This is quite the place! They run tours all day Saturday but they also have their "Ready Room" available on Friday evenings. I wish they were open other days (the bartender explained that it is difficult for their operation to be open on Sundays but they have looked into it).
The inside is industrial-chic. Like many swanky businesses in Baltimore, it makes use of an old factory but they've somehow made it warm and inviting. Seriously, where did they find those super comfy couches?!
Drinks - Old Line specializes in two spirits: rum and whiskey. Don't be fooled; they have varieties of those two options in terms of aging and blending process for a grand total of five products. When I went, $15 got us a flight of every spirit they produce - and they don't skimp! I thought it would be a little 1/2 oz tasting, but this was just shy of a full shot each, so I ended up sharing with my companions. Speaking of flights, they also offer flights by style. For example, if you are more of a rum person, they have a flight of their rums as well as some from other local distilleries. Ditto for the whiskeys. A nice touch promoting competitors in the spirit of... well, spirits!
The cocktails were great. I got a daiquiri - a proper daiquiri with lime and rum. Not to hate on a spiked strawberry smoothie, but this is the OG daiquiri (and the better one, IMHO). I also split the Liberty Risk, made with their Navy Strength cask rum, with my companions. They limit you to one because it is STRONG. Suffice it to say I ended up staying a little longer than originally planned. Overall, they have six regular cocktails and one or two specials. They also offer a couple of local beers on tap, but we came for the spirits.
They sell all of their spirits on site as well as some bar tool knick knacks; I walked out with a bottle of their Single Malt whiskey. The prices aren't too bad for what it is and service is fast and friendly. I look forward to coming back!
