I'd suggest a more tactical approach. Instead of chaotically improvising tours for mixed results and the same type of content...this is an ideal opportunity to expand the depth of content. Do more advance research to ensure youre return first off. Contact locations in advance, see about virtual tours. Also, instead of all the travel...pick spots that have other community appeal and relevance to the history of American whiskey, bourbon, rye and ale. This way instead of driving twelve hours in a vague direction with many stops for similar content...you minimize travel essentially to a confined area, streamline efficiency, and have the luxury of time to actually EXPERIENCE the places you visit. I'm gonna keep saying it til you do it lol...come to Sioux City, Iowa. We are equidistant from Omaha and Sioux Falls and are centrally located on I 29 north and south...and just 90 minutes from I 80 east and west. Thus, it actually makes a near ideal spot to hit no matter which direction you're headed around the country. We have a very unique historical role in Capones prohibition operation, including his personal wine cellar....though mudslides have buried it now. We have a one of a kind bar in "The Whiskey Hole" that would be an ideal setting for a local sampling of only premium and rare bourbon, rye, straight whiskey, etc. Additionally Sioux City hosts THREE local breweries that dabble in distilling and it's highly likely at the Whiskey Hole you would get inside information on all things bourbon regionally that you otherwise wouldn't know exists. America is plum full of great communities like Sioux City...and Brewzle could truly take a major leap forward evolving from a novelty booze testing show to a bourbon centered focus on the communities and history of things like Appalachia moonshine, Iowa Corn whiskey, high mountain rye. Matter of fact if you agree to come to Sioux City I'll even do your research and find ONE community in each state to showcase. This way everyone wins and the entire country can be represented while creating a superior product and brand. Brewzle is more than just booze, and it should reflect that right?
My wife & I love grabbing take out and watching your videos. She has started to gain an interest in whiskey because of you. We both would appreciate longer videos!
Hey Brewzle, I’m a beer nerd new to this Bourbon’s and whiskey stuff. You asked how long a beer keeps. It depends on the style. The reason why they are always stouts is because the high ABV helps that preservation as well as it being a style with no aroma or flavoring hops. Those hops would just come out grassy, green and earthy if aged past 3 months. Since there are only bittering hops added in the early part of the boil, those don’t really add as much character outside balancing a malty sweetness. When talking about that beer specifically. I’d say you could drink it 5 years past it’s born on date, maybe more depending on how you store it. The only real enemy would be oxidation. Storing it upright would limit the exposure and an aged beer with a touch of oxidation isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I like my aged beers around year 3. I feel like you get a lot more vanilla and cherries, maybe a little oak while still being able to taste the base beer and the bourbon.
I don’t like whiskey but I enjoy seeing your enthusiasm to cover a country the size of yours to find hidden gems , love from 🏴🏴🏴🏴
Should go to Jungle Jim’s grocery store in Cincy, it’s got a huge alcohol selection and the store is quite the experience. Food and drinks from all around the world.
Man after watching this and living in Cincy it shows me my bourbon hunting experience is the same. Ohio does a state raffle on most rare allocated whiskeys and Kentucky most stores ask over secondary.
That first store is nuts. We have Specs down here and there are many of them. There are a few that have stores like that, most of them are emptied out supermarkets that have been remodeled. They are huge. I used to get a keg every 2 weeks for my palapa. I don't drink anymore but love your content. Awesome videos! I can live my bourbon journey through you vicariously.
I saw that they had a bunch of the Boon County Bourbon on the shelf. They make a bottle that is outstanding if you can find it. It was a limited run with the Dalton Winery and they aged their bourbon in the Dalton Winery casks. Absolutely amazing.
Good call on getting the two releases of the Bourbon County Brand Stout. Not only is each expression unique, but age in bottle softens the hops and highlights the malty notes. They're good for at least five years in the bottle. Vertical tastings of the mm at different ages are a lot of fun.
