I learned to toss the sugar cube in then the bitters then just a light splash of club soda to help muddle the sugar cube down. But it’s barely enough to get soak into the sugar cube and help break it down quickly.
I absolutely love bourbon old fashion. But the abomination that is a Wisconsin old fashion really isn't bad. Just make sure you change expectations for the first one.
Luv the accent at the end, I just got into a sorta argument with a friend recently while watching the new episode of Fargo basically I told him the accent isn’t just a Minnesota thing it actually can be heard in parts of the Dakotas, Michigan, Wisconsin and even Ontario( just watch Letterkenny it’s sorta similar) Gotta show him this vid BTW the drink looks good gotta try
I truly miss the way the Milwaukee bars were between that's a 1968 to about 1988 there'll never be another crazy time like that between the Eastside the Westside bluemound road and many other places as well.. the original make of the old-fashioned in Wisconsin was an art and everybody had their own way of making.. there is one of the worst things to have to clean up if spilt in the exhaust from such a mixture would stay around for days it was so difficult to get out of the air.. I was considered the old-fashioned somewhat of a garbage drink but.. but who's to say it was a favorite of those who fought world war in Korea
As I'm from Wisconsin. I can confirm the "Up north" Old Fashioned. Went to a small bar on highway 8 out near Laona for a fish fry. And yeah. It was brandy with sprite. I was disappointed.
Everyone here is complaining. Look Wisconsin has the biggest bar culture in the US. Literally 2 on every block. They’re filled with patrons too. A Brandy old fashioned isn’t a true old fashioned. But they’re super boozy and cheap. Bartenders don’t have time to make hundreds of the original old fashioned like if you went to some over priced up scale bar. I appreciate both varieties. People don’t understand Wisconsin drinking culture unless they’ve experienced it first hand. Everyone says they have the drunkest state with the most drinkers. You’re not even on the map compared to Wisconsin. It’s a fun, friendly place.
Aw geeze bud how's your folks? Tells em I says hi. Tells ya what bud I got some rhubarb growing in the yard ya know it. Let's go cut you up some so you're Ma can make you up a pie. 😅
Super late to the game here, but let me give a proper Sconnie translation real quick once: Cripes guy, she’s been a bit. How’s yer folks? Ope, got a bunch a rhubarb growing real good in da back, so uh, take a bunch with ya, wouldja. Tell the folks I says hi, ope, and doncha forget that rhubarb now. Oh and snag a beer before ya git outta here. Real good.
I had a dream not to long ago where I at one point I was at a bar and ordered an old fashion, the bartender asked what flavor I wanted, like some sort of milkshake or something. I said vanilla bc I figured that would be the most normal flavor? Maybe I was in Wisconsin and I was supposed to choose one of those options.
As a former bartender/mixologist, this hurt the fuck out of my soul to watch. Every time someone grabs a muddler when making an old fashioned, a bartender cuts someone off in heaven.
@@chriskleps7253 Would you like me to travel the country, or the world? Make up your mind. Also, since you want to lead with insults, I’ve been to 27 countries, and 19 states. My wife and I take a major trip once every year and two smaller trips. The muddler is very old school and its purpose in many ways had run its course considering new and better ways have been developed. Instead of muddling sugar in a cold drink that won’t dissolve the sugar, it’s best to prepare your own simple syrup and then use the dilution method as to not water the drink down, and ensure that every sip tastes exactly the same.

