Lakeward Spirits

The Barrel Factory is where you'll find the production facility, tasting room, and retail outlet for this craft distillery where the theme — stewardship of Buffalo's local water resources — is reflected in everything from the company's name, to their partnership with Buffalo Niagara Riverkeeper in developing eco-friendly, conservation-minded water use policies for the distillery, to their signature spirit, "Grain Canyon" vodka, named in homage to the historic grain elevators that line the Buffalo River just a stone's throw from here.