Glad to see you FINALLY made it to Northern Kentucky to hunt. You hit the big ones like The Party Source and Uncorked, but there are other great stores in the area as well. You could do a weekend trip and hit New Riff, Boone County, Northside Distillery, Wenzel Whiskey, and finish off by hitting Revival Vintage Spirits Shop, CHEERS!
If you go into Michigan you have to get a bottle of the RD1 small batch Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey finished with Brazilian Amburana wood 110 proof it is a huge hitter most places has been sold out
15-20 min is perfect. And I loved when you were giving recommendations to other people. Very fun addition. I think it could get old because you would probably give similar recommendations to many people.
Was coming in here to comment basically the same thing. I think if they stay within the 15-20 minute window, most people are good with that, and I think RUclips likes videos that are around the 15 minute range if I remember correctly.
When you come to my great state of South Dakota. Sioux Falls has some great stores JJs and Williquors. Or Yankton has Liquor Hot Spot they usually have some cool stuff.
I love these videos. Your channel got me started on my American Whiskey crusade. I put more weight on your pallet than any other Whiskey channel. Thank you. As a Scotsman I understand your concern about Scottish Whisky. The reality is it’s no longer for normal consumption. You guys have seen the market moves with Blantons, Stagg etc. imagine that market but add 100 years or so of interest. I’m sure there are exceptions but a Scottish Single Malt needs to be at least 18 years old to be worth trying and those are prohibitively expensive. I’d recommend Speyside Whisky as a good entry point as they tend to be more delicate. Avoid peated Whisky, if you don’t like Oak, you’ll hate peat. All the best and keep doing what you are doing.
Honestly it has always been on my bucket list to meet Brewzle. I don't have any friends and especially not anyone who likes or even drinks bourbon. I live in a bubble when it comes to whiskey hunting and it's always so disappointing when I find one I really enjoy I don't get to share it with anyone.
I recently had some people over and was trying to explain my collection and samplings to others, but they could have cared less 😂. After a few pours, they didn't notice the difference between a $200 bottle to a el cheapo $25 bottle.
Pretty sure if you look at the tags on the shelf if was $99, think he might’ve overlooked it. Could be wrong though, that’d be the best price anyone’s ever gotten for it lol.
I was lured into clicking this in my feed with "largest liquor store I've ever seen." I was hoping for Party Source, and I was not disappointed! P.S. It totally counts as Cincinnati. Whenever anyone around here is on a serious hunt and has time, that's were we go. They have just about everything.
I always enjoy your content, from hunting and lotteries to barrel picks. I’ve been referencing your videos at my local bourbon club meetings every other month, and I hope my fellow members are starting to check out your videos. I catch myself going on random trips “just to browse” my various local stores for cool new bottles to try. Most recently I’ve found Luckenbach Road (now “1693 Distillery”) it’s a fairly nice Texas bourbon. Might have to join the Patreon for some of those special picks. Much love from Texas!
That Dexter is good! I have a bottle of theirs I cracked open and currently really enjoying it! I would say these style videos are my favorite! Keep up the good work!
You should really make a compilation of your interactions with customers on these trips where you discuss bourbons/drinks. Would be a cool mini series.
#BottleKill Length is arguably perfect Brewz. We wouldn't be disappointed with even longer tbh, always a great and entertaining watch and hunt with you.
Lawrenceburg is a new producer my wife and I met last year at the KBF. Their bourbon is MGP, rye is theirs, and as of last year they locked down property to build their distillery on. Very nice couple that owns Lawrenceburg. #BOTTLEKILL
I don't drink that much liquor cause i'm dumb i just drink everything that has been poured in front of me. But watching all the hunts is the most interesting and fun videos i've ever watched it never gets boring and seeing B-Boss advise people on ehat liquor to buy is amazing. Big props to this series i need more alot more
If you are driving through Minnesota, if you like beer and wine, I highly recommend taking a detour and go to Schell's brewery and Morgan Creek Vineyard!
