Journeyman x St Elmo Winston A. Fox Whiskey Release Dinner

June 19th  *  6:00PM CT

Journeyman Distillery at The American Factory
258 South Campbell Street, Valparaiso

Event ImageJoin us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the hometown release of Winston A. Fox, a bold new rye whiskey inspired by the legendary fox mascot of St. Elmo Steak House.

Crafted as “The Story of Six Fine Ryes,” Winston A Fox is a distinctive blend of five Journeyman rye whiskeys and one exceptional rye from Rare Saint Whiskey, finished together for nine months in Madeira casks and bottled at 100 proof. The result is a rich, layered whiskey created to celebrate nearly a decade of partnership between Journeyman and the Huse Culinary team behind St. Elmo Steak House.

The evening will feature a multi-course steak dinner led by Journeyman Executive Chef, Guy Meikle. Inspired by the classic steakhouse experience, guests will enjoy premium Linz steaks, thoughtfully paired pours, and the world-famous St. Elmo shrimp cocktail as a tribute to the collaboration. Representatives from Huse, including one of their chefs, will join the celebration.

Raise a glass to exceptional whiskey, legendary steakhouse tradition, and an evening rooted in Midwestern craftsmanship and hospitality.
