SAn antonio's Brewstillery

Ranger Creek is a combined brewery/distillery proudly located in San Antonio, TX. Established in 2010, we make beer and whiskey in our “brewstillery”, and we make it by hand one batch at a time with lots of love and attention.

handcrafted texas Whiskey

Award-winning Texas bourbon, single malt and rye whiskey. Grain-to-glass spirits made in small batches using Texas ingredients.

RANGER CREEK .36 TEXAS STRAIGHT BOURBON

.36 Texas Straight Bourbon is our flagship whiskey, handcrafted in small batches, aged in traditional large oak casks and matured under the Texas sun. It’s an award-winning sipping bourbon that’s also cocktail friendly.

Originally crafted by our Co-Founder and Head Distiller emeritus, TJ Miller, each batch follows our grain-to-glass philosophy. Texas corn is milled, mashed, fermented, and our whiskey is distilled and aged at our San Antonio distillery, That same traditional process is carried on today by our current head distiller, Josh Gardner, and assistant distiller Tim Crofton.

RANGER CREEK .36 TEXAS Cask Strength

This is Texas Bourbon in all its grandeur. Directly out of the barrel. Uncut. Unfiltered.

Our .36 Texas Cask Strength Bourbon is a rare release, using only a few barrels hand-selected by our head distiller. Handcrafted at our San Antonio distillery, aged and matured in the Texas heat, this whiskey is a unique and bold expression with Texas terroir.

The finish is smooth. The flavor is bold. The craftsmanship is uncompromising.

RANGER CREEK .44 TEXAS RYE

Ranger Creek .44 Texas Rye Whiskey is made from 100% malted rye and matured in our used .36 Texas Straight Bourbon barrels. The process highlights the complexity of the rye grain, resulting in a spirit-forward whiskey. It pours a rich gold with a nose of cinnamon, mint and toffee. At 94 proof, the taste is strong but mellow with notes of clove and spice. The taste ultimately gives way to a clean, warming finish with lingering notes of fresh bread.

True and authentic to our brand, .44 Texas Rye is a premium whiskey made from grain to glass in our hometown of San Antonio, Texas. Enjoy it neat or on the rocks. It also works great in a classic Old Fashioned or Manhattan cocktail.

RANGER CREEK RUM

This original rum was inspired by the positive response to our limited small-batch release. Made with the finest molasses and twice distilled in copper pots, this rum offers a smooth yet complex flavor profile. Our approach to crafting spirits is forged in authenticity and the desire to create products Texans are proud to call their own. Cheers!
