You guys should check out Benny's beverage depot in Chicago, IL. It's a huge store with very good prices. I live in Detroit Michigan and I sometimes take a drive there to stock up my home bar.
😂😂😂. "I love you mom"! That was so cute! I live in Michigan....& do recognize some of the places you stopped at in Lake Orion. I live in Detroit ....usually find better prices my way....course it does depend on what you want! Lol. Red Breast 12 is good but that's whisky...lol.
i dont even drink, but you had me as a customer when they were saying the 175 of eagle was 159 and you hit them with 99$. thats customer service right there.
In Europe we either have state monopoly liquor stores with ONLY alcohol in them or no state monopoly on liquor, in which case you simply buy liquor in the grocery stores.
Like the employee says, they need to compete. Buscemi’s is a local chain of liquor stores that usually have unique snacks but also make pizza, subs, and occasionally other things.
I was trying to put my finger on why I love this series so much , and you're right. Feels like old world interactions that we don't have since the pandemic even
I’ve lived in Lake Orion my whole life and recognizing all the places you show is so amazing. I am glad you found Orion Keg and Wine it’s a great place!
alan put on a freakin show for you guys! glad you gave him some business. right in my backyard too! here we pronounce lake ore-eeyun instead of how it looks, o-ryan. just a lil tidbit for when you’re here next!
The beer barrel bourbon you saw is a bottle which is aged in some sort of barrel then taken out and a stout beer is aged in the barrel and then the bourbon is put back in the barrel and aged for a while longer. I liked it when I tried it. It’s an interesting taste from the stout. Definitely worth trying at least and I don’t think it’s too rare.
True story. Back in my early days of my bourbon hunting when EH Taylor tornado surviving came out, it just sat on the shelf. I bought one bottle and didn't think it was even worth the 69 dollars I paid. I could have bought at least a case of it. Now, this guy sold 1 for 10000 dollars, LOL. I could have put my daughter through college with bourbon
Idk how, but a gas station near where I live had EH Taylor cured oak for only 300. I bought it to have a nice bottle for when I have guests, and I thought I overpaid for it. I didn't know until halfway through the bottle, a friend who came over looked it up and saw some bottles of the stuff going online for 10× the price 😱. I'm gonna have to go clear the shelf and find a way to resell those bad boys! Lol
Selling that bottle for 10k is a slap in the face of whatever customer bought it or anyone else that shops there honestly. Above secondary pricing, bundles of shit people don't even want, no better way to disrespect your customers than to overcharge them and make them buy stuff they don't want in order to get something they do want. Throwing money at those kinds of stores as though nothing's wrong is the worst thing you can do. It empowers them to keep fucking over their customers due to their greed
Alan D is my go to spot for liquor. Great selection of bourbon. He's not lying about how good the chicken fingers are. The pizza and cookies are also pretty damn good
@@DtownBlade313 hey I'm in Detroit until the end of August. You tell me where to go in Detroit proper and I'll go within the next week and reply with my opinion of wherever you tell me to go
Traverse City Barrel proof bourbon is very good! You can't go wrong with Michigan made whiskey. Iron Fish Distillery and Journeyman Distillery also make some incredible products.
My god I’m so jealous of all these bottles you get in the States. As a UK resident who is upgrading his Scotch collection to include bourbon it always hurts seeing this when our selections are so limited. I’m desperate for a Stagg Jr and the Redwood Empire Cask Strengths.
But we are lucky to not have to pay those prices even on secondary for the stuff we have. Eagle Rare in almost any grocery store for £37, Blanton's everywhere online, including gold and SFTB. Quality over quantity.
Yeah we have a much narrower selection, but I was amazed then I first found this channel that Americans can't find buffalo trace / eagle rare/ makers mark / knob creek 12, reliably in liquor stores. I can have them at a non marked up retail price from my local store anytime I want them.
@@grimacresYour comment isn't really relevant. The "drunks" already have access to all the alcohol they want since for them, getting inebriated is the goal of the drinking. For the majority of Whiskey enthusiasts, inebriation is not the goal per se, but rather we love to enjoy the different notes and flavors we get.
Pretty amazing that a channel i've been subbed to for some time, visited one of my favorite shops. Zetouna is hands down one of the best shops in that metro area. Lived there for about a decade, went to all of it in the area. Jack really knows his stuff. 10/10 would recommend. Also strong (STRONG) production recommendation... you got two mics, throw one onto the other person speaking or add in a shotgun.
man I love watching you spend money Brewzle !! You know you made it when they got you on the TV in the liquor store and the fix you chicken fingers just don't get any better than that
These are my home town stores - I'm surprised they didn't take you over to Twisted Oak over on John R & Avon Roads. Great selection and prices as well.
