August 30, 2017 #132 Adam Robinson - Deadshot
Adam Robinson joins us on the heels of a noble effort in the Bombay Sapphire Most Imaginative Bartender Competition. It's been quite a journey from his early days in TV production in New York to now mixing some of Portland's best cocktails with his anchor laid down at Deadshot.

Adam talks about what's on the horizon and the changes planned for that popular pop up, how he imagines his recipes and how best to cut off a heavy alcohol consumer.
