Remember this!
Distillery and brewery are both places where alcoholic beverages are produced, but they differ in the type of product, ingredients, and process. A distillery produces distilled spirits such as whiskey, gin, and vodka, using grains, fruits, or vegetables as the base and distilling them to increase their alcohol content and purity. On the other hand, a brewery produces beer using malted barley, hops, and yeast, and the process involves boiling, fermenting, and aging to create the final product.
