Colts Neck Stillhouse — Local services in Colts Neck Township

About one year ago, on a chilly rainy lousy day... We missed our turn and instead happened to stumble upon an interesting blue building with the word "Muckleyeye" written whimsically across the front with "Stillhouse" included. My interest was piqued.

Going in, we were warmly greeted with smiles and a staff eager to please. We tried a sampling of spirits, artisanally created on site. Bourbon, Rye, Vodka, American Gin, and East Coast Rum. Each sip was more impressive than the last. And to this day, the ONLY rum, gin, and vodka I not only can drink at room temperature straight, but enjoy to do so as well.

But it gets better. To display the depth and dynamic flavors of the spirits, the staff artfully created inspired and delicious cocktails. We were hooked.

We've been back countless times, with many friends in tow. Each time we are greeted just as warmly as the first. The cocktails change seasonally, and have become something we look forward to exploring regularly.

Rightfully so, Colt's Neck Stillhouse has become quite the popular spot. Their spirits are distributed and accessable from our local liquor stores, but we still go every opportunity we have.

The skill and personalities of the staff are second to none. The cocktails are always amazing. The atmosphere is inviting. You can't go wrong going here.

For the naysayers who've left negative feedback... It's important to know what CNS offers. They are NOT a "bar" in the traditional sense. They are not open until 2am with sports on every wall. They are a craft, small batch distillery creating amazing spirits, and showcasing their spirits through artfully inspired cocktails. They are brand ambassadors of the highest caliber. Down to earth, fun, adventurous, and knowledgeable of their products.

Myself, my family, and my friends are hooked, and we'll be patrons for MANY...

Mike and his crew have put together another outstanding location with professional staff, and expertly crafted drinks. I've been a tremendous fan of Mr. Simko ever since 'The Dillinger Room' in New Brunswick, but I've got to admit that his effort at the StillHouse pulls out ahead as a total experience.

Dropped down right in front of Source Brewing, neighboring Delicious Orchards, and constantly featuring unique food trucks, the Colts Neck StillHouse has become part of a community of locally sourced foods and drinks of the highest quality. You can spend all day and all evening in that complex without running out of things to try or patio games to play.

The place is family friendly, and draws great crowds, and I already can't wait to be back. Thanks, Mike!

P.S. - For potential customers, the locations closes at 10pm, which is great for us '20 somethings', because it gives us plenty of time to go parkin' up at...

The Colts Neck Stillhouse is the home of Muckleyes Spirits and they make some great spirits and have an amazing cocktail program as well.

This was my second visit and on my first visit a while back I had an amazing port cask aged rye which sadly the taster bottle behind the bar I tried was the only one left. This time they had no Rye Whiskey at all, and since I'm a Rye guy I had to knock them down a star for not having a favorite.

However everything else about the place is great, I had the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot which was expertly made and perfectly delicious. While my dad enjoyed Mischief Maker and my mom enjoyed the Tea Time served with a happy little rubber duck.

If you are in the area and enjoy a well crafted spirit or cocktail this place is...
