Review: Fortress Vodka
Fortress Vodka is produced at Fort Hamilton Distillery in Brooklyn New York. Alex Clark and his wife Amy Grindeland opened their distillery in the Industry City Complex, and started barreling whiskey in 2016. Industry City opened in 2013, and the 6 million square foot complex houses 550 companies in the former Bush Terminal. Construction of Bush Terminal began in the 1890’s and continued into the 1900’s. It was the largest multi tenant industrial property in the US.

The spirit is carbon filtered over activated charcoal then bottled at 80 proof. Read more
