🍊 Pathfinder Farm Distillery at the Maryland State Fair – Orange Crushes, Moonshine Tastings & Bottle Sales
Hey there, it’s Uncle Nate from Pathfinder Farm Distillery…
This year, we’re serving up Maryland’s favorite summer drink — Orange Crushes — done the Pathfinder way. Fresh oranges are muddled right in the cup, shaken with vodka, topped with ice and lemon-lime soda for a sparkling, citrusy finish. We’ll be mixing them big, 32 oz fair-style cups, with optional flavors like Blueberry, Peach, Strawberry, Vanilla, and Watermelon. Alcohol-free versions available, too!
🥃 Moonshine Tastings To Go – Exclusive to the Fair
Once you’ve cooled off with a Crush, swing by for a Tasting To Go — 2 oz samples of our handcrafted spirits. Enjoy them on-site only, right here at the Fair. Our lineup includes:
🌽 Red Corn Moonshine – Sweet, nutty, smooth with a buttery finish. Made from 100% Bloody Butcher corn we grow ourselves, with a single red corn kernel in every jar.
🥃 Bloody Butcher Bourbon – Single-barrel, distilled slow in our American-made copper still with Appalachian spring water. 100% farm-grown Bloody Butcher corn.
🍎 Apple Pie Moonshine – Fresh apples, brown sugar, and a cinnamon stick in every jar. Cozy, comforting, like grandma’s kitchen.
🫐 Blueberry Moonshine – Juicy, sun-ripened blueberries, a touch of sugar, and just a hint of vanilla. Bold yet balanced.
🍊 Orange Cranberry Moonshine – Bright, tart, and sweet. Fresh orange slices, dried cranberries, and a touch of sugar for year-round cheer.
