Looks like they had a great tour guide, very beginner friendly and informative
It sure is...we actually just picked one of the first Still Austin Rye whiskey barrels 3 weeks ago for our Patreons. We did head out to the Rickhouse and grabbed a hitter of Rye whiskey!!! And Christian at Still Austin is the man!

And I find it hard to believe any barrel from Still Austin was awful! 😂
We were so excited to see Still Austin finally available in Indiana! It's just GREAT!
As a Texan and former Austin resident, I’m glad they are doing well.
“This is not therapy, this is picking whiskey”, I love your content, Brewzle!
I enjoyed the tour and the testing and barrel selection process! Thank you for sharing all of that!
Bought my first bottle of Still Austin just yesterday. Single barrel cask strength store pick from Specs here in central Texas. now I really want to go take the tour. Just about 30 minutes from my house.
Now this would have been a really good time to me, even as someone who is not huge into any kind of drinking. Christian did an excellent job explaining the process and showing y'all around. And you know enough about Whiskey to explain it to those who aren't as familiar with it, in a way that doesn't scare people off or sound too know it all. Thanks for bringing us along.
I live in Austin and have been many times, and have bought many bottles. Great whiskey!
Another great video. I wish my corporate events were like this.
I’ve seen most of your videos. This one definitely ranks in the top 10 for me!
I love this video, thank you.... I have yet to add a still Austin bottle to my collection (had two in my hands last night and chose something else I’m kicking my own ass about), one thing I have to say that I absolutely love about them is the label artwork. It is unique, and with everything visual in this video, is spot on with their style and branding perfection. Love love. Thank you TJ
Great video TJ. Thanks for letting patreons see it early. I’m kind of sad that Still Austin is mainly in Total Wine where a lot of Total Wine products are. Best of luck with your barrel pick.
Great video. I've driven past Still Austin quite a few times but have yet to stop in. Looks like a great distillery.
Perfect timing, I picked up my first bottle of Still Austin BP Bourbon last night! I'm pleasantly surprised.
Tj thanks! I had to come back to my home State and will be taking a Bottle of Still Austin back to Wyoming.
John and Christian are great people! Got a chance to hang out with them in Illinois for a store pick/class. Glad you guys enjoyed the experience!
I live here in Austin and was excited to see what you guys thought of my home town Bourbon. The walk through was great but when the tasting started you seemed a little irritated and felt like you wanted it to be over because of the lack of experience with the people that you took there. Not one of my favorites videos from you but still thank you for coming to Austin and still love your work!
I’m from Texas but moved away. Wish my husband and I could’ve visited this distillery! Thanks for the video! Really well done. Can’t wait to watch more

Cool video. Thanks for sharing your tour.
That is an incredible still!! Wow 😮
Still Austin is great in every way! Great whiskey! Great people! Still Great!!
Farm to glass. Lovin it!
I know this isn’t about this video, but I was in Broken Bow, OK this past weekend and we tasted the bourbon at Hochatown Distillery and they do a fantastic job. Can’t recommend their single barrel bourbon enough. It’s so freaking good
There is place in Clarksville Tennessee called old glory. They make a small batch,bottle n bond, and a single barrel. If you ever go through I would love to see what you think. They are small distillery that do everything themselves. Love the videos!!
Loving the content!!! 👍🏼
Dude, you are killing it with the content! I just drove across the US South for the first time (13 states) and returned home with 30 bottles of bourbon. Best road trip ever! ***Wife was not happy!*** $$$$
I LOVE Still Austin!!!!!
The things I would do to get a bottle of Still Austin up in Canada! I got a bottle once a few years ago in the USA and loved it!

Definitely give them a visit.
Just bought my first Still Austin last week. It was the cask strength bourbon. Very good! And you have immense patience.
Texas and Austin are unique but Still Austin is above and beyond unique on how they make their stuff.
I’m a big Still Austin fan. My wife took me to the distillery in February for my birthday and it was a great experience. The blue and red corn bottle in bond is awesome! I don’t care for rye but I real like their BNB rye. They have a new release coming out later this year I’m excited for. They are only releasing 800 cases.
It is genuinely a dream of mine to do a barrel pick somewhere. I don’t even know what for but I would love the opportunity to taste and compare barrels and get into the unique nuances that each has.
Still Austin is the gateway Texas bourbon. Next thing you know you will be buying Garrison Cowboy Bourbon and drinking on Ironroot Distillery Harbringer. Delicious and so unique.
Avid viewer of your content. Austin Native. Still Austin lover...sooooooo wish I could have been here for this pick...Watching the amateur pool in this made me hurt a little...😭

I mixed still austin cask strength and dr pepper for a surprisingly good pair. I enjoy both separately and they flavors mix perfectly
Looks like sooo much fun! Hope to one day afford my own barrel pick haha
super fun video. loved your face and reaction to picking with corporate. kee it up. cheers
I really enjoy these type of videos. I know these are not the most popular overall . most people are not gonna get to go tour a lot of these places a lot so it’s nice to be able to watch the video I was wondering why they stand the barrels up and not lay them down.

