Breweries, Wineries & Distilleries

Little Rock's craft craft alcohol scene is among the best in the South. Local breweries, each with their unique take on fermentation, call the area home. Rock Town Distillery, the state's first (legal) distillery to open since Prohibition, is a must-visit for a craft-cocktail made with its award-winning lineup of whiskeys, vodkas, and gins. To the city's west, various wineries explore the terroir of Central Arkansas and offer tastings and tours of their scenic properties.

Little Rock’s brewery scene is hoppy

(We mean…hopping.)

Here’s a little trivia for next time you’re at the bar – Little Rock has almost as many breweries per capita as Seattle, Washington (arguably the Mecca of American craft brewing). Plus, it doesn’t rain all the time here.

Whether you like a hefeweizen, an IPA, a pale ale, a stout, a porter, a Vienna lager, a doppelbock, triple or even a quadruple ale, there’s a craft brewery in Little Rock with a brew just for you.

Little Rock’s craft brewing scene dates back to 1991, when the Legislature had the wisdom to make brewpubs legal. In 1993, Vino’s Pizzeria became Vino’s Brewpub, the city’s first (and still one of our favorites).

Best of all, you don’t have to be a big spender to enjoy truly gourmet meals and beers here. From neighborhood diners to white-tablecloth fine dining establishments, “local” is a thing here. A BIG thing. So pull up a barstool, order a flight, a pint, a growler or a crowler(a unique two-pint can of your favorite draft) and dive into Little Rock’s delicious craft beer scene.
