Boot Hill Distillery

Boot Hill Distillery gives an old civic building a productive new use. The 1929 municipal structure on West Spruce Street once housed the fire department, police, jail and courtroom. Its conversion lets visitors encounter that architectural history within a working distillery rather than an empty monument.

The business connects its spirits with grain grown on the Kelman family’s western Kansas farm. A guided visit follows the production sequence from milling and mashing to distillation and bottling. That agricultural link gives the experience a regional context, moving the story beyond the bar and back toward the fields.

The operator’s tour description includes the former firehouse barrel room and a jail space adapted for events. A guided tasting forms part of the booked visit. The public tasting room is a separate way to encounter the business, so opening hours for the bar should not be taken as a guarantee that a production tour is available at that moment.

Tours require reservations and are advertised for Fridays and Saturdays. The site’s pages differ in the sessions they list, making the confirmed booking time the appropriate reference. Contact the distillery about access requirements and the suitability of the tour for a particular group. Its appeal combines a preserved municipal building, a contemporary agricultural enterprise and a close look at production.
