The boys try a distillery-only release from Lux Row that costs a pretty penny. Speaking of pretty pennies, the guys discuss the beautiful (and premium) copper finishes and hefty topper. But how does the juice taste? How much does the topper weigh? All the important questions are answered. Also Dan and Stephen weigh things.

The guys finally try another bourbon staple - Evan Williams black label. How does it compare to Evan Williams white label and how good of a value is this bottom shelf offering from Heaven Hill?

The guys try Shenks Homestead 2022 from Michter's. Is it worthy of the Michter's brand? Is it worth seeking out? The guys also discuss David Carradine!

The guys are back to try another offering from Uncle Nearest for the first time in a long time with 1856. Will this 100 proof small batch blend beat out 1884? The guys also discuss memorable dates, Ryan's disgusting finger, and high-end hotels.

The boys are joined by one of Dan's childhood friends who sent in a bottle from Arizona - Sacred Stave. This is their cabernet finished bourbon that is non-sourced and all from AZ. Is it worth picking up a bottle the next time you are in AZ? Is this a whiskey women would like (whatever that means)?

The guys go back to local distiller Switchgrass Spirits to try their straight bourbon whiskey finished in a stout barrel. How does this compare to the previously reviewed Straight Rye? The guys also talk about Portillo's chocolate cake (again), cigar lounges, and the Dallas Cowboys' horrible final play.

The guys try another barrel pick - Rebel Distiller's Collection (picked by St Louis Bourbon Society). How does this wheated whiskey compare to some others they have had? How does it compare to Ezra Distiller's Collection? Other topics include Stephen's t-shirt, the mute button, the origin of the Rebel Yell song. Also another check in on what fruits (and cereals) Ryan has had before.

In the first show back from their holiday break, the guys start out with...something other than bourbon. An American Single Malt actually - a barrel pick of Stranahan's Barrel Strength that Dan participated in. Will Ryan finally appreciate a single malt? The guys also talk about "game changing shots", "earth-shattering liquor news", and how many ways the Tito's guy can move his boat.

The guys reflect on the year that was and Mayans but do eventually discuss their favorite and least favorite bottles of the year. What bottles surprised them? What were their favorite episodes and why do people in Chicago drink Malort?----------------------------------------------------- Would you rather watch us?

Kelly from Asbury Park joins the guys again to talk about a barrel of her own - Asbury Park Small Batch. How does batch 4 match up with their previous batch 3 which got great reviews across the board? The gang also discusses upcoming tours at Asbury Park, the future of American Single Malts, and the Busch beer family. ----------------------------------------------------- Would you rather watch us?
