A new dual concept is expanding in Crystal River. Jim Briley, owner of Aggregation Distillery shared the details of the businesses with FFBW.

Aggregation Distillery is a craft distillery and spirits bar that Briley recently opened at: 255 SE US Hwy 19, Crystal River, FL 34429. Currently, Aggregation Distillery takes up one unit of the building, offering an intimate bar that features indoor and outdoor seating beneath sun sails. All of the spirits are distilled on premises.

Briley shared that he is renovating the neighboring unit in the building to accommodate more indoor seating, events, and even live music performances. With renovations underway, Briley expects to open this secondary room in a matter of weeks.

Additionally, Sirenia Coffee and Wine Bar will be a nearby food truck offering tacos and other similar street foods. The truck is owned by David Briley, Jim's son. Sirenia will be available to nearby Aggregation patrons that wish to walk over for a quick bite.

Sirenia will also operate a wine and beer bar in the second unit at: 255 SE US Hwy 19, Crystal River, FL 34429. Guests will enjoy Florida-brewed beers from across the state, Briley shared. Sirenia is set to roll out the truck and indoor beer and wine bar in a few weeks as well.

The Aggregation Distillery brand is operating in this capacity as a way of raising funds and proving their concept to expand into a much larger facility. Plans to expand are roughly 3-5 years from completion, Briley said.

But, for the time being, guests can still enjoy the craft spirits at Aggregation and the food, beer and wine at Sirenia next door. Follow Aggregation Distillery on Facebook. Also, see their business spotlighted by Citrus Count Live.