Y’all saying this isn’t a true old fashioned seem to not realize…Wisconsin REALLY loves their brandy old fashioneds. They constituted half of Korbel’s total case sales in 2019 alone.
I had one of these once on accident and I loved it! I thought the bartender was just crazy and messed up an old fashioned. But when I tasted it I loved it.
My golf club bartender makes a drink that he calls the old man sour. Its a mixture of an old fashioned and a whiskey sour and it is absolutely delicious.
Damn. As a Minnesotan bar tender I’m so offended. But also not surprised as Wisconsin has the highest rates of DUIs every year. These are prob so easy to get down. Top the night off with a couple of spotted cows too? It’s GG!
Prefer with Graf’s 50/50 soda which makes it sour. My grandpa made them all the time growing up. Moved out of state and when ordered an old fashion I got a “proper” one. By my reaction the bartender snickered and said I must be from Wisconsin.
What brand of cherries is that? I have some Woodford cherries and I have some Luxardo cherries. Cherries are important to always try new ones. I'd love to try those.
This style of Old Fashion is what I was familiar with growing up in Northeastern Minnesota, next to Wisconsin. I like this style when I want fruity. Otherwise I go bare bones with a sweetener, a bitter(s) bourbon and Traverse City Distillery Cherries for garnish! 🥃😊
Maybe yous outta touch with the fellas back home, but the folks 'round here are pretty happy to see Rodgers gone. More of a "Thanks for coming, glad you're gone now" vibe generally from the Packers fans I've met.
Interesting. That’s not how it’s done at dive bars in northeast Wisconsin. First, it’s not called a “Wisconsin Old Fashioned” it’s called a “Whiskey/Brandy Old Fashion Sour/Sweet.” Orange slice, two maraschino cherries, a sugar cube and several dashes of Ango bitters muddled followed by a shot or two of the booze. Fill the glass (supposed to be a pint glass) with ice, top off with squirt for sour, or sprite for sweet. Garnish with cherries or green olives, your choice. Keep ‘er movin’
I gotta say I've never seen a Wisconsin old fashioned actually made this way. Having lived in WI for a long time now, I only have seen it made with the brandy/sprite way as mentioned. Such disrespect to the old fashioned name haha.
You being from Wisconsin explains a lot of questions I had.
Yup turns out hes not retarded.
Yo facts
Minn ughhh SOODDUGHHH is nearby 🤣
Happy cows come from Wisconsin 😂
Facts i been thinkkng you gota be from Wisconsin lol #414
Finding out you are from Wisconsin makes so much sense
Please explain why feel that way? I am just curious
@@vikingkrigare5329we don’t know how not to drink
@@vikingkrigare5329there’s nothing to do in Wisconsin. They made a whole show about it 😂 That 70s Show
The disrespect to a proper old fashioned is beyond palpable. 😂🥃
I must agree🙈this is not even an old fashioned anymore lol...
@@soul-the_argonaut5211all an old fashioned requires is bitters 😂 that’s all
@@murkyturkey5238 lol bitters, water, sugar, spirits... the original ingredients documented in 1806.🥲
Facts
You never muddle the orange... Surprised he didn't garnish with a cheese wedge!!!
I learned a lot about Wisconsin! That was pretty great!
As a bourbon guy, I've got to call the bellied up podcast with a serious grievance 😂
Yes!
Belly Up Gang! Why rest your hands in your pocket, when you got a perfectly good belly for that?
As a rye guy, welcome to the club
7-UP is sweet, Squirt is sour. This took me a while to get used to, being from the south.
Greetings from Door County! And a happy hodega, Go Pack Go 🧀
SQUIRT? 😳
If you’re putting club Soda in any type of old fashioned’s we can’t be pals
I learned to toss the sugar cube in then the bitters then just a light splash of club soda to help muddle the sugar cube down. But it’s barely enough to get soak into the sugar cube and help break it down quickly.
Well he used Brandy, not whiskey, soooooooooooooooooo
@@Loutliquorlikewise
If you order mixed drinks at all, you’re a queer.
At least he didn’t use southern comfort!
Note to self: never order an old fashioned in Wisconsin
If you order a mixed drink at all, you’re just a queer. Tired of you children thinking mixed drinks make you cool.
I absolutely love bourbon old fashion. But the abomination that is a Wisconsin old fashion really isn't bad. Just make sure you change expectations for the first one.
@@anthonybirch6291it’s just a different drink. Some people get bent out of shape because of the name I guess.
Love your videos! Cheers from Minnesota! 🎉
You sound like Jesse the body Ventura
i ordered an old fashion in WI once and those cheese heads didn’t warn me before they made me this abomination
Lmao
I can tell you are from Illinois
Fuckin FIB
@@skyarmyjd3 Only thing worse than a FIB is a FISH TAB. F'in Illinois Sh*t Head Towing A Boat.
Sooo many different ways to make an old fashioned. You just never know what you’re going to get any where really!
I’m from indiana and yes they mess em up everytime it’s pretty rough to drink a old fashioned from up north
Stay in Indiana then.
Same I'm from Kentucky and people completely ruin them
Ok I'm from Milwaukee, WI. I FIGURED this man had a familiar tone.
Y'all don't talk like that? What about English Canadians?
Luv the accent at the end, I just got into a sorta argument with a friend recently while watching the new episode of Fargo basically I told him the accent isn’t just a Minnesota thing it actually can be heard in parts of the Dakotas, Michigan, Wisconsin and even Ontario( just watch Letterkenny it’s sorta similar) Gotta show him this vid BTW the drink looks good gotta try
One of my faves 😊 and Dirty martini 😊
Jefferson county REP here. This is definitely a drink…I would drink. YUMMMYYYYYYYYY!!!
I love you videos you crack me up ♥️💯😆😆
Brandy old fashion sweet with cherries…my favorite
Looks delicious - great delivery.
If it’s anything like the Packers, be careful, you can only drink half of that the other half you’ll choke.
Brandy Old Fashioned’s are awesome. Definitely taking mine sour tho.
Makes sense that something that butchers something as classic and sacred as an Old Fashioned comes from Wisconsin.

I just tried one the other day for the first time !! I swear it was straight brandy with and orange peel 😂😂
I would love to try this😊😊😊
Yay a fellow Wisconsinite 😃 best drink! Love the 4 things
Should've compared it to a real old-fashioned.
As a ex FIB (I moved) I loved crossing the cheese curtain and getting on of these.