We are working on taking these up a few notches to see if we can make them more popular. Some interesting ones coming and we'll continue to build and improve the format.
Why taste with people who aren't into Bourbon, what experience do they have to share?😂

Need to check out Southern Distilling Company out of Statesville, NC. Distill, age, and bottle their own bourbons and rye whiskeys and they are GOOD. Southern Star - Paragon Single Barrel Wheated Cask Strength is my favorite. Awesome facility and they do tours daily. Can buy bottles on site.
My favorite Texas bottles are Still Austin Barrel proof and Balcones Texas Single Malt. Yeah it’s not a bourbon, but it’s amazing.
Hope you get to come check out the TX distillery in Fort Worth some day
Great video! Is this the “Bourbon Cowboy” pick just released yesterday on Patreon?
Great video
Been seeing these in Chicago area for a long time. Need to pick some up
Man I wish I could get Still Austin in my area. Guess I gotta take a road trip
That tasting was painful and educational to watch 😂

Enjoyed the video, the variety of this channel is what brings me back daily. TJ, the channel would get stale if we watched the same bourbon hunting video every day!
Some of the best whiskey on the market right now
Did you win a spot in the Alabama Quarterly drop for March? My son won a spot in Auburn. First time ever. So excited!!
TJ: You visit a lot of distilleries, thank you for sharing these videos. Please ask your tour guides about their yeast. It is the one ingredient we never hear about. Where is a new distillery getting their proprietary yeast? The older time tested distilleries depend on their yeasts staying the same because a slight difference could change the flavor of the bourbon. I want more info about the yeasts and their histories. Thanks again.
Do a blind of smoke wagon straight bourbon, 1792 single barrel, eagle rare and Blantons.
I need to go to one of this barrel pick, I think I can do good. 😅
Don’t believe I have ever seen brewzle so frustrated and holding it together. lol
❤ Homelander edit 😂😂😂
It’s cool they use non gmo corn. That’s a big plus
Thank you for all you do for the bourbon community. Keep up the solid work brother!!

Not a Whiskey drinker, but watching your videos makes me wish I was
Christian knows how to pick em! And of course we know how to make em 😏
I just learned that Willie Nelson had a bourbon "Old Whiskey River Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey." Have you reviewed that one before? I'm interested to hear what it'd be like
I found old forester store pick for $80 and actually got to taste it. 130 proof but very good. Should I buy a bottle.???

OF SB BS are almost always very good bottles. And $80 is the going rate for them. Probably too late now, but hopefully you grabbed it.

Tried the Still Austin Cask Strength last week, not my thing. I’m a Garrison Brothers loyalist.
2:59 he means developmental flavor is quicker in Texas not age big difference, but the flavor is definitely more bombastic and exciting in Texas
You taste so many whiskeys, I want to know whats your go to on a nice winter night in front of a fire.
Still Austin Cask Strength is one of my favorites at the moment. I have not had a single barrel yet, but the blended is very good. I'm not sure why the single barrels cost more in general. I would think the blended would take more effort. I'm not saying the blended should cost more, I'm saying the single barrels should cost less. Marketing has fooled the consumers with the single barrel. Tell me why I'm wrong.
@scottbartlett2087

Single Barrel is one and done, you get a honey barrel and that's it, there is no more of it. You get into blended bottles, it is easier to pick and choose numerous barrels and blend them to a certain flavor profile that is repeatable, thus more bottles and a process that can be duplicated easier. It's not Marketing ploy, just simply a supply and demand process. That's why folks like to get store picks, as they can taste wildly different then the commercial blended offering.
Enjoy your content

I find it crazy that he’s sampling whiskey that’s over 80 degrees in temperature and dealing with the Texas heat. That’s a pretty tough job. How do you do that?
😶 You might as well took a bunch of Austin vegans to Franklin's BBQ.. I was only 150 miles away! 😭
I enjoyed everything about that video with the exception of the guy on your right as you were doing the pick. Still Austin looks like an awesome job. Hopefully we see them in PA sometime in the near term.
Here in Austin it was a high of 48 degrees yesterday, today is 73 tomorrow is 81. That's rapid age.

The flavor intensifies at a faster rate, but I wouldn't call it the same flavor. It's different and unique in its own way.
How is it cask strength if it’s undergone slow proofing during maturation and proofed down further to 116 proof?
God bless Texas!
