I'M GOIN TO GRAB A BOTTLE NOW!! THANKS FOR THE REVIEW

It's been very hot, in Louisiana, as you can imagine. I like this pilsner, by the way.

Like water and revenge cheap beer is best served chilled. Most lagers, even the worst ones, taste bearable when served cold. PS: Aldi have recently reduced their Brasserie lager alcohol content from 4% down to to 3.4%. Thanks for nothing Aldi.

I haven't picked up any of this one yet. Glad you enjoyed it.

Why didn't you just test your theory by sticking your glass in the fridge for 15 minutes and re tasting it at a colder temp??

Looks like a lovely bike but you don’t need an e-bike for your riding on your video.

Great review. This should be at 90...in theory, would be amazing there. It is still quite enjoyable, albeit overpriced by $40.

I got a bottle of Wild Turkey 101 straight Rye. It's impressive.

Great review mate . I’ve tried it and yes …. Pretty bland and boring. 🙃. Cheers

I found this topic after high on weed

When will you be doing an update on the bottles you have?

I had this a few weeks ago. It was around $68. I wasn't impressed. I preferred the $48 normal single barrel

wondering if the guiness nitro surge requires that fancy gadget?

Good honest findings here Tom. Good to see you not just blindly jump on the Springbank fanboy bandwagon. (not to say I'm not a fan as I absolutely love the stuff and just wish I could get my hands on some more!). Interesting you say about temperature. I've never really noticed it before, but if I'm honest, if I think a whisky tastes different from one taste to the next, I just put it down to my taste buds and never really thought about temperature difference. One famous whisky expert, Jim Murray, even heats his whisky up by putting his glass in a bowl of boiling water before drinking!

Do you ever add a drop of water to your whisky?? It's seriously worth a go, the Whisky can change enormously.

How hot was it at the time? I'm in Florida and regularly drink my whisky at about 77f/25c room temperature.

Agreed ! Summer heat / temperature changes the profile of Malts - a lot !

The whisky has just oxidised in the bottle which all whiskies do over time. It will change again over more time which isn't a problem. Temperature variation in the UK won't harm the whisky, just don't leave it in direct sunlight which will really alter the flavour to the point of no return.

I'm not totally convinced by this theory. Temperature is a factor in the drinking experience for sure but I suppose the fill level and time has played a bigger role here. The first bottle I had, I was living in Vietnam (not exactly cool) and it was whopper. It'll be interesting to see your updates in the autumn and winter.

Here in the UK it's a great alternative to either Jack Daniels #7 or Jim Beam white label with all three being the 80 proof budget options from three of the biggest heritage distillers in America, if I had the choice (of which I do) I would choose BT over JD or JB on any given day ! Besides the fact that I do currently have three bottles in my collection whereas I don't have either of the JD or JB offerings, that speaks volumes really ! Easy drinking, smooth tasting, and a classic bourbon at a great price (normally around the £19 mark at most supermarkets) which is a great introduction to any new bourbon drinker and makes for a great daily sipper for any bourbon aficionado. The nearest I've ever got to it is the Evan Williams black label, which although it is smooth and full of all those classic bourbon flavours it does however lack that certain something (mainly finish tbh) that BT offers. For me (here in the UK anyway) there is no better option for a budget friendly, low proof and has those classic bourbon flavours than the Buffalo Trace Kentucky straight whiskey. Personally I'd love to get hold of a 90 proof version just to try it and see how it fairs at the higher proof point but alas ! Here in the UK it's a hard beast to get hold of and if you do it's pretty darn expensive. It's a staple in my collection (if you hadn't already guessed that, lol), it's so easy drinking it's dangerous......even at just 80 proof, lol.

Do they still hold the annual sheep show? I went there for the show in 1964 or 65. It was an amazing experience with farmers bringing Swaledale sheep from all over. I was with a farmer from Rosedale on the North York Moors.

To have it - Toceny, is something else.

Great video

Hands down one of the best Bocks in the world!

I'm Irish... How dare you... haha you could be right... But we will never admit it

SC American, love the Woodford Double Oaked personally. I have had Blantons, and love it, but it’s too expensive. Larceny is another great Bourbon.

Have you tried their Leann Folláin stout?

