Standard Wormwood Distillery & Cocktail Bar

Industry City Gem! Hands down, By Far has the best drinks I've tasted in a long time. Perfect balance, flavor, and strength — they don’t play around. Major shoutout to bartender Toruss for the vibe, the craft, and the precision. This spot is a must if you're in the area!

Located within Industry City, this eclectic and vibrant colored distillery is crafting up eye catching cocktails with seasonal inspired fresh ingredients all made in- house. They have the outdoor/ indoor bar concept which is nice for taking in the surrounding atmosphere. We all enjoyed a Fall Margarita with Mezcal packing a punch. The bartender was very knowledgeable and super friendly. The cocktails were priced great surprisingly. This was a great starting point for a fun girls night out in town.

Excellent. Many fine takes on classic cocktails and also innovative new cocktails, such as an amaro-based hot toddy. The "agave spirit" tastes quite like a well-balanced mezcal. Their absinthe is one of the best that I have had, with forward orange notes and excellent complexity.

As far as I know, this is the only full cocktail bar that distills everything on-site! Gin, rum, whiskey, and even very pure, non-glycated (no jarabes (syrups) tequila--technically not tequila as that is a regional geographic designation but spirit of the agave plant. This is an absolute gem of not just Brooklyn, or even NYC, but a really amazing world-class cocktail bar. I'm still processing how this is not like a major attraction....Oh well, I'm not going to be the one to let the secret out....wait....

Awesome spot! The summer margarita was delish and great ambiance. Wasn’t too busy when we went Saturday afternoon and loved how relaxed it was

Ughh, I just paid for one of the nastiest margaritas I've ever had (their summer margarita) As I tried to explain to the bartender how I didn't like it, he kept interrupting me. It took at least an hour but I finally finished it 🤢

We were pleasantly surprised to find this place after walking through the Industry City courtyard. We were lured in by the sign out front that promised a hot drink on a snowy day. We ordered the spiced hot cider and the Adirondack coffee. The staff were friendly. This is a great place to hang out. We also enjoyed the live music.

W. O. W. Great Adult Vibe, Great Ambiance, GREAT HOOCH!!! Everything is made in house down to the liquor. Our Spring Margarita was Exceptional 😋🍸🍸

Located inside Brooklyn industry city. It's charming brewery w great cocktails too in addition to the beers. Live music on Saturdays. Great place to hang, have a drink, listen to live music. Parking is terrible at all times I've been in industry city, so be warned

The bartender is super knowledgeable and able to help you pick a drink no matter what! I got the summer margarita and it was refreshing and very smooth. They have so many cocktails ... I don't know why you would elsewhere ... this lane has so many options ...

**WARNING, check your credit card because they added a $7 tip to my two drinks that I did not add myself. I barely tipped since I wasn't happy with the service*** Drinks were good but enough to get scammed on my credit card!!! Came here on a lively Saturday night. I got two drinks. One was really good (spring shrub) but the other was just a bit too sweet (Persian milk punch) I only tried a sip and when I asked to switch it out the bartender was extremely rude. He grabbed my drink and put it down with a sigh. Then rudely he said alright what do you want and reluctantly made me a new cocktail in a plastic cup... seems like it was just to get back at me. Mind you this is a nice sit down cocktail place with a live band... Really disappointed in this experience as this vibe is really cute! But asking to switch out a drink is standard issue especially if the drink isn't to my liking / too sweet.

This place is a hidden gem. If you're intro balanced drinks with complex flavors, this place will blow your mind. I cannot get enough of the Summer Shrub and Summer Margarita. If you come here, take a look behind the bar and check out an ocean of infused spirits and cordials that are made in house. I would have never thought I would be lucky enough to get drinks this good so close to home!

Vibe is fun, drinks were literally awful. We ordered white Negronis which tasted like something you'd see the perfumer at Le Labo bottling. When we unanimously, and very timidly brought back to the bartender, he argued with us if we'd ever had a white Negroni before and offered to put limoncello in them to make them less herbal. Dude I basically have a drinking problem I've had like four digits worth of various Negronis in my life. Maybe this white Negroni is a wake up call? For $150+ for two rounds of rough drinks and the attitude, won't be back.

Cuuuuuute boys. Great drink. Incredible Muzaks on sat and Sundays. Wow. Wowowowowo. Fantastic spot. Who dun it better. No one. Damn. Excellent frosè.

went for the first two drinks on the menu which were the safest bets considering it was a new place and there was jazz. this place inside industry city is one you should try considering there are options for food scattered through the building as well as some sights to see. the rum runner had a fruity taste and was one that had the taste from the rum carry over. if you add some water to the drink it becomes a spiked lemonade that is lighter in taste but just as refreshing with the taste of pineapple. the winter margarita is one that had the usual taste but the hint of mulato pepper can be tasted and is very strong lemon wise but still good.

What a wonderful cocktail bar in the heart of Industry City! Really interesting, fun drinks and, get this, at reasonable prices (whhhat?!)! It's a beautiful space with handcrafted cocktails made with love by the guys who literally make their own spirits. Don't miss this spot when you're in the neighborhood!

There are no better cocktails in NYC! These are drinks deserving of all the awards. It's not anything I've ever experienced before. At Standard Wormwood a bartender doesn't mix drinks. They're prepared! It's like a cocktail kitchen here and the bartender is the chef. They create their own distillations and macerations. Every ingredient in every cocktail is one they made. And a lot of their ingredients come from their family farm. It's wild! The Rye Smash and Summer Margarita were out of this world. I don't even know how to describe this place accurately. Just go!

I love gin. I love whiskey. So obviously, I love Standard Wormwood as well. Got some nice walking cocktails at the window. The Wormwood Rye was pretty good. And best part is you can get 750mL of it at a time!

We stop by on a warm Saturday. The place is really nice. Nice light decorations outside. The staff is so personable. We tried the sezarac, gin and tonic and the negroni. Everything was nice. Will definitely return.

As a cocktail snob I was really impressed with this place. They're a rare vertically integrated cocktail bar that produces their own spirits, and the flavors come through in a really big way, making their drinks very unique in taste. Highly recommend if you happen to find yourself in that part of Brooklyn.

We ended up popping in for a couple drinks while walking around industry city. I had their spritz as well as a cocktail with rye and mint. They've got plenty of seating here. The staff is attentive and helpful.

Great drink on a beautiful weather. Not too many people on a Saturday afternoon. Social distance is not an issue. There are a lot of chair and benches to sit or you can just stand around. With some many beautiful artworks on the wall, you can spend you lr day just watching and walking around the industry.

This is my go-to drink spot on Friday nights in the summer. Industry City has live music going on all over and this place has indoor and outdoor and open-windowed seating where you get the benefit of A/C on the outside and the benefit of fresh air on the inside. The drinks are all made with care. Literally a vertically-integrated bar that creates the liquor in upstate New York and then the cocktails to best showcase them. Great service from the founders/owners themselves. Highly recommended.

Love the Rye and Amaro, always great cocktails. Had a dr.power and rye. Service is great as well and very knowledgeable.

There were two people when we walked in. The bartender didn't acknowledge for a cool minute. When we asked him if it was possible to close the window (it's currently 59 degrees but it's housed in between building so the wind was really intense) His response "I'd prefer not to" So we left the empty the bar where they probably could've used customers. We were excited to try this place. And now we won't be back. And now the word of mouth will be "the drinks may or may not be good but the service is...lacking"

Great cocktails! Thanks for being open! Excellent and friendly bartender. We enjoy coming here!
