AROUND TOWN
Owensboro’s entertainment options extend beyond downtown. Here are a few local favorites:
GREEN RIVER DISTILLERY TOURS 10 Distillery Rd. | 270-691-9001
When O.Z. Tyler bought the former Medley Distillery in 2014, they refurbished the dilapidated distillery into what has become the fourth largest independent bourbon distillery and the 11th stop on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail™. Recently renamed Green River Distilling Company, the distillery offers tours Monday through Saturday which includes a tasting and ends with a stroll through the gift shop. With an annual capacity now exceeding 90,000 barrels, a tour of Green River Distilling covers every aspect of whiskey production, from grain to mash to beer to distillate to barrels of whiskey. Visit GreenRiverDistilling.com for more information.
