yes, he is like a prickly hedgehog but fun to watch. he is healthy like a mountain bear even with so much consumption 😂
My old boss moved from roasting coffee to opening a distillery in that area, bardstown is insane for bourbon. His stuff is pretty good, Rabbit Hole Distillery is his, great guy!
that 11k bottle if i was rich id buy it crack it open and give everyone in the store a shot it would be an amazing memory and experience
Great video. My first visit to this festival and thanks for taking me along. Cheers to the Brewzle family.
I used to be obsessed with youtube and kinda lost my way. Brewzle is by far one of the channels that brought back my youtube VIDEO love and not just keeping me scrolling reels
This looks like the best day out ever. TJ man, you can handle your whiskey. I would have needed to be scraped off the floor after that many pours in one day. Love the video as always.
Straight up told the RD1 guy to not screw up the single barrel with that Amburana Finish. Savage! 😂 Love your content! Cheers!

Nobody gives their opinion without sounding offensive like Brewzle. So good on camera and a killer personality to boot!
Don’t know the first thing about whiskey but I love watching people talk about what they are passionate about.
That Hartfield rep is dedicated to her craft. You said sell me a bottle, but she could have sold me on the whole damn tent 😂
Looks like a great time! Thanks for letting us tag along
I don't even drink bourbon, but I love your vids, keep it up!
Hey Brewzle/TJ, you should come to the whiskey bar called The Bees Knees in Hayden, Idaho! We have the largest selection of whiskeys in the entire state! It's operated by a couple and I happen to be the "whiskey nerd" of the bar! We have the Michter's 20 yr, Heaven Hill 17 and 20 yr, the newest Parker's Heritage bottle and many MANY rare bottles at the bar! We're also an award winning bar! Hope you can come down to Idaho sometime! Big Fan!
I don’t even drink whiskey but these videos are super nice to watch
Thank you for the shoutout. It was a pleasure talking to you at the festival. Glad you liked the PD challenge coin.
Really fun video, lots of cool stuff and it got a little wild at that bar.
I went to the Kentucky Bourbon Festival the first 4 years in a row. It's been like 4-5 years since ive been back. 2024 has to be it. Every bourbon enthusiast needs to experience it at least once. It's a phenomenal time.
Brewzle gets funnier as he keeps drinking 🤣
You guys are living the dream. Love the videos.
Love your content. We need an full scoreboard of your rankings 😊😊
Best event video you guys have done so far.

You have the influence. Don't doubt your prowess. I'm new to your channel, but I love the videos. I'm planning to do some local bourbon hunting in Louisiana and Mississippi with my buddy soon, and it all started with your videos. 👍🏻👍🏻Keep up the good work.
I wasn't aware of this festival. Definitely going next year. Time to start saving for all the bottles though.

Hartfield is good stuff! That’s the master distiller you were talkin to 😉😉
For those of us in the icey snowy climates, I can't recommend snow tires enough; the money saved on 'stuck in an obvious normally avoidable situations' could be put towards bottles of EC23 and a warm weather vacation.
Awesome vid, love these videos so much!! Thanks
Wonderful video as always Brewzle! My wife and I are not far away living in Ohio but we have yet to make it to this festival. Time to plan for next year because this looked fun!

I am a scotch man. The only bourbon I've ever tried and kind a liked was your run of the mill Bulleit. But this guy... The way he is relaxed and free all the time. The amount of content and happiness he has in his voice. It's so relaxing. I guess bourbon has got something to do with it? I need me some bourbon after watching these videos. What would you recommend that is globally available? Apart from JD's and Bulleit?

Most of us Yanks won't be much help, because we don't know what bourbon you can get oversees. Though I always hear that Blantons and I think Eagle Rare are more common across the pond. I personally started out with Scotch, and then my tastes grew to include bourbon thanks to bottles like WFDO and JD SBBP. I never cared much for any of the "entry level" bourbons - JD Old No 7 and Bulleit are fine for mixing, but they don't do anything for me neat. Maybe try asking on r/liquor or somewhere like that? I'd try to find some fellow countrymen who like bourbon, their recommendations will be more useful. Cheers!
I've got a new drink for you guys to try. I don't have a name for it, but it's a can of Sprite, about an ounce of rum (preferably spiced), and fresh grapefruit juice. You can garnish with a wedge of grapefruit, too.
Great video Brewzle! Please do more Kentucky Bouron Festival videos! Weekly if possible! But seriously, your content is great, your editing is phenomenal! The bar scene was great, trying multiple rare bourbons. Whiskey bar flights episodes? Just an idea. You do you! And thanks for the great content!

