Mississippi River Distilling Company & Celebration Center
Occupying two historic, riverside buildings along the main drag, the Mississippi River Distilling Company and Celebration Center have both been refurbished to provide a modern yet rustic feel to all visitors. The Cocktail House offers a menu of craft spirits with spectacular views of the Mighty Mississippi, while the Celebration Center provides plenty of space for weddings, parties, or corporate events with remnants of the original 1845 butcher building incorporated throughout.