This has to be my favorite, Michigan is my home! As a Bartender though I have to say I'm a bit disappointed that you didn't pick up the Beer Barrel Bourbon! New Holland, the distillery that makes it, has a fantastic selection of products. Iron Fish has to be my favorite Michigan Distillery overall and obviously you know about Valentine with their Pingree lineup. Other good local groups that I'd not hesitate to pickup would be Journeyman and Gypsy!
Man I am so jealous, I have wanted a Jack 12 so badly and I have never seen them. He was able to get 3. Hopefully my time to get lucky is coming soon. Congrats on the hunt!
The price gouging in MI for bourbon is insane, especially in SE MI. Those store have a great selection, but marking up Buffalo Trace to $37 is greedy.. I live in Northern Mi, and can regularly find Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare for state minimum pricing at box stores and grocery stores. I found Pappy 12 at Costco in TC. The liquor stores in Petoskey also get a good selection of allocated stuff at state pricing, but you have to inquire sometime. I watched a guy come in and ask what special bottles they had without buying anything else. I asked the same question as I was checking out with other bottles. I got a Weller and 1.75 Eagle Rare for my efforts.
At the Red Wagon Shoppe, you showed two scotches I really like, the Aberlour 12 year (40%ABV, 80 proof) wich is really nice, and hanging out right beside it is the Aberlour A'bunadh, which is a recreation of an original recipe. They are usually ~60% ABV or 120 proof. The A'bunadh is really nice, and I highly recommend it.
Alan D’s is the one. you can get every single thing you need without walking a mile around a grocery store. top notch food too. great guys there happy they got put on.
Also... Brewzle, You need to hunt in California. It seems like the gold rush for brown water runs deep there. Tequila is blowing up SUPER hard and CA seems to have transitioned mostly away from bourbon again so Stagg is even sitting on shelves in grocery stores (not long but that is still crazy). I'm headed to Monterey, CA pretty soon and I'm very curious to hit up a few shops.
Great video documenting your bourbon haul! At 21:00 minutes into the video I say a McKenna SB BiB 10-year that I paid about $62 for in San Antonio, TX recently and absolutely love it! The only thing it lacked for my taste was viscosity - would have liked a bit more. Other than that, I am kicking myself for not running right back that same day to grab another one!
Iron Fish is fantastic!! They're an awesome Michigan farm distillery. Their Mad Angler series is the best MI-made bourbon IMO (Bottled in Bond or Two Peninsulas if you can find it)! If you're still in state, I'll venmo you to get one for the hunt ;D
As far as RD1 goes... we just did a "tour" of their place in Lexington and the green label Amburana Oak finished stuff is super unique and cool tasting. Lots of honey overtones. Definitely worth the $60-$70 price tag. 110 proof.
I don’t even really drink, bourbon or otherwise, but I’m from the Detroit metro area and I love my state and my home so much. I really enjoyed this video thanks for sharing your experience here ❤️
I'm a MI guy, grew up in Detroit. When I turned 21 a buddy and myself started trying all kinds of different bottles, we'd get a bottle or 2 and try it out all weekend long and then next week try something else. I've had only a couple bottles that were a couple hundred dollars every once and a while but nothing north of about $350-$400 on rare occasions or maybe split the price with my buddy. That being said, my absolute personal favorite has always been Buffalo Trace ever since I tried it, and it's one of my buddy's favorites too, it's just so damn smooth and thankfully it was a cheap bottle in comparison to just about everything else we tried so we came back to it fairly often.
I kept a display shelf unit for all our finished bottles, like a trophy rack. It kind of hurt moving away and letting that go but it was just too much space.
Ive been watching you since around February this year so interesting to see you come to Michigan I live right next to one of these stores glad you enjoyed the area so much
That Johnny Smoking Gun is not designed to be drank neat…but at the distillery, they have an apricot cocktail that features it and it was one of the tastiest and most unique things I’d tasted in a long time!
Brooooo I absolutely loved this video !! Need to do more like this ! Can’t believe some of the shops you have in the US bourbon heaven ! If ever you fancy taking a guy from England real bourbon shopping hit me up 🤙🏼
The folks at Orion are lovely! Seem like such great people, I 1000% would have asked them for dinner recommendations next time! The Lebanese and Mediterranean food up there is untouched. They will blow your mind on some grape leaves, lamb shank, kibbeh etc sir!
It's nuts to see you stop in the store in my hometown, that whistle store was my main spot for less-than-common bottles. Hope you enjoyed your time in the metro Detroit area! I don't miss it too bad but good memories there.
Stout beer gets aged in barrels pretty frequently and when bourbon gets double aged (oaked) in a stout barrel, it can become chocolatey and very delicious. Brewzle missed out on that one at the 7:38 mark.
Templeton is a thumbs up. Years ago we couldn’t get it in Minnesota so my dad would bring back a few cases from Iowa every time he went down. Great history too….

