Ewing Young Distillery
18715 Oregon 240, Newberg, OR, USA
The theme for this year's Fall Whiskey Festival is Affordable Fun and we're carrying that through to our ticket prices. Note that there are two entry times to spread out arrival numbers, and if you come after 1 pm, your tickets cost less.
NO TICKET FEES for this event--Ewing Young Distillery is covering the Ticketbud fees!
The Katie Jane Band is performing! Katie's Irish fiddle music is always cheerful, energetic, fun, and inspires happy dancing. Katie is Oregon's hottest Celtic musician and has been playing at the Fall Whiskey Festival every year since our first one in 2018, right after we opened the Distillery. We're thrilled to have her back.
We have FOUR outstanding food vendors this year!
- Good News Barbecue -- Don is one of the best BBQ pitmasters around!
- Neely's -- Yamhill County's favorite hamburgers, wings, and fries come from Neely's family food truck!
- Ray2Z's Cooking -- Rachel is a personal chef who creates amazing salads and sandwiches and also offers dairy and gluten-free options! She also makes delicious pickles and other canned delights.
- Newberg's own Kayt's Kitchen will bring an array of her famous sweets and goodies!
This is a WHISKEY festival, so we will have plenty of spirits on hand in the form of free samples (3 per person), flights, Fall-themed cocktails, and bottle sales.
If you are an Old Fashioned fan, you must try one of the two barrel-aged Old Fashioneds we've got resting in a barrel. SO GOOD.
We're releasing two new spirits this Festival:
- A delicious 101 proof 95% Wheat Whiskey that is a combination of a seven-year-old and six-year barrels. Another excellent sipping whiskey from Ewin Young.
- Our first rum: Old Coxe Barrel Aged Rum, rich and delicious at 86 proof. Why did we call it Old Coxe? Well, it's named in honor of one of the first South Pacific islanders to arrive in the wild Oregon Country. Pick up a bottle and read the story on the back label.
Other Fun Stuff
Just for fun, we'll be selling white Ewing Young t-shirts that you can have tie-dyed at the Festival by the lovely ladies Lisette and Marissa. Just $15 for the shirt and $5 to have it tie-dyed.
We'll have fresh inventory of Whiskey Weather and Ewing Young shirts, hoodies, and hats for purchase.
There will be Musical instruments for kids to play! Katie, who is also a music teacher, is bringing her well-loved (used) instruments for the kids to play along with her.
Kids 12 and under get a free pumpkin to paint! We'll have aprons and old t-shirts to protect their clothing, but they will still get paint on themselves. Dress them accordingly.
Glenda of Nana's Face Painting will be doing face painting. She offers a wide range of choices and prices, starting at $5.
We're setting up a photo area for selfies and family portraits.
Ewing Young himself (reincarnated as Doug Root) will be in full regalia for photo and storytelling opportunities. Rumor has it he may lead an expedition to the Ewing Young Oak and gravesite and entertain you with Ewing Young stories! 🤩 Doug is a great storyteller and has an encyclopedic knowledge of the Ewing Young saga. The story telling and trips to the tree will be around 12:00 and 2:00.
And last but not least, we're working on some scrumptious cocktails and mocktails with a Fall theme.
RAIN OR SHINE! We're Oregonians, after all! If it rains, we'll throw up the tents, put on our hooded raincoats, stoke up the fire pits, and party on. But, rain or shine, please wear sensible shoes! It's a farm, the gophers have been busy, and the ground can be uneven.
Please join us--it's going to be a blast!
Note: Visitors will park in the Mares & Foals field on the right as you come onto the Farm. You will have a short walk over unpaved, uneven ground to get to the Festival. For those with who need handicap access, please email info at ewingyoungdistillerydotcom BEFORE THE 13th. (Ticketbud will not allow us to enter our email address properly, but you can figure it out.) Highly unlikely we will see emails sent the day of the Festival.
EWING YOUNG FARM IS HOME TO OUR DISTILLERY, A BUSY VET PRACTICE, AND A PRIVATE RESIDENCE. AS A FARM, THERE ARE HAZARDS EVERYWHERE. PLEASE GO STRAIGHT FROM YOUR CAR TO THE FESTIVAL (AND BACK AGAIN) AND STAY WITHIN THE DISTILLERY'S AREAS (MARKED BY SIGNS) DURING YOUR VISIT. NO SIDE TRIPS TO SEE HORSES, ANIMALS, THE TREE, OR WALKING AROUND THE POND. STAY OUT OF THE STORAGE AREAS AND HAY BARN AND DON'T MESS WITH THE SAWMILL. THANK YOU!
