Established in June 2024, Dust Bowl Distillery finds its home within the expansive Dust Bowl Brewing Company facility in Turlock, California.  At the helm once again is Brewmaster, Don Oliver, who has been honing his distilling knowledge over the years. 

The boutique distillery features a 140-liter Carl still. The system was enhanced by the addition of a Vodka column and Gin basket from Minnetonka Brewing Equipment. The configuration allows for a broad range of spirits to be produced.

As a nod to the company’s brand roots, Dust Bowl Distillery launched its portfolio with Original Moonshine. Crisp and clear, Original Moonshine is an 80 proof / 40% ABV spirit distilled from corn, malted barley and wheat. 

The company first launched into cocktails with Moonshine slushies during the summer weather and shortly followed with a specially curated cocktail menu featuring Moonshine hand-crafted libations with only the freshest ingredients. 

 

In December 2024, Dust Bowl Distillery added Dry Gin and Gin, expanding the portfolio for the most discerning cocktail lovers. Crafted from scratch using a malted barley wash, Dry Gin is a traditional, juniper-forward gin with balanced floral, citrus, and spice notes. This classic profile makes it a versatile favorite for gin enthusiasts. Complementing it is Gin, a vibrant, cistrus-forward spirit infused with the bright flavors of lime, grapefruit, and orange. Together, these gins offer unique flavor profiles and a smooth 40% ABV / 80 proof. 

750ml Original Moonshine, Dry Gin and Gin bottle sales are available at the Turlock Taproom. 

Great Spirits Born of Hard Times.
