We're not entirely comfortable with the idea of scrapple-flavored vodka, but everything else produced at this buzzed-about distillery is on point. Housed in a 1940s movie theater in downtown Smyrna, the Painted Stave produces spirits – vodka, gin, bourbon, rye – with ingredients sourced from local farms. Stop by for a tasting ($5 for 5 tastes) or a tour ($12).
