Welcome to the Show

Lincoln's First Legal Distillery

In 2020 we threw open the doors on 11,000 square feet of pure spectacle.

Sideshow Spirits was born from the same Sandhills grit as Kinkaider — pioneers of the Lincoln spirits scene, distilling bourbon, whiskey and handcrafted cocktails from scratch. The Showroom, the Tasting Room, and the best distillery tour in the state all live under one roof.

And when the lights go down, a second door opens a few blocks away — the Speakeasy. Same family, same craft, a whole lot more mystery.
