The Ohio Distiller's Guild was incorporated in 2012 by Ryan Lang of Middle West Spirits, Greg Lehman of Watershed Distillery, and Tom Herbruck of Tom's Foolery Distillery with the hopes that the Guild would provide a legislative voice for Ohio's Craft Distillers as well as a forum where industry professionals could locate business resources and information. The primary functions of the guild  are for advocacy of our members and to effect improvements for our industry through legislature  which we hope, in return, will create a reputable, quality driven and successful distilling industry in Ohio.
