USO Indiana Visits Hotel Tango Distillery

Thank you to the team at Hotel Tango Distillery for the tour of your Indiana operations. Established in 2013, Hotel Tango Distillery is the first combat-disabled, veteran-owned distillery in the U.S. and Indy’s first since prohibition. The name Hotel Tango reflects the military roots of the company’s founder, Travis Barnes. Returning home to Indiana after serving three combat tours as a Recon Marine, Travis thought of a special way to incorporate his and his wife’s name in their new business. In the military phonetic alphabet, H (for Hilary) translates to Hotel, T (for Travis) translates to Tango. Thank you for your commitment to hiring other veterans and giving back to the local military community.