If you want a cool experience while going to a liquor store in Cincinnati, I highly recommend Jungle Jim’s. It was a place that was on my “bucket list” for years. The best way I can describe it size wise, is a Walmart super center on steroids. The place is massive and has any kind of food you can think of. They also have a liquor store the size of a regular grocery store inside. Wife and I went in just to look and 2 hours later, we’re $100 in the hole and planning our next visit. We went to the one in Farfield (just outside Cincinnati) and heard the one in Cincinnati is better and are planning our next visit there. The decor in the store is just kitschy and awesome. The liquor store had a decorative bottle of liquor from the late 1700’s and had a bottle in a crystal decanter marked for $5k.
If & when you come back through Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky; here’s some places to stop along with The Party Source, Uncorked & New Riff… Bluegrass Liquor Store; Liquor Barn in Fort Thomas. Bars that sell some bottles… Revival Vintage Spirits (dusty bottles); Rich’s Proper, Old Kentucky Bourbon bar (all have Facebook pages to check out recent bottle additions especially Private barrel picks). And near MGP in Lawrenceburg, IN; Whitey’s they have several private barrel picks you can sample before you buy.
I live in NKY. Another big store is Party Town in Florence KY. It's not as big as Party Source but worth a visit I'd say. Also, the highest grossing liquor store for bourbon in the USA is the Costco also in Florence. You don't have to be a Costco member to shop in the liquor store (or the pharmacy). Safe travels.
If you ever end back up in Ohio, go to High Bank Distillery and pick up a bottle of Whiskey War Barrel Proof. It’s a blended whiskey but has a high rye bourbon mash bill. Gives off big salted pretzel and buttery caramel notes. Definitely one of my top 5 go-to’s.
14:30 left side of screen, left of the row of JD bottles; That EJ Curley Single Barrel is absolutely delicious and only available in KY. Aside from the bottle of Michters I got to fill myself at the Fort Nelson distillery, the EJ Curley SB was my favorite bottle from our recent trip to Louisville. Cheers!🥃
Those Pinhook Yellow (Bourbon) and Blue (Rye) Vertical Single Barrels, 5:01 minute mark most RUclipsrs pass these up all the time and they are fantastic!
I always stop at The Party Source on my trips through Indiana to KY. The Owner of New Riff was the owner of The Party Source. He had to sell the liquor store to open up the Distillery by KY law. They usually have a huge selection of store picks. Innskeeper Blend is $99 everywhere and you got it for $57. I just picked up the 2XO Tribute Blend. It blows the Phoenix Blend and Innskeeper Blend out of the water. 🥃
The Party Source is overwhelming, but you can find some serious hidden gems in there. The further away from their tasting bar you get, the more likely you will find a hidden gem (in bourbon.)
Seeing Evan W. Single Barrels on the shelf for $50 just hurts! That’s on top of them only being available in liquor stores in KY now. Only sold nationwide to bars and restaurants. Those were $32 everywhere, until early this year when they were pulled from nationwide distribution in order to promote 1783. For the life of me, I will never understand marketing.🤣
Total Wine and more are absolutely awesome liquor stores they always have a massive selection of everything and in every price range. Was in there yesterday and have bourbons in every style from $20 up to $5000.
I was at The Party Source last weekend and dropped over $200 on five bottles including Driftless Glen and Juke Joint. Love the store, but despite its sheer size and volume, you'll have to go deeper in Kentucky if you're chasing the rare bottles. It's always worth exploring though.
That Blackwood Toasted from Justin’s House of Bourbon is legit. I don’t often feel I need to spend over $80 to get a great bottle, but Blackwood is worth it.
I watched a video of you earlier today and saw somehow the Talladega video didnt do well. It was one of my favorite did you upload shorts of it? I dont really wetch shorts but just an idea on how many to get some more traction on it. Keep up the good work brewzel you really make my day better
First video of yours I've watched. Personally not much of a drinker myself in terms of volume but I love bourbon every so often. Buffalo Trace is my go to and now I'm on the lookout for benchmark, thanks to you. If you ever have the opportunity to hit a "Total Wine and More" do so, quite the big box booze experience. Cheers!
as someone that lives in Cincinnati, the liquor stores in Ohio aren't that great because it's Ohio. All Ohio liquor stores are supplied by the state. The state makes all the buys. So the selection can be limited and most of the stores have the same exact stuff. That is why Kentucky tends to have a better selection.
