This week we have a doozy of a show for you as Gary drinks Woodford Reserve Wheat Whiskey while David has Christian Moerlein Lager.

Woodford Reserve Wheat Whiskey has wheat as the dominant grain, making up 52% of the mash bill. It also has malt, corn, and rye, and boasts fruit and floral flavors. It comes in at 90 proof and has a spicy palate with a dry finish.

Christian Moerlein Lager is a traditional lager brewed with malted barley, noble hops and pure water true to the German reinheitsgebot. David tells about the new owners of the Moerlein brand and how they are reviving not only that brand, but also Little Kings and Hudepohl and also renovating three historic breweries in Cincinnati.

It's also a busy news week and we cover all of the following stories:
