Beast Masters Club

This week on the pod, take a con-law class taught by Alex Laufer and John Carrabus out of America's Booze Capital (DC). Learn what One Eight owes to Smooth Ambler (what timing!), how the guys were inspired by the Constitution (hint…1.8), and about the joys of experimentation. Most importantly, get the scoop on future One Eight releases (!).

This week, the boys are joined by three special guests - Alan and James from A.D. Laws Whiskey House, and the famed whiskey warrior (or Parisian Pirate?) Jake Cahill of Skurnik Wines.

They discuss the beautiful marriage of the right barrel with the right whiskey, the creativity in their recipes, two vs. three vs. four grain bourbon, muffin tops, and the team, the team, the TEAM.

They also share a special announcement near the end. Listen and sip along with us!

This week on the pod, the boys (and you, you're welcome) are graced with sage wisdom from Mark Coffman of Town Branch. He talks about the secrets of St. Jame's Gate, pot stilled bourbon, the life-changing magic of leaping, and letting where you land be tomorrow's problem.

While you're listening, check out their Irish sisters over at Pearse Lions Whiskey.

How do you drink your whiskey? Rectally, in a lab setting?

If it's gonna be that kinda party, I'll stick my d*ck in the mashed potatoes.

This week on the pod, the Beast-y Boys explore all things Starlight Distillery. These beautiful 4 year old barrels will have you fighting for your right to GET A BOTTLE ON FRIDAY.

This week on the pod, listen to the boys taste the first of six Pinhook installments, and disclose a brand-new-very-exciting arrangement...

All of your preconceived notions about light whiskey? Leave them at Gene Nassif's door. This week, the co-founder of Obtanium Whiskey from Cat's Eye Distillery joins the Beasts to give some hot takes, share some light whiskey wisdom, and surprise the boys with a brand new treat or two.

Welcome back, Beasties, for L'Encantada Lasalle Part 2.

This Friday, you've got a lot to be thankful for. Join the Beasts and Nicolas Palazzi of PM Spirits for a conversation on life, love and Armagnac.

And NEXT FRIDAY…well, you know what next Friday is. We just can't stop talking about it - we're that damn excited.

Wow. Just WOW. This is one of our most special pods for one of our most special barrels.

The whiskey world is going nuts for L'Encantada. It's a small bottler of hand-picked single barrel Armagnac casks (sound familiar Willett fans?) and they are finding absolute treasures. They also do an incredibly beautiful presentation (ahem, again sound familiar?) with their signature orange wax.

On Episode 45 (Part 1), the Masters discuss the armagnac craze and give you a taste of what's to come for beasts everywhere. Follow along to whet your armagnac appetite, and then SET YOUR ALARMS for next Friday to get your bottle.

Look no further. Listen to this week's pod, Episode 44: Catoctin Creek featuring Scott Harris, for a whole-ass science class, a lesson in how to get an unadvised loan, the pressures of whiskey drinking as a woman, and the touching story of perfecting the family business of creating craft spirits.

We promised a Part II...same day, same time, same place.

Eric and the Smoky Beast take you around the world in a supplemental sampling that has the Smoky Beast stumbling home.

Sip along on with the boys on your Capitan Brownbeard. Or on a pina colada. We don't judge.