You can age those bourbon county stouts for years but keep ‘em in a cool dark place. Cellar temp is typically 50-55 degrees. They’ll mature well. Years ago before Goose Island sold to AB I went to Chicago and took the train alone for the first time down to their now defunct brewpub at Wriglyville. I got a bomber (22oz) bottle of the bourbon county stout and one of the coffee version. Back then they were white whales and not widely distributed. Smuggled them back in my checked luggage to Dallas where I lived at the time. I used to do a lot of beer hunting and trading back in the day. I don’t know if you get Firestone Walker brewing in Alabama but their Parabola barrel aged stout and Sucaba barrel aged barleywine are incredible. Also Boulevard Brewing (Kansas city) make a few barrel aged products that are unreal! I love the bourbon hunting videos and I’m learning a ton. Also a former Corrado SLC owner!
Next time you’re in the area check out M & S liquor and liquor city in Florence they are within 15 mins of new riff Both have pappy, Blantons, E. H. Taylor, and a variety of Wellers
As someone who has worked as a bartender as well as in a liquor store, once you see what alcohol has done to some people's lives, it definitely pushes you to not drink. It isn't everyone, hell it isn't most people, but there are definitely some...

I love how you are just standing in a liquor store and selling Benchmark to people 😂
Buy as much as you can for the price now
Really hate it!!! I can't find any at my location due to that.
Benchmark is definitely the best cheap whiskey in America
Peak bourbon dad activity lol
@@ItsBoogie. Admittedly I would buy that bourbon if someone told me that as well!
My wife & I love grabbing take out and watching your videos. She has started to gain an interest in whiskey because of you. We both would appreciate longer videos!
Thank you, that means a lot!
20+ min bourbon hunt videos are perfect! Keep it up Brewzle!
Hey can I come live with you? Please I’m thirsty for milk….
You’ve definitely got the best bourbon hunting videos on the net. Entertaining, educational and your interactions with others are fantastic.

Hey Brewzle, I’m a beer nerd new to this Bourbon’s and whiskey stuff.
You asked how long a beer keeps. It depends on the style. The reason why they are always stouts is because the high ABV helps that preservation as well as it being a style with no aroma or flavoring hops. Those hops would just come out grassy, green and earthy if aged past 3 months. Since there are only bittering hops added in the early part of the boil, those don’t really add as much character outside balancing a malty sweetness.
When talking about that beer specifically. I’d say you could drink it 5 years past it’s born on date, maybe more depending on how you store it. The only real enemy would be oxidation. Storing it upright would limit the exposure and an aged beer with a touch of oxidation isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
I like my aged beers around year 3. I feel like you get a lot more vanilla and cherries, maybe a little oak while still being able to taste the base beer and the bourbon.
No one wants a short Brewzle !
Love your videos TJ
I don’t like whiskey but I enjoy seeing your enthusiasm to cover a country the size of yours to find hidden gems , love from 🏴🏴🏴🏴
Should go to Jungle Jim’s grocery store in Cincy, it’s got a huge alcohol selection and the store is quite the experience. Food and drinks from all around the world.
Plus you can drink craft beer and shop for groceries at the same time, ask me how I know
Happy to see you commend the guy earlier on int the liquor store who didn't drink. Very respectful, very thiughtful.
I love these bourbon hunting videos! So cool to get a peek inside liquor stores all over the country.
Man after watching this and living in Cincy it shows me my bourbon hunting experience is the same. Ohio does a state raffle on most rare allocated whiskeys and Kentucky most stores ask over secondary.
Don’t change a thing with the videos brother. Great bourbon adventures!
That first store is nuts. We have Specs down here and there are many of them.