Just got a bottle of beams royal emperor bottled in 1952 sold in 1958
this was the best thing that ever happened to our store thank you TJ. :)
Thanks for having us!
Your store looks AWESOME. I'll definitely stop by if I'm ever in the area.
i dont even drink, but you had me as a customer when they were saying the 175 of eagle was 159 and you hit them with 99$. thats customer service right there.
I just figured out im 4hr and 53 minutes away. Time for a road trip
Makes me want to fly up there and do a visit! Haha
“What kind of a liquor store hand breads chicken fingers, makes their own ranch and pizza dough??!!” The Mitten is undefeated
"what kind of liquor store.." literally like ALL of them in metro detroit
As someone who worked at one for years, a lot. Also have great subs and tons of catering options at some.
In Europe we either have state monopoly liquor stores with ONLY alcohol in them or no state monopoly on liquor, in which case you simply buy liquor in the grocery stores.
Lot 9f places here or gas station food game is un matched

"We have a selection, not a collection" Quote of the year! Love these videos!
I want a brewzle shirt with that slogan on it.
Which is bigger: Selection or collection?
Wow, that Alan D's shop really is all about treating the customer right! Good for them.
Always! Appreciate the love.
the community feeling in these videos is addicting. wish more of the worlds interactions went this way
I was trying to put my finger on why I love this series so much , and you're right. Feels like old world interactions that we don't have since the pandemic even
I’ve lived in Lake Orion my whole life and recognizing all the places you show is so amazing. I am glad you found Orion Keg and Wine it’s a great place!
Where living is on a congested highway.
I grew up in LO as well. Now in Clarkston. It is cool to see familiar places. And TJ, for future visits, it is pronounced O-ree-on, not o-RYE-on.
I live in this area and I think its supper cool that you came by and checkout out some nearby places. Opened up my eyes to what is out there.
The whistle store was my main stop when I lived in romeo, great for uncommon bottles of any variety. I got mead there.
@30:00 "and I made you guys some chicken tenders"...what an absolute legend...edit: and they make their own ranch!!
Alan is a nice guy but he is VERY good at what he does. Hard to walk out without a purchase.
He was really funny and chill. Glad to see people so passionate about the bourbon and not in it for the money.
@@1Jetsurfidk about that. He makes pretty good money on his stuff. But, in his defense, he’s a hard working guy with a lot of variety.
I gotta check out Alans just for the chicken fingers and egg rolls now.
Live right down the road and haven’t been here, def have to check it out
@@jondilly1974 anyone willing to drop as much as this guy does on whiskey is NOT on this venture for the money, its a genuine passion
alan put on a freakin show for you guys! glad you gave him some business. right in my backyard too! here we pronounce lake ore-eeyun instead of how it looks, o-ryan. just a lil tidbit for when you’re here next!
Good stuff Brewzle. Shoutout to the people who helped you find the right places. Those are real ones.

