Notes
KAITC file shows completed 2017 investment. Kentucky announced a $5M Henry County distillery/historical-park project in 2016. Later Kentucky active-project listings and 2024 liquor-license public notices show Patriot Brands LLC still operating, with a Chicago mailing address and Kentucky distillery licenses tied to Six Mile Creek Distillery.
[Deep research 2026-04-11] Research confirms active operations in Pleasureville, KY (Henry County) as of 2020 Kentucky Directory of Manufacturers listing. Founded by Damien Prather (former tax attorney, owns PRA-CON construction). 2016 project included $5M investment for 8,000 sq ft distillery, historical park, grist mill, B&B, and tasting venues with up to $400,000 in tax incentives via KEDFA/KEIA. Planned 15 full-time jobs. No evidence of actual relocation despite Chicago mailing address - Kentucky operations persist.