There are a few that have stores like that, most of them are emptied out supermarkets that have been remodeled.
They are huge. I used to get a keg every 2 weeks for my palapa. I don't drink anymore but love your content.
Awesome videos! I can live my bourbon journey through you vicariously.
I like the editing. I like the interaction with other customers while shopping. You are doing great.
I saw that they had a bunch of the Boon County Bourbon on the shelf. They make a bottle that is outstanding if you can find it. It was a limited run with the Dalton Winery and they aged their bourbon in the Dalton Winery casks. Absolutely amazing.

Buffalo Trace for $25 when you cant even get it in Austin anywhere and its over $70. Travesty.
Buffalo Trace isn’t readily available in Kansas. But when I find it, they’ll sell it for MSRP.
It is good for 29 or less. I love it but not paying more than it’s worth.
I get it for 25 bucks on go puff
Only $20 here in Santa Barbara California
Joe Rogan effect. Especially in Austin 🤣🤣
15-20 min is perfect. And I loved when you were giving recommendations to other people. Very fun addition. I think it could get old because you would probably give similar recommendations to many people.
Cheers Brewzie, for me this is like being on holiday & it helps decide if some US Bourbon is overpriced just because it crossed the pond in a Tote.
These 15-30min videos are perfect for lulls during the workday. #bottlekill

Holy cow, $15 for a pour of Weller 12 lol... I need to make a trip to that store just for their sample cabinet lol.
Seriously bro. Here in Buffalo a one ounce pour of Weller 12 is like 45 dollars. Plus you have to tip the bastard.
You are the most genuine and relatable whiskey drinker creating great content.
Wait, 2XO for $57?!!! Dang that's a good buy.
Pretty sure if you look at the tags on the shelf if was $99, think he might’ve overlooked it. Could be wrong though, that’d be the best price anyone’s ever gotten for it lol.
That 2xo is $99 everywhere I see
I think he was mistaken based on scrubbing back and looking at the tag.
Ok that makes more sense@@wood2040
What I’m saying, I’d get a whole case at that price 😂
I was lured into clicking this in my feed with "largest liquor store I've ever seen." I was hoping for Party Source, and I was not disappointed!
P.S. It totally counts as Cincinnati. Whenever anyone around here is on a serious hunt and has time, that's were we go. They have just about everything.
Just keep doing what yer doing Broozle
Appreciate your videos! I'm a huge Barrel aged stouts, and the bourbon county stouts are consistently excellent and relatively cheap.
I always enjoy your content, from hunting and lotteries to barrel picks. I’ve been referencing your videos at my local bourbon club meetings every other month, and I hope my fellow members are starting to check out your videos. I catch myself going on random trips “just to browse” my various local stores for cool new bottles to try. Most recently I’ve found Luckenbach Road (now “1693 Distillery”) it’s a fairly nice Texas bourbon. Might have to join the Patreon for some of those special picks. Much love from Texas!
If you find it again pick up some Balcones whiskey. A little distillery out of Waco, TX. They have some really good higher proof stuff
Trying a bottle or two at the end is the best, really liked that addition.
honestly - great pacing, great commentary and I love that you take the time to talk to other people and see what they like. Great content!
Great stuff TJ, I very much enjoy the longer format hunting vids, keep 'em coming!
Great vid and not too long. I’ve done a few bourbon hunting road trips and the interactions with the proprietors and other shoppers is the best part.
That Dexter is good! I have a bottle of theirs I cracked open and currently really enjoying it! I would say these style videos are my favorite! Keep up the good work!
Really enjoy your videos. They could be longer and I wouldn't be mad about that! Thanks for what you do
When I lived in South Indiana I did IT for Hubers Winery and Distillery. Was a blast from the past.
A new Brewzle hunt video! Woot! Happy Friday!
You should really make a compilation of your interactions with customers on these trips where you discuss bourbons/drinks. Would be a cool mini series.
