Brother Justus isn’t just another whiskey distillery — it’s a testament to innovation and deep, unexpected roots. With a unique “Cold-Peated” process and a backstory tied to Prohibition-era monks, this Minneapolis-based whiskey brand has captured attention with its bold take on American single malts. From barley-sourced ingredients to locally sourced peat, Brother Justus offers a truly American whiskey experience.
But it’s not just the process that sets them apart. The founder, Phil Steger, combines a law degree, theology background, and a fascination with ancient manuscripts into a vision for whiskey that breaks tradition. Their whiskeys are young, aged only a year or two, but deliver immense flavor, focusing on quality over time.
