy outdoor dining in the heart of the city or tucked away in a bucolic country setting, on a roof or in a garden, in lively surroundings or a peaceful spot. There are so many interesting discoveries to make all summer long.

Hogan’s HoocH
crystal springs gin
circle square Vodka
Hogan’s Hooch is a blend of barley, red wheat, and rye. Producing Hogan’s Hooch takes about a week, from grain to glass, and each step of production occurs right on site at our Distillery in downtown Missoula. At 90 proof you will experience a buttery nose, lightly coated palate and smooth warm finish.
Crystal Springs Gin is the newest spirit to join our Craft Spirit library. Carefully crafted from Montana’s finest red wheat, the base spirit is a crisp beginning. The final stage of distillation introduces our lineup of juniper and botanicals. Finally the finished spirit is cut to 90 proof using water sourced directly from Crystal Springs just south of Havre, Montana. Juniper forward with a clean citrus and floral finish, Crystal Springs Gin promises a refreshing twist on an old classic. Enjoy as a Martini or find that perfect gin cocktail…Gin and Tonic on the deck at the lake sounds wonderful!
Distilled from Potatoes, Circle Square Vodka delights with subtle fruity noise, light palate and smooth finish. Enjoy one of the country’s few Craft Potato vodkas.Family lore suggests that our paternal grandfather coined the term “Circle Square” in reference to the northern part of Missoula’s downtown that surrounded the Northern Pacific Rail Depot.