#BottleKill
Length is arguably perfect Brewz. We wouldn't be disappointed with even longer tbh, always a great and entertaining watch and hunt with you.

Brand new to your channel. New to bourbon. Loving the content. Already joined the membership
LOOOOOOOOONGER! Love the buying videos because it shows me how awful and overpriced my local stores are.
Bud, try watching these awesome bourbon hunting videos while living in Canada. Sad times for me
Big ups to longer!!!!!!!!!!! Lets me narrow down my choices next time I head out.
@@MichaelVanKorn Same! Ontario is horrible for it makes me miss living in Alberta
My girlfriends father got me into bourbon and the first bottle he gifted me was that Dexter. I love it!
I love long videos and the testing at the end is awesome, I love knowing immediately what you think.
I don't drink that much liquor cause i'm dumb i just drink everything that has been poured in front of me. But watching all the hunts is the most interesting and fun videos i've ever watched it never gets boring and seeing B-Boss advise people on ehat liquor to buy is amazing. Big props to this series i need more alot more
If I had a bottle of bourbon for every time TJ said he's gonna be selective, I might have as many bottles as TJ.
We really need a super cut
If you are driving through Minnesota, if you like beer and wine, I highly recommend taking a detour and go to Schell's brewery and Morgan Creek Vineyard!
Love your videos just make more of them 😂 I had to binge watch your videos 😂
#bottlekill Perfect time for these hunts. Keep it up

The Fairfield one is the main one. The Eastgate location is smaller.
#bottlekill Keep doing what you're doing Brewzle!
Love all of your content!! Truly enjoy watching you hunt all over America!
Minnesota is a hidden gem for hunting. Bookers in almost every store I visited while I was there.
If & when you come back through Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky; here’s some places to stop along with The Party Source, Uncorked & New Riff… Bluegrass Liquor Store; Liquor Barn in Fort Thomas. Bars that sell some bottles… Revival Vintage Spirits (dusty bottles); Rich’s Proper, Old Kentucky Bourbon bar (all have Facebook pages to check out recent bottle additions especially Private barrel picks).

As i say every time you ask how the videos are. They’re perfect. I love it!
If you ever end back up in Ohio, go to High Bank Distillery and pick up a bottle of Whiskey War Barrel Proof. It’s a blended whiskey but has a high rye bourbon mash bill. Gives off big salted pretzel and buttery caramel notes. Definitely one of my top 5 go-to’s.
As a young veteran who misses ole Dixie your videos make me feel like home partner
14:30 left side of screen, left of the row of JD bottles; That EJ Curley Single Barrel is absolutely delicious and only available in KY. Aside from the bottle of Michters I got to fill myself at the Fort Nelson distillery, the EJ Curley SB was my favorite bottle from our recent trip to Louisville. Cheers!🥃
covington kentucky trumps cincinatti any day of the week. you definitely want to try that makers 46 cask strength
My wife and I went to Party Source about a month ago and it was almost overwhelming how big their bourbon section was.
Those Pinhook Yellow (Bourbon) and Blue (Rye) Vertical Single Barrels, 5:01 minute mark most RUclipsrs pass these up all the time and they are fantastic!
fun hunting videos. thanks for taking us on the journey. cheers
I always stop at The Party Source on my trips through Indiana to KY. The Owner of New Riff was the owner of The Party Source. He had to sell the liquor store to open up the Distillery by KY law. They usually have a huge selection of store picks. Innskeeper Blend is $99 everywhere and you got it for $57. I just picked up the 2XO Tribute Blend. It blows the Phoenix Blend and Innskeeper Blend out of the water. 🥃
Makes sense Party Source was the biggest Liquor Store that you have seen. Largest Liquor Store in the country. Love that place!
Love the videos!! The length is great but the 30-40 mins are my favorites!
Party Source is the truth! Love that you stopped in to New Riff! It’s actually started by the founder of Party Source!
I dont currently drink, but when I did I was a beer guy. And I loved that Bourbon Stout. I remember when those where hard to find.
