Just as the founder of the COWS believes that the Bottled-In-Bond Act of 1897 is the foundation of the success of American whiskey, he also believes that becoming an official COWS Member provides the same for the society.
There has never been a more exciting time to be part of the Central Ohio Whiskey Society than right now. We have never had as many opportunities and new experiences as what we have now.
2026 Membership Renewal is just $100: If you have not yet renewed your COWS membership for 2026, here is the link: https://link.clover.com/
What Comes with Your 2026 Membership
Monthly Meetings at Pinnacle Golf Club
Expect another year of standout distillers, engaging presentations, blind pours, dinner, and raffle prizes. Meetings continue on the second Wednesday of each month.
“Beyond Bourbon” Special Series
New for 2026 — a deep dive into global whiskey styles. We’ll explore Rye, Scotch, Irish, American Single Malt, and a few surprises from beyond the bourbon world.
Craft Distiller Spotlights
Enjoy encore sessions from favorites and presentations from new craft distillers we couldn’t schedule last year.
Local Meetups & Experiences
Whiskey & Cigar Patio Nights are back, along with member-only events at local distilleries featuring behind-the-scenes looks and unique product experiences.
Barrel Picks
One of the most exciting parts of COWS membership continues in 2026: at least four barrel picks. Pick teams are chosen by lottery from all interested members (no special fee or membership level required). Just be able to travel to the selection site on pick day.
Exclusive Member Bottles
Our barrel picks yield exceptional single-barrel releases sold only within the society. Every bottle is unique, memorable, and available to members first.
Holiday Party
Your membership secures entry to our annual year-end celebration with dinner, pours, and great prizes.
Join now and enjoy all the perks that come with an annual membership in COWS, one of the largest and most active Whiskey Societies in the US!
We appreciate the support to allow the Central Ohio Whiskey Society to continue to flourish and provide continued education, experiences, and fellowship with lovers of whiskey in Central Ohio.
