Experience whiskey like never before at Whiskey Unexpected, an intimate, seated tasting curated by the Texas Whiskey Festival. This is your chance to savor rare and exceptional whiskeys-some never before released, others nearly impossible to find again.

Instead of standing in long lines, you'll enjoy community-style tables where distillers bring the whiskey to you. This format creates the perfect setting to slow down, explore each pour, and engage with the people who craft them. It’s part tasting, part storytelling, and fully immersive.

What to Expect

Exceptional Whiskeys - Rare releases, distillery exclusives, and unique experiments you won't find on store shelves.

Participating Distilleries - Balcones Distilling, Iron Wolf Ranch and Distillery, IronRoot Republic, Maverick Whiskey, Ranger Creek Brewing and Distilling, Rebecca Creek Whiskey, Sixth Street Spirits, and more to be announced.

Seated Format - Relax at a shared table while distillers rotate from guest to guest. Bring friends and purchase tickets together to ensure you sit at the same table.

Engaging Conversations - Learn the stories behind each whiskey, from mash bill to barrel aging, straight from the makers themselves.