"When Aaron Rogers left us" 😂🤣
A whole glass of Brandy and a splash of Sprite… sounds about right… 😂🥃
Looks like a sweet tea that’s about to be watered down.
As someone from Wisconsin who's also a bartender, he's right lol.
Real good recipe.
Aw geeze bud how's your folks? Tells em I says hi. Tells ya what bud I got some rhubarb growing in the yard ya know it. Let's go cut you up some so you're Ma can make you up a pie. 😅
Love me a rhubarb pie, and yes, my mom has it growing in her yard, under the lilac bushes. ;)

Still isn't an old fashioned
This is elevated! 😂
The Old school Sconnie OF:
Ice
Jero OF mix
whiskey or brandy
50/50
olives or cherries
💯 I was like, No Jero's - no 50/50?! This takes WAY too much time 😂
Im a bears fan. We're "crushed" every game, every year. Welcome to my world. 😂
As some one from the real Illinois. anything north of I-70 is little Cali anyways i hate the bears. and the cubs. Go GBP
It looks good
I had one of these once on accident and I loved it! I thought the bartender was just crazy and messed up an old fashioned. But when I tasted it I loved it.
Dude !!! ; I was born and raised in Sheboygan!!!🤘🤟
Wisconsin proud baby!,
My golf club bartender makes a drink that he calls the old man sour. Its a mixture of an old fashioned and a whiskey sour and it is absolutely delicious.
ohhh! Wisconsin is responsible for that. i had a bartender serve me that exact drink. i thought she was crazy. nope i’m just not well traveled 😂
That explains why this guy seems so obnoxious yet nice at the same time.. he's from Wisconsin.
Damn. As a Minnesotan bar tender I’m so offended. But also not surprised as Wisconsin has the highest rates of DUIs every year. These are prob so easy to get down. Top the night off with a couple of spotted cows too? It’s GG!
Like how you put on the accent at the end 😂
There’s was none
Wisconsin consumes half of Korbel's brandy production. I love a whiskey old fashioned, but when in Wisconsin, it makes for a nice change.
I'd believe it. Don't know if it still holds true, but read once that Wisconsin drinks more brandy than the rest of the US together
My favorite
Fuck that I’m from Tennessee we drink whiskey straight.
Prefer with Graf’s 50/50 soda which makes it sour. My grandpa made them all the time growing up. Moved out of state and when ordered an old fashion I got a “proper” one. By my reaction the bartender snickered and said I must be from Wisconsin.
Grew up with these type of drinks around my fam
Had to remind me about Aaron Rodgers’s leaving huh🥺I’m definitely need one or 3 of those
this dude looks like some weed youtuber i use to watch a while ago lol
I bet your comment means a lot to him
Ah yes, a fellow Wisconsinite. Cheers man!
I will never, ever, EVER get behind soda water in an old fashioned. Love Spotted Cow though 😄🐄
I prefer an old fashioned Old Fashioned.

Wisconsin!!!!! I’m from Kenosha
You can also order it "press" which gets you half 7-up and half bar sour.
I always thought press meant half 7-up half club soda.
Explains Sweet and Sour and proceeds to make it pressed
True Wisconsin fashion, always brandy sour!
I get the sense he practiced on a couple of these before recording this……possibly 😂
I just assumed it'd be a regular old fashioned with ranch dressing
Me living in WI born and raised. How the hell have I never heard of this😂
Angostura bitters are form Trinidad

This both excites and disgusts me lol
So I'm a bit confused.
If I ordered an Old Fashioned in WI, would I get what you just made, or would i get a tall glass of Brandy and Sprite?
Hmm always used Whiskey in PA but already thinking spiced brandy for christmas.
Go jets, love an old fashioned. And Aaron Rodgers
Remember to Drink Wisconsinbly.
Pop over the border to the Twin Cities and we'll go grab a whiskey sometime.
Always BRANDY my boy!!! Korbel 100% you got it! ON WISCONSIN!! 🧀
Nice!
Tell me you don't drink without telling me you don't drink
Squirt is technically what goes in a sour.
I don't mind this drink, but I sure do mind it being called an old fashioned
One shot everclear, one shot Henny, a little lawn mower gas and OJ. You got yourself a summertime bad day.
MAKE a Connecticut Bullfrog 🍹🐸🍁

I knew I liked you for a reason 414 Milwaukee Wisconsin
Does the brandy make it a "Wisconsin Old Fashioned"?
Always thought you had to put ice in the glass first and then pour the alcohol over it. Otherwise you would bruise the alcohol.
Ok. For all I know, that's a good drink. What I do know, however, is that it is not an Old Fashioned.
Alright, guy. Ima need you to look at the camera when you take a drink. This 'lookin out into space' looks funny.
It's supposed to have wild turkey in it
Thats how I know it aswell
Correction bourbon and normally rye
@@KanyeWest2024Wild Turkey is a brand of bourbon, cheaper but really good.
get him and charlie berens in a vid together
