True Standard Distilling comes to downtown Frederick

One of the keys to True Standard Distilling’s operations sits away from the shiny white quartz countertop of the new tasting room or the 500-gallon copper still that sits behind a glass wall nearby.

In a corner of a back room of the distillery — which celebrated its grand opening on Frederick’s North Carroll Street on May 29 — is a case of glass beakers, each labeled with a strip of blue tape.
