Evan Williams Extra Aged with Dan, Steve & Alex
Evan Williams Kentucky Straight Bourbon Extra Aged. What is it with bourbons and using their full name? Must be an American thing. There’s another Evan Quentin Williams the fourth or whatever […]
Dead Crow Bourbon Beer with Matt, Dan, Brian & Al
Hat-tip to Colin for pointing me in the direction of Dead Crow Bourbon Beer. Not necessarily a ringing hat-tip, but a good lead nonetheless. Dead Crow Bourbon Beer is a… […]
Gordon Graham’s Black Bottle with Dan, Goran, Steve, Brian & Matt
Steve’s first submission – actually, that’s not true. Steve provided the tiny bottles for the Glengoyne and Old Fettercairn reviews, but he wasn’t around to review… not that there would […]
Preview! Innis & Gunn Bourbon Pale Ale with Dan & Alex
Gotta love Twitter. I saw a promo for the Bourbon Pale Ale from Innis & Gunn’s UK account, so I tagged the Canadian account and asked if there were any […]
BattleScotch Royale! The English Whisky Co with Dan, Goran, Steve, Matt & Brian
You knew it had to happen. We haven’t had a setup for a proper BattleScotch! Royale this good for a while now. Obviously we had to pit the contents of […]
The English Whisky Co Chapter Ten Sherry Finish with Dan, Goran, Steve, Julia, Brian & Matt
The last of the limey bastards, Chapter Ten from The English Whisky Co is their sherry cask bottling. They’ve used Olorosso casks, which we first heard of from an Innis […]
The English Whisky Co Chapter Nine Peated with Dan, Goran, Steve, Brian & Matt
Finally, back on track! We’ve got so many reviews in the hopper right now, y’all don’t even know. DON’T EVEN KNOW. Beers, gins & whiskies, new countries on the board! […]
BattleScotch! Chinook v Gibson’s Finest Sterling with Dan
Aw yeah aw yeah! Haven’t had a BattleScotch in a while! And this is a real unfortunate pairing to bring back this awesome original concept that we thought up, two […]
Gibson’s Finest Sterling with Dan
Fancy photo for a tiny bottle. That’s from a hike up in Jasper. I know we’d sort of sworn off any further Gibson’s after the Finest/Finest Rare debacle (DEBACLE I […]
Chinook Canadian Whisky with Dan
First off, apologies for the delay in the English Whisky Co reviews, but moving has prevented doing a tasting. In the meantime… Chinook Canadian Whisky: just don’t. It’s been a […]
The English Whisky Co Chapter Six with Julia
The first of the The English Whisky Co trio, the Chapter Six. So glad this thing survived the flight back from Edmonton, packed full of dirty laundry. I don’t think […]
Teaser – The English Whisky Co
Just a quick post to pimp these upcoming reviews from The English Whisky Co: Chapter 6, a 3y single malt, Chapter 9, a 3y peated single malt, and Chapter 10, […]
Amrut Single Malt with Davey
I have been travelling a lot lately. Michigan, Cambridge Bay, Vancouver, and this past week I added Jasper. In two days I head to Thunder Bay. Aside from seeing some […]
Fucking Fireball Goddamned Cinnamon Garbage Alleged Whisky with No One
I can’t believe I’m doing this. I haven’t tasted it yet. It’s sitting in a Glencairn glass between me and my keyboard. I am currently writing around it, through the […]
Gibson’s Finest Rare 12y with Davey
Okay… This is a head-scratcher. This might technically be a Round 2, but it’s hard to say. We’ve had Gibson’s Finest 12y before, but it didn’t have the word “Rare” on it, […]
The Pourhouse, Gastown, Vancouver with Brenna & Devin
On Wednesday I flew in to Vancouver for work, and last night I met up with my sister and brother-in-law who live out here. I haven’t had a chance to […]
Trafalgar Mighty Oak Imperial Oaked Brown Ale
It’s been a while since we’ve had a new cask aged beer, especially one not from Innis & Gunn. It’s also been a while since I did a solo review, […]
Death’s Door Gin with Peter & Virginia
Last night I had a brief visit with some old friends in Toronto, and I took a bottle of gin with me to say hello. I found Death’s Door Gin […]
Ty·Ku Soju with Davey & Alex
Ty·Ku Soju is an odd one. An Japanese-referencing take on a Korean beverage, made by two American bros. Seriously, they got into this so they could get drunk and “maintain […]
Traverse City Whiskey Company 4y Straight Bourbon with Dan & Julia
The second review from my business trip to Michigan! I was going to be pretty disappointed if I didn’t find something local in MI, USA. It’s a working state, and […]
Canadian Club Reserve 9y with Davey & Alex
Heyheyhey fellow whiskynauts. I’m overnighting in beautiful Edmonton International Airport (YEG) and so a well written, hilarious, provocative or fact-checked post is just not in the works this week. So, […]
Cooper’s Cask Coffee with Dan & Julia
This is pretty awesome. John at Cooper’s contacted me to see if we’d be interested in giving whisky cask aged coffee a taste. It’s one of those happy coincidences that […]
Labatt Prohibition Series Bourbon Barrel Ale with Brad
I spent a few days down in (relatively) sunny Michigan for a Michigan Municipal League tradeshow, and stumbled across another Canadian. Well, not… not Canadian beer, like Molson Canadian Beer, […]
2 Gingers with Dan
We haven’t had an Irish whiskey in a while (wait.. fact check…woah). We haven’t actually had anything from Ireland since May, and no irish whiskeys for a year and three […]
