Live True, Preferably With Dewar’s
It’s not certain if this is how John Dewar Sr. would have done it or perhaps it is just how they do things in Spain – but either way it seems odd that there would be an entire advertisement for Dewar’s Scotch Whisky in Spain showing many younger people not only not playing soccer but also not actually possessing a glass containing Dewar’s – never mind being seen drinking said […]
Selena Gomez Meets Jack Daniels On Her 21st Birthday
Normally, pop princess Selena Gomez and Jack Daniels whiskey would not be two names you expect to see in the same sentence, but such is the popularity of whiskey these days that it has come to this – Gomez admitting to talk show host Jay Leno that she did indeed meet Jack Daniels -and took some shots at him – on her 21st birthday for her first legal drinks. Of […]
100-Year-Old Whiskey Evaporates Into Man’s Mouth
John Saunders, a 62-year-old caretaker in Pennsylvania, was officially charged this week with stealing nearly half of the 104 bottles of Old Farm Pure Rye whiskey that was found in his landlord’s house and which he was supposed to be safeguarding. Well, he kept it safe alright – Saunders kept the contents of nearly 50 of those bottles safely residing in his mouth over the past few years until landlord […]
Whiskey Winds Up Being Worth Rebellion
Back in the day – specifically July 1794 – the residents of the newly created United States of America didn’t much cotton to the notion of having their whiskey taxed according to the bright idea of then-treasurer Alexander Hamilton, so they did what they were best at – rebelled. When the fledgling U.S. government being led by its initial president George Washington, sent a tax collector to the ironically named […]
Beam Puts 2 Gingers In Charge Of Whiskey World Domination
It used to be that the people who liked whiskey [or whisky] were a select group – a real select group – but that was before the big distilleries discovered just how much they could monkey with the taste [oak, then honey, now blackberry and a million others] and how much money they could make by appealing to those who really did not like the taste of a traditional bourbon […]
Whiskey Girl Is Comic-Con 2013 Afterparty Stop
Usually, whiskey and Comic-Con don’t hold hands but it’s 2013 and whiskey is hot, hot, hot and with Comic-Con 2013 a mere week and a half away – like you didn’t know – there’s even more opportunity for whiskey to be a gateway drink for 25-year olds than ever before. Especially since the San Diego bar Whiskey Girl [located at 702 Fifth Avenue in the Gaslamp Quarter] is the proud […]
Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey Has A Familiar Buzz
The Jack Daniel’s bee is back – in a television commercial where the King Bee and his buddies sniff out the only joint in town [apparently] that has Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey whiskey… [which just so happens to be the country’s largest selling honey-flavored whiskey, did we mention that?] The ad also supports JD’s summer sweepstakes [jacksummerswarm.com] where entrants may vie for prizes after detailing their most swesome summer moments […]
Lob Your Knob Into The Creek Sweepstakes
As long as you are over the age of 21 and do not reside in Washington, D.C., you are eligible to enter the Knob Creek National Summer Sweepstakes which began earlier this month. The grand prize is a chance to tour the Knob Creek distillery at the Jim Beam American Stillhouse in Clermont, Kentucky with Master Distiller Fred Noe on September 27-29, 2013 and afterward, enjoy a personal grill-out session […]
Whiskey Has A New Flavor
It used to be, back in the day, you could tell the whiskey drinker in the crowd. He – and it had to be a “he” because if it was a “she” you probably had some additional things to worry about besides your garden variety whiskey addiction – would most likely be an older fellow and be sporting a beard or, at the very least, a very professor-like persona which […]
Kevin Spacey Gets First Shot
If you already like Kevin Spacey then you will probably like him even more when you find out that he has teamed with fellow actor Willem Dafoe in an indie film project sponsored by the Jameson Whiskey. The way it works is this – Spacey’s film production company accepts entries for short films that must star his friend Dafoe and not include explicit product placement nor excessive drinking. Spacey selects […]
Whiskey Has Little Effect On Your John Thomas
So this is what it has come to in our society, eh? The recent prevalence of whiskey/whisky as the liquor du jour [replacing vodka, we can only presume] has brought us to the next logical step in the guy brain – specifically, how will whiskey imbibing affect the rigidity of my penis when it comes time for the big show? Yes, there are people – men, usually – who want […]
Whiskey Discovered By Vegas, Baby!
Whiskey or whisky or bourbon or whatever you want to call it and however you want to spell it has always been easily found in Las Vegas from bottom of the barrel varieties to the well-aged, exquisitely coddled high end brown alcoholic liquids. The difference now during the whiskey boom is the relative shortage of fine whiskies coupled with the fact that the casinos have discovered they can now charge […]
It Is Always Beer Hunting Season
When Michael Jackson first stepped on the floor with his brothers Tito, Marlon and …oh, wait a minute, wrong Michael Jackson. The Michael Jackson who shares his name with with that “other” Michael Jackson is noted for his beer hunting ability rather than his ABC’s…unless it is the ABC’s of beer. Michael Jackson of “Beer Hunter” television series fame has several other things in common with that other Michael Jackson […]
Whisky And E3
In case you may have been wondering how whisky and coverage of E3 collide – here is your answer. In case you are wondering what E3 stands for, it is Electronic Entertainment Expo and it is held in Los Angeles during the next three days. That means you have to like video games – a lot. If you like whisky and video games – a lot – then you have […]
Beer And The Pool
Father’s Day is rapidly approaching and if you haven’t already devised what your plans will be for dear old Dad, then SpaNautica – the spa at the swanky Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Marina Del Rey, California – has a Plan B option for you. Relaxing poolside with a beer after a therapeutic massage delivered by Kate Upton and other members of Maxim’s Hot 100. Okay, so that last part was our […]
Wash, Rinse, Repeat For Maker’s Mark
First, Maker’s Mark wants to begin adding water to their bourbon in a desperation attempt to capture as much of the whiskey boom as possible in an industry that typically requires time [not looking at you, Cleveland Whiskey] to properly age bourbon. The backlash from that bright idea was so harsh that it forced MM to back off their plans. That went so well that MM has now decided that […]