Whiskey bar flights and whiskey bar fights. Perfect combo
Awesome video thank you!!
Way to go Jill with the honest review, don't be swayed by the age statement on the Michter's. Dying to find a Cellar Aged myself.
Short Video Idea: You can try what we used to call a southern sour. You make it with equal parts Sprite, Sweet and sour mix, and southern comfort. I would love to get your take on it. Plus I see you reviewing drinks that include fireball so I am sure you can include a little southern comfort ;). Much love for my favorite whiskey-tuber.
Great video looks like a fun time!
Wish we had things like this in the UK!

Snap I would love that
Bold statement.....C & K batch 1 & 2 were 2 of 3 bottles I ever considered to be drain pours. (I would never drain some whiskey, just leave it for party mixers)
Great video thanks!
I’m a chronic marijuana smoker and wine drinker but for some reason I love this channel
Thank you for introducing me to this, I’ll be there next year for sure
Looks like a good time.
10:07 and at that moment we all held a moment of silence XD
You should go get an Irish coffee from the Buena Vista Cafe! Too good 👍
So moral of the story is... Have a media pass or forget getting any good bottles 😅
Awesome video, definitely would love to visit that festival in the future 😬

I'm a huge fan of the Michter's Toasted Finished Barrel Rye 2023, but I agree you need to be alright with a toasted finish. In this case it tastes like a honey barrel finish. But at 108ish (varies by the batch), it's a nicely balanced sweet as heck banger! Edit: further into the video, I'd agree that other stuff trumps the M20. I have an empty M20b and even i'd say that for the price to quality ratio, lots of stuff beats the M20. The Toasted Rye, Maker's Cellar Aged, and many others are a much better value for the price. And really, M20 isn't 2k good. It's not WLW, Pappy 20, or Mister Sam.
I was at Evergreen Liquors later that night. That Double Eagle Very Rare was sold!

wow! Lots of folks with lots of money.
another great video, also digging those Dillon optics shades…can’t beat those unique opaque lenses.
21:45 Bluegrass Distillers are my boys. Best toasted barrel I have had yet.
Bardstown and Louisville is a lot of fun.
Makes me feel like my bourbon shelf needs an upgrade… in my opinion the rarest bourbon I have atm is a maker DNA 115 proof un-opened.
My kids are 2 and 4. When they are 18 and 20 my wife and I are going to this festival.
If you haven't already, you should try Bear Wallow Distillery in Nashville, Indiana. It's not MGP. There are 2 barrel picks at ABV barrel shops in St. Louis currently. Doesn't make it out of our state typically. Also do tours of the distllery. My favorite local whiskey.
Definitely a blast being at the KYBF. Nice bumping into you. I still get credit for telling you guys to go a few months back in a live stream 😆. So you can blame me for spending all that money on all those bottles!

Find Southern Grace Distillery! Their Conviction bourbon is delicious!
I want to go to this festival. I am still amazed you can buy bottles at the festival, in my area they just give you a list of nearby stores that will be open the next day.

bro you are tanked 3/4 of the time. I'm surprised you even try driving to these things.
Yet to find a Whiskey that can beat what Lagavulin 16 offers for 150 a bottle. The Bakers conversation made me realize that no Bourbon has ever really come close.
Loved this video
Great video.

You need to go to Bourbon and Beyond. More about the music than the Bourbon but it’s a good time.

Another great video. If I bought you a Michter's 20, would you come hang out at my home bar and talk to people?
What kind of bourbon event doesn't also have many types of BBQ available?
Divorce attorney? You married a keeper if she doesn't prefer the obscenely expensive 20. 😂
If you need a German Shepard in Oklahoma this guy bought me michters
I am digging the sunglasses...where did you get those?
Really enjoyed this one, CJ! I can’t believe I haven’t done that festival yet. Next year for sure! Question- do you know about High Bank Distillery in Columbus, Ohio. If not, I’ll send you samples.
Fun!
Opened my Baker's 13 last night. Very good, but I think I'm with Jill. Get me a Cellar Aged, please, Jill. I'll drink it with you. I even went to MM distillery and got shut out.
12:35 John Candy's twin!
Wow!! I wish I was there. Looks like a great time. Does this event happen only in the fall?

Yes, I believe so. Every September
Were you able to get a bottle of woodford reserves limited release of toasted oak four grain?
What days did you go? And did they have bottles released every day?
How did you like the Texas whiskey?
Just curious, around 9:55 when you're in that shop you're drinking from a pretty elegant whisky glass. It does not seem to be a glencairn. Any clue ast to what glass that is?
Did you get to try anything from Neeley Distillery? They’re out of Sparta Kentucky and won quite a few awards already. Very very good in my opinion!
