West Overton Museum

Posted on Comments Off on West Overton Museum

Visit with the folks at West Overton Museum , the home of pre-Prohibition rye whiskeys like Old Farm Rye Whiskey and Overholt Rye Whiskey.  It is the most intact and historically well-preserved 19th century distillery location in Pennsylvania. For antique whiskey drinkers, a must destination tourist stop in western PA.  They are here for the PA Spirits Convention to educate us about pre-industrial distilleries and show off their very important connection to PA distilling history.
