I live just down the road from the Bethel Park location so I’ve stopped in a decent amount of times and I always recommend them to people. My favorite flavor is probably the blackberry pie but I love stopping in for their slushies. It’s worth it to stop in and see what they have seasonally because there’s always something new. Plus, the people who work there have always been very nice and helpful.

I had a problem with an online order and they went ABOVE AND BEYOND to help me! I am so grateful and they really do care about their customers! They're moonshine is real smooth and delicious as well as reasonably priced. You're making a HUGE mistake if you do not try it out.

Became one of those person's traveling out on Christmas Eve day and swung by the shop, was shocked to see them open and until 9pm! Picked up a few smaller sizes to see if I would like them or not. Was able to sample a cinnamon flavored one and it had a good flavor to it and minimal burn/warmth even at 100 proof. Will probably be checking in with them here and there for different flavors

My review will be based more on the products, and not on the facility... Probably not the best place for it, but it's the place I have available to me. A friend of mine visited the location and purchased a large sampling of the entire lineup, many in 50ml samples, to bring back for a group of us to sample. This group of friends and I meet up quite often to sample various Bourbons, Scotches, various whiskies, beers, etc. We are vary analytical, not overly critical, but we have fun comparing during our various themed nights and usually all have a different opinion about what we're drinking, which adds to the fun. Well, then we had a "Moonshine Night" this week, and my friend supplied 25 of your "moonshines"... Here are the general results, followed by my personal summarized notes about the flavors: First, do NOT purchase anything outside the Root Beer, Birthday Cake, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Chocolate Peanut Butter (I didn't care for personally). The supposed "Base Corn Whiskey" (150 proof) flavor was sampled as well. If that is the starting point, then I can understand the next comments... Almost all flavors had weird off flavor, including the base corn sample. Every single sample was full of an oily mouth feel from what we believe were from the added flavorings... Including the Base Corn Whiskey, which should have had 0 additives, so not sure what that was all about. Almost all flavors, even the palatable ones, tasted overly sweet, like those candy concentrate flavorings used in candy making were dumped straight into an alcohol solution, then packaged and sold. Given that the 4 of us sampling the full catalog all were in agreement on what we liked and hated, I can't in good conscience blame my personal palate on this one... I'm leaving 2 stars for the fact that there were a few palatable samples in the mix, but wish I could give more of a 1.5 because of all the ones we suffered through. I genuinely was excited to sample all these, but I'm more upset that my buddy paid quite a price for us to sample these, and there were definitely more "miss" than "hits". See attached photos for my sampling notes, since I exceeded the review character limit.

Pro: Staff was nice Con: Everything Else The location is just a storefront with nothing else to see. They only allow 6 samples that barely coat the bottom of the small sample cup. So I bought 50ml or more of all 25 flavors to bring back to a group. Overall rating was pretty low. We were all in agreement there were only 4 we would like (root beer, birthday cake, cinnamon toast, choc pb) and that they were all overly sweetened, had a very oily texture, and the smell and/or flavor were all not as expected based on name. 80% of the group noted an unidentified strong and unpleasant chemical taste in the majority of the samples. Even the clear moonshine was far from expectations. Was really hoping to like this place more, especially with all the flavors, but I don't anticipate a return trip.
