Nebraska’s wine industry has really heated up over the last couple of decades. It’s now possible to find delicious local wine just about everywhere you go in the state. But this place in Brownville is one that should definitely be on your must-visit list.

The little town of Brownville, located in the far southeastern corner of Nebraska, is full of museums, little shops, a popular twice-yearly flea market….and Whiskey Run Creek Winery.

The business takes its name from Whiskey Run Creek, which actually runs directly under the building. In a feat of engineering and ingenuity, a century-old barn was moved from its original farm home to a reinforced platform above the creek.

This plot of land was the site of one of Nebraska’s first wineries, so it seemed like the perfect location for the barn-turned-winery. The old underground brick storage spaces were cleared up and restored, which adds another element of wonder to this unique place.