Genuinely no idea why Guinness has such a reputation, more brand over substance. There are far better stouts in Ireland

Always partial to a single malt, I remember going on detachment to RAF Machrihanish, now Campbelltown airport, back in the eighties. One of my colleagues picked up what looked like a milk crate of Springbank. Unlabeled bottles and pretty much clear, it was awful. The only thing I've ever had that was worse was Zivania in Cyprus, highly alcoholic dish water!

Se puede cambiar el corcho o ta lapa de las botellas por una hermetica y se conserve mejor cuando tienes media botella, servirá usar el gas que utilizan en las botellas de vino tinto? Saludos y grax

I've tried them all the same boring and tasteless, independent breweries make a far better stout, Sam Smith oatmeal stout is excellent and black sheep stout is also good

Brilliant review👍

My review was basically it’s bland and boring 🙄

Hey! Great review and video! What is the size of your bike, and what's your height? I'm between sizes M and L and have to decide which one to order. Your input could be helpful.

Look, if it was Christopher Hitchens’ daily drink. If it was good enough for our greatest contrarian and big- thinker, it’s good enough for me.

Well I finally got around to doing a simultaneous 'head to head' along with you in this video, I must admit that the WR has a certain something to it, whether that's the vanilla on the nose, the sweetness on the palate or even the medium finish with the gentle woody heat I don't really know, it's a lovely pour and one that seems to get better as I go through the bottle (tbh I wasn't overly impressed with it when I first opened it) which has been open now for about 2 months. As for the WRDO, well it's very hard to believe that they both started life as the same thing ! I don't get the same vanilla on the nose in fact it's a bit more of those darker dried fruits, a hint of chocolate mixed with a tad of char, the taste is so rich and decadent (as you quite rightly stated) and the finish is a very pleasant oaky spice which is more drying than the WR (which is I suppose largely due to the double barrel process). For the money the WR is a great pour as it is in the sub £30 category and hits differently enough from the old favourites (WT101 & BT) to make it a viable purchase for when you want something different but then again it's only a few quid away from Eagle Rare which is an entirely different beast and one that I do feel trumps it. As for the WRDO, well at £45 (what I paid for mine) it does fall into the same price category as the WT Rare Breed (again I paid £45 for mine) but it holds it's own in much the same way that the standard WR does when compared to WT101 as they're both different enough from each other to be enjoyed without trying to compare the two too deeply. Okay the WTRB is a proof monster and has such a flavour package which makes it hard to beat but the WRDO with it's lower rye content cooks up enough different flavours to make it equally as enjoyable in the right situation/moment. The WR will definitely be replaced when I finish the bottle whereas the WRDO will be all down to getting it for the right price, I wouldn't pay anything over £45 for another bottle but I'd happily snap up a backup bottle for anywhere between £35 to £40 ! Thanks for taking the time to make the video, but I will get around to doing the Sazarac rye Vs the Bulliet rye (swig-a-long video, lol) next as I've managed to get both bottles now, cheers Tom, you're a star !

Thanks for sharing this. Planning on buying one of the Grizl bikes soon myself, so watching this was super helpful.

Brilliant, my lad

Prefer King Goblin at 6.6% maybe that is about the same as the original Ruby?

I like your review and agree. I prefer a small ice cube in my bold bourbons and it transforms into a much more mellow yet delicious drink. Cheers 🥃

Definitely Dickel and it's legally a bourbon. Think about Tennessee whiskey as bourbon plus. IE a subcategory.

Lidl now selling the imported/Czech brewed version £1.79 500ml. Seems to be permanent.

Outstanding Review - So engaging and passed really well👍

19yr old Bourbon, hmmm yum, yum, lol

What glasses are you wearing? I can hardly see what it says and I like to know what I'm eating. They should give a free magnifier with each pack. A little expensive would save the planet by changing their packaging, nasty plasticeee type of pack. Other very nice taste . Less packaging and more meat please

You, YOU Sir! are doing brilliant content. I understood that very clearly. Very informative & watchable. Keep it coming.

The happiness says it all mate 🎉

What a great episode loved it nice work cheers 👍🍻

Try a Gruibinger Brunnenbier...it is also an unfiltered beer from Germany and very very popular. I bet you'll love it very much. It comes in smaller bottles of 0.33 litres with a plop lid.

Every time a take only a sip from any Kellerbier I get a headache as big as the moon...and I certainly do not know as to why.
