Spirit of Texas Spirit Society

Our founder, Shaun Siems, was raised in Pflugerville, Texas. An engineer by trade, you would often find Shaun home-brewing beer in his off hours—not atypical for a Texan.

In 2006, at 29, Shaun and two friends were well into a night of testing some homebrew when they devised an idea for starting a distillery. They were just three guys who wanted to follow their passion. Their goal: Create quality top shelf spirits. The spirits had to be representative of Texas and affordable. And of course, they had to be something the guys would love to drink themselves.

“Let’s Do It Our Way!”

Three years later, in 2009, their independent commercial distillery was born in a small industrial district in Pflugerville, TX.
