Very laid back & fun atmosphere! You'll enjoy everything from the specialty cocktails to the pirate theme! They have a lot of live music and other events such as comedy night, themed costume parties & craft nights!

I love this place. Great drinks, fun atmosphere, great prices. What more can you ask for?!?! It's a fun place to stop if you are heading to Pier 8. We did the tour years ago and it was a blast.

Really enjoyed Railean, live blues music night. The drinks were good, no lines, love the shopping and get your own mug for the next visit!

First time in and it was because Vince King was performing (Elvis tribute). We ordered a pizza and a flight of spirits, and a few extra shots throughout the night. The pizza was a frozen type pizza, but wasn't horrible. The flight of spirits was interesting, very affordable. No complaints there. For it being a metal building, it was exceptionally cool, atmosphere was neat. My problem was the bartender. He was not even a little bit friendly. He was sweating profusely and kept wiping his head with his hands then touching our drinks to hand them to us. Each encounter, he wouldn't even crack a friendly smile or even say thank you. Except when it was a local or someone he knew. If I don't feel valued as a customer, I can see no reason to come back and support the establishment. That's unfortunate because it could be a fun place to hang out, but given the reception, it won't be.

Awesome distillery with super friendly staff!! The atmosphere is casual and inviting and the drinks are delicious. We had a tasting and then a few cocktails from their expansive list! These people know spirits! We will definitely be back next time we are in the area. Delicious!

It is a little hole in the wall distillery. The staff were truly friendly & welcoming. The tour was very enlightening. The owner was an absolute sweetheart. The tasting class was thorough. Hubby was happy that he got one of their mugs. HAHA The outdoor area was quaint. They even have an oversized rocking chair for a cute picture opportunity. The bar decor was so cute & "Piratey" The selection of Rums was refreshing. They also have things going on nightly like karaoke trivia & bingo. I'm so happy we decided to stop in!

Fun & friendly place. Great outdoor patio seating that is pet friendly. (You do need to pass your dog over the outer patio gate due to local area regs). Great beverage selection. Live music often. Had a great time. Everyone said we MUST do a distillery tour so we will definitely b doing that out next time through!

This distillery is about 25 minutes from Webster TX where I was staying. Based on the reviews I was excited. Underwhelmed... Spirits were all OK, but nothing to write home about. If you're in the area it's worth a stop, but I wouldn't make it a destination...

We attended a "local mutt" Dog Show here last week. It was great fun. It was our first trip to Railean Distillery and we found this pub to be a "local charm". A really great place to run into old friends and make new ones.

A $20 tour of the Railean distillery will learn you up on the spirits process and industry, includes a tasty beverage and give you all the tasting you want! Fair warning, it's super hot in the distillation room when it's 85 outside His only knows what is like in the summer. The Buccaneer bar is a cool place just on its own as well, with occasional live music.