Those liqour barns in covington are hidden gems, ive see Old carter, Woodford BP, all the BT products, HH specials, you name it
Oh man, I wouldn't have been able to resist that Woodford Double Oaked store pick. Only had the regular, and I freaking love it,
After watching so many of your videos, it's great to see you huntin' in my backyard!
The Party Source is overwhelming, but you can find some serious hidden gems in there. The further away from their tasting bar you get, the more likely you will find a hidden gem (in bourbon.)
Honestly, the longer the better! Makes me feel like I'm traveling w ya.
Seeing Evan W. Single Barrels on the shelf for $50 just hurts! That’s on top of them only being available in liquor stores in KY now. Only sold nationwide to bars and restaurants.
Those were $32 everywhere, until early this year when they were pulled from nationwide distribution in order to promote 1783. For the life of me, I will never understand marketing.🤣
That was awesome how you helped those folks with some solid picks and knowledge.
I live in virginia and ragged branch is one of the best bourbons for the price. I like the regular black label signature bottle.
Total Wine and more are absolutely awesome liquor stores they always have a massive selection of everything and in every price range. Was in there yesterday and have bourbons in every style from $20 up to $5000.
Length of the videos are good. Always a blast going shopping around and informative as a newbie!
I was at The Party Source last weekend and dropped over $200 on five bottles including Driftless Glen and Juke Joint. Love the store, but despite its sheer size and volume, you'll have to go deeper in Kentucky if you're chasing the rare bottles. It's always worth exploring though.
That Blackwood Toasted from Justin’s House of Bourbon is legit. I don’t often feel I need to spend over $80 to get a great bottle, but Blackwood is worth it.
I watched a video of you earlier today and saw somehow the Talladega video didnt do well. It was one of my favorite did you upload shorts of it? I dont really wetch shorts but just an idea on how many to get some more traction on it. Keep up the good work brewzel you really make my day better
First video of yours I've watched. Personally not much of a drinker myself in terms of volume but I love bourbon every so often. Buffalo Trace is my go to and now I'm on the lookout for benchmark, thanks to you.
If you ever have the opportunity to hit a "Total Wine and More" do so, quite the big box booze experience.
Cheers!
as someone that lives in Cincinnati, the liquor stores in Ohio aren't that great because it's Ohio. All Ohio liquor stores are supplied by the state. The state makes all the buys. So the selection can be limited and most of the stores have the same exact stuff. That is why Kentucky tends to have a better selection.
Lived in Covington Ky. Across the river. Spent hours at the party source. Amazing store.
You can age those bourbon county stouts for years but keep ‘em in a cool dark place. Cellar temp is typically 50-55 degrees. They’ll mature well. Years ago before Goose Island sold to AB I went to Chicago and took the train alone for the first time down to their now defunct brewpub at Wriglyville. I got a bomber (22oz) bottle of the bourbon county stout and one of the coffee version. Back then they were white whales and not widely distributed. Smuggled them back in my checked luggage to Dallas where I lived at the time. I used to do a lot of beer hunting and trading back in the day. I don’t know if you get Firestone Walker brewing in Alabama but their Parabola barrel aged stout and Sucaba barrel aged barleywine are incredible. Also Boulevard Brewing (Kansas city) make a few barrel aged products that are unreal!
I love the bourbon hunting videos and I’m learning a ton. Also a former Corrado SLC owner!
Old Grand Dad brings back good memories.
Love that Party Source is in there. And New Riff shares the parking lot.
Next time you’re in the area check out M & S liquor and liquor city in Florence they are within 15 mins of new riff Both have pappy, Blantons, E. H. Taylor, and a variety of Wellers
As someone who has worked as a bartender as well as in a liquor store, once you see what alcohol has done to some people's lives, it definitely pushes you to not drink. It isn't everyone, hell it isn't most people, but there are definitely some...
More shops should offer too buy pours for the better bottles . Great video🎉
I think right around the 20min mark is perfect for each video. Keep up the great work!
