Breweries & Wineries

Tootsie’s Taproom- Tootsie’s Taproom, located in the old Spot Liquor Store on the corner of Main and Lee streets, features locally brewed beer made right up the road in neighboring Lead, South Dakota.

Our taproom, named after Fred Borsch’s famed South Dakota “singing coyote” Tootsie, features quality craft beer ranging from our signature crisp 5280 Pale Ale to our dark and roasty Whistle Blowin’ Stout and more.

Tootsie was a regular at Borsch’s Spot Liquor Store. She could be found hanging around the place on any ordinary day and often gave unsuspecting customers quite a startle. Tootsie gained popularity with people all across the state of South Dakota, and as testament to this, Governor George T. Mickelson proclaimed the coyote the state animal in 1949.  An attractive and colorful sign, featuring Tootsie, stood as a sentinel on the store’s roof for years. Recently, thanks to Deadwood’s Historic Preservation Office, the iconic sign is back!

We invite you in for a cold craft brew inside the oldest wooden structure on Main Street.  We’re confident Tootsie’s will become a favorite stop each time you visit our little Wild West town in the beautiful Black Hills.
