The first licensed distillery in Albany since Prohibition — founded in early 2011 by co-owners John Curtin and Rick Sicari, beginning operations in July 2012. A small-craft distillery in Albany's historic Warehouse District using both modern and traditional methods. Whiskeys (bourbon, rye, malt) are released under the Ironweed label — named for William Kennedy's Albany-set novel. Rums are released under the Quackenbush label, named for Albany's Quackenbush Square — an unaged style inspired by Albany's original 18th-century distillery from a period recipe. Collaboration releases with Nine Pin Ciderworks and Death Wish Coffee. A separate ADCo Bar & Bottle Shop sits down the street at 75 Livingston Ave in a building dating to 1844 (former horse stable, Nabisco factory). Tours of the distillery by appointment.
