about us


In 2014, carrying on the Bowman family tradition of crafting small batch, award-winning products, Master Distiller Brian Prewitt began the journey of crafting his signature gins. Through dedicated tinkering and the christening of a copper pot still, which he has named “George”, Brian has created perfect symphonies of intricate flavors and aromas in 3 separate expressions of gin for all to enjoy.

We are honored to have our Master Distiller, Brian Prewitt at A. Smith Bowman Distillery, located in historic Fredericksburg, VA.

Brian joined our team in August of 2013. He is a native of Colorado, with over 20 years of brewing and distilling experience.  Since joining, he has crafted many limited edition spirits and continues to win awards for his efforts.

In case you are wondering about the naming of the still, it is rooted in Bowman family history. George is named after the father of the pioneering Bowman brothers.

A Message from Brian

Many years ago, I set out on a personal journey to find the perfect combination of elements that define a great gin. Countless hours spent with my trusty stills taught me how to perfectly balance the characteristic essence of juniper with distinctive combinations of herbs, flowers, spices, fruits and vegetables. All those years of tinkering resulted in several exceptional gin expressions, each with its own story and character. I hope that you enjoy each unique variety of Tinkerman’s gin, and I encourage you to stop by our workshop, as I continue to seek out what gin is and what it can become.