Next time you are in town try:

Kako's (Birmingham)

I’m not a bourbon hunter and to be honest I don’t even drink much but I love watching this channel. I’m amazed at the knowledge and variety
I’m the guy in the blue Long Drink shirt😂😂😂 it was a pleasure meeting you, and happy hunting to all:)!
33:42 Ricky, Julian and Bubbles would be proud !
Alan D is my go to spot for liquor. Great selection of bourbon. He's not lying about how good the chicken fingers are. The pizza and cookies are also pretty damn good
“I have a selection not a collection “ . Should be on your T-shirts 👍🥃🇨🇦
TJ, I love your attitude toward local stores. Thanks! Cheers! 🥃
Titled “Detroit” but stayed an hour or more away the entire trip.
Detroit proper is almost entirely ghetto liquor stores with little whiskey variety, I've been scouring the area pretty heavily.
@@BigBadJerryRogers you have Zero Clue Lmao
Rochester Hills MI

Have been buying from Brandon and his family for years they are great people!
Was just about to say the same.
shout out brandon! good people
The Zetouna family is amazing and very well respected in the community!!!
Never heard of them lived here my whole life.
@@tipsysmichigander6483he’s right they are highly respected! (No idea what we’re talking about)

One of my favorite videos of yours, TJ! Hope youre having fun and thanks for the entertainment!
Hand breaded chicken tenders at a liquor store sounds like a dream
What a pain the butt to have everything behind the counters.
every inch of space in a store is directly related to selling potential. you don't waste space.
I love seeing my local liquor store on this channel. 😅😅😅 yall are awesome. Got me more into whiskey.
One the the best burbon hunts I've seen. God I love Michigan
Stupid for spending so much on bourbon? No sir!! This is your passion!! And like you always say, it’s just money. Cheers, TJ!
Yea it's pretty stupid
That Knob Creek cask strength rye is FANTASTIC. The one barreled in 2009 won 2nd place in Whiskey Advocate's top 20 of the year (2018).
He missed out on this one
I don’t want to wait, I want it now! I want it now!!
The traverse city whiskey co stuff is really good. Especially the barrel proof selections

These are my home town stores - I'm surprised they didn't take you over to Twisted Oak over on John R & Avon Roads. Great selection and prices as well.
It’s so cool seeing you visit my hometown!!!!
It’s insane to me that Eagle Rare is so expensive in the Midwest when I can pick it up at my local liquor store for $18

I enjoy seeing some of the bigger bottles selling looking forward to seeing the review videos of them later on!
You actually came to Detroit! This makes me happy to see we have some decent stuff too.
Well metro Detroit

10/10 love Aberlour 12, 10 is also fantastic
Excited to see him in Wisconsin! Hopefully he’ll connect with someone who knows the best stores
Chateau de Vin in Rochester Hills is slept on. If you're in the area again, check 'em out!
As a liquor retailer, nothing personal, but we hate it when we have people come in with cameras asking for allocated.
😭😭😭😭😭
Gotta sell it somehow
Is it because you don't want to have to say how much you're gouging on the prices?
Alan D’s is the one. you can get every single thing you need without walking a mile around a grocery store. top notch food too. great guys there happy they got put on.
Also... Brewzle, You need to hunt in California. It seems like the gold rush for brown water runs deep there. Tequila is blowing up SUPER hard and CA seems to have transitioned mostly away from bourbon again so Stagg is even sitting on shelves in grocery stores (not long but that is still crazy). I'm headed to Monterey, CA pretty soon and I'm very curious to hit up a few shops.
Great video documenting your bourbon haul! At 21:00 minutes into the video I say a McKenna SB BiB 10-year that I paid about $62 for in San Antonio, TX recently and absolutely love it!

