CANNED AND DRAFT BEER
Shelter Distilling is where tradition, innovation, and adventure meet. Rooted in the rugged beauty of the Mountain West, we craft premium spirits and beers using pure alpine snowmelt water and locally sourced grains from Colorado’s San Luis Valley.
Driven by curiosity and craft, our distillers and brewers create bold, one-of-a-kind whiskeys, bourbons, gins, agaves, canned cocktails, and canned craft beer, each inspired by the mountains that surround us.
At Shelter, every pour tells a story of exploration, passion, and the spirit of the Mountain West.
