🥃🔥 VIP Access: Private Wolf Point Distilling Tour & Tasting Flight #2! 🍸🏭
An Insider-Led, Behind-the-Scenes Experience You Can't Book on Your Own!
Last one was such a success we're doing it again — this time for everyone who missed out on the March tour! 🙌🎉
One of our own members, Natalie Soto, works at Wolf Point Distilling and scored us exclusive private access just for our group — and she'll be leading the tour alongside Victoria, the Distillery Manager. This is a rare chance to explore Wolf Point from the inside with the people who actually make it happen!
This is NOT a standard public tour — it's an intimate, VIP-style experience with direct access to the distilling team, insider stories, and plenty of time for questions, tastings & conversation in a relaxed small-group setting. A great chance to go behind the scenes at one of Chicago's coolest small-batch distilleries, right near Union Park on the Near West Side! 🏙️

🏛️ ABOUT WOLF POINT DISTILLING
Wolf Point Distilling is a Chicago-based craft distillery producing small-batch bourbon, rye whiskey, gin, vodka & specialty infusions. Each spirit is inspired by true stories from Chicago history, with hand-drawn illustrations on every bottle bringing those stories to life! 🎨
Named for Wolf Point — the historic meeting place of the Chicago River's branches and once the heart of early Chicago, home to the city's first tavern, theater & river crossings. Every bottle connects the spirit inside to a moment from Chicago's past. 🌊🏙️