Iron Fish is fantastic!! They're an awesome Michigan farm distillery. Their Mad Angler series is the best MI-made bourbon IMO (Bottled in Bond or Two Peninsulas if you can find it)! If you're still in state, I'll venmo you to get one for the hunt ;D
Agree 100%
As far as RD1 goes... we just did a "tour" of their place in Lexington and the green label Amburana Oak finished stuff is super unique and cool tasting. Lots of honey overtones. Definitely worth the $60-$70 price tag. 110 proof.
$300 for two JD12s is a hell of a deal considering it's on the shelf everywhere for that price for a single bottle.
Interesting. I picked up a bottle of 12Y batch 1 for $90.
"This is the life..." indeed.... GREAT VIDEO!
Love these videos, keep them coming. And don't pretend you don't love buying all those bottles haha
I don’t even really drink, bourbon or otherwise, but I’m from the Detroit metro area and I love my state and my home so much. I really enjoyed this video thanks for sharing your experience here ❤️
110 on a Russell's store pick? Ouch! My local has them for 76, still haven't talked myself into it.
I'm a MI guy, grew up in Detroit. When I turned 21 a buddy and myself started trying all kinds of different bottles, we'd get a bottle or 2 and try it out all weekend long and then next week try something else. I've had only a couple bottles that were a couple hundred dollars every once and a while but nothing north of about $350-$400 on rare occasions or maybe split the price with my buddy.

As someone from the area got a laugh when you said O' ryan lakes. Great video!!!
Ive been watching you since around February this year so interesting to see you come to Michigan I live right next to one of these stores glad you enjoyed the area so much
Thanks for showing the scotches, really appreciate that.
I absolutely hate when liquor stores put their bottles BEHIND the counter.
I absolutely love the Knob Creek twice barreled Rye. Pick one up next time you see it
The best Stout are aged in Barrels. So barrel aging beer is very common
That Johnny Smoking Gun is not designed to be drank neat…but at the distillery, they have an apricot cocktail that features it and it was one of the tastiest and most unique things I’d tasted in a long time!
From Austin, first time viewer, watched untill the end, had the buffulo for Thanksgiving...
Nice informative... Getting into this craft whiskeys....
Alan D's guy has the right attitude. All about making a deal. He loses a bit on the 2 for $300 deal but gets tons of business from the video.
Lmao bro IK its an ad, but I think the bourbon will kill you before the coffee lmaooo.
Brooooo I absolutely loved this video !! Need to do more like this ! Can’t believe some of the shops you have in the US bourbon heaven ! If ever you fancy taking a guy from England real bourbon shopping hit me up 🤙🏼
You're talking about a 1.75 litre of Eagle Rare not outside of the bottling warehouse, I HAD a 1.75L store pick Eagle Rare. It just got polished off.
Born & raised here in LO, thanks for visiting.
This video actually made me very happy. I'm just north of MI and now I know they have some good stores and selections.
I don’t drink bourbon but I really enjoy watching you go bourbon hunting and taste reviews 🔥🇺🇸🇺🇸😎
Love orion keg, I live right up the road! Awesome to see you support them, I’ve never watched your channel but will be now
The folks at Orion are lovely! Seem like such great people, I 1000% would have asked them for dinner recommendations next time!
The Lebanese and Mediterranean food up there is untouched. They will blow your mind on some grape leaves, lamb shank, kibbeh etc sir!

Good Ol'. ... Red Stag is my favorite..Dark black cherry SMOOTH Bourbon!!!!My Dads fav is Old Grandad. He said always has been..always will..
HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend travers city whiskey company, gotta give it a shot!
I'm so happy my state you had a good Time, born and raised in Southwest Detroit Michigan
good to see everyone being so nice around where I live.
I don’t particularly enjoy bourbon, but this channel beats watching tv, keep up the great content.
They kid at 27:32 I went to high school with. It’s been 10 years since graduation but crazy to see him randomly in the video 🤣
Michigander here and we have the best of a few things. Will keep them to myself as we don’t want all of our secrets getting out! Michiganders know.
Templeton is a thumbs up. Years ago we couldn’t get it in Minnesota so my dad would bring back a few cases from Iowa every time he went down. Great history too….
Macs Liqior in Taylor Michigan on pardee and northline roads . Well stocked. Ask for Johnny.
It was cool to see you in the areas I grew up in brings back a lot of memories!
Michigan has some friendly people, makes me really wanna visit!
