When I first tried EW BIB, I was taken back how that moment was a clear ah-ha moment. Just been drinking it for a couple of years. Love it.

Loved the military metaphors, actually got me to truly understand!

Fun and educational?! Man, we've got it all! ;)

I have a bottle of Evan Williams BIB right now. Sitting right between a bottle of Ironclad Straight and Buffalo Trace.

Recently bought this bourbon, can't go wrong at this price point!

Great to see his continued enthusiasm along with dropping some major knowledge. Fun episode guys!

BIB was enacted before Pure Food and Drug Act. It's kind of like hockey. Jock straps/protective cups were in use many years before helmets. Priorities!

Great episode. I love BnB products and Evan Williams is one of the best.

You can tell the Dude was excited to do this! Great episode! Cheers yall! 🥃

This is fantastic content. This video is so underrated. I love EW Bottle in Bond. Best value in bourbon.

He made some absolutely good points most men & women don’t know anything about whiskey.They buy cause how the bottle look or the name or the high price.That doesn’t mean it’s good quality whiskey.👌🏾

I keep a bottle of EW BIB at my parents house for making manhattans. I don't really do cocktails at home, but when I'm there and it hits happy hour time it's a round for all. Bernie must be an absolute blast to talk to. So much knowledge and charisma.

For sure, we had the best time hanging out!

I would say this is the most excellent whiskey that is always in stock at my local corner store. Affordable? Yes. Delectable? Yes. Historical? Well, I love American history, and bonded bourbon has more than carved out its place in U.S. history whether or not you're simply a student or a full afficionado of good whiskey. The simple truth is that the classic way of making a good bourbon is still just as relevant and drinkable as it was over a century ago

I think 100ish proof is the optimal flavor/ kick ratio. 👍🏼 Holy crap i just noticed your sub count! Blowin’ up. ✊🏼

Drank black label for years. Discovered bib and like it way better. Always drink it neat.

This is wonderful!! I would love to see more and more videos like this. Great job Chad & Sara!! Thanks to Bernie also, for sharing his wealth of knowledge!! Cheers

It’s actually $22 around me in nyc but still great value!!

I just had a 10yr Henry McKenna and Old Forrester Bottled-In-Bond.. Incredible is an understatement!!!

Fantastic commercial guys. Love the long form and natural dialogue

So...ummm...think the Professor can send you ..oh I dunno...what's a good number...738 MORE of those cards and...I mean...that's a lot of cards for you. Maybe he can just send one to each one of the Patreons and we will just hold onto them for you! 🤣🤣🤣 Great episode. I love learning this stuff and Evan Williams Bottled in Bond is a favorite summer time Bourbon for me here in AZ as it works really well with ice and great in an Old Fashioned!

Great episode! Evan Williams BiB is my favorite utility bourbon. It can be sipped neat, on the rocks, and is great in cocktails!

Evan Williams BIB was one of my first bottles and definitely a repeat purchase.

Great episode and great ambassador! We were at Heaven Hill about the same time this was posted and although the tasting was great, selections to buy were very disappointing. Fast forward to today, I finally found a Toasted Elijah Craig that we tasted and it's just as great as we tasted then. Today, local grocery was clearing out their EW BIB and got 3...couldn't resist. Thanks, y'all - great info and cheers!

Great video you guys! Always loving to learn about Bourbon!

I haven't had the opportunity to try a bottle and bonded yet. Definitely looking forward towards it now.

Love to spend a weekend at Bernies... awesome vlog..learned a lot and I have that bottle on my shelf yet unopened. But may POP it this weekend after this.

Outstanding! Thanks!

Cheers guys. Great video! 👍

I just found a Bottled-in-Bond brandy at the local liquor store: Christian Brothers Sacred Bond. It's pretty tasty, and not surprisingly it is a Heaven Hill product.

Insightful video. Evan Williams BIB is consistently solid juice, especially for the price.

Awesome episode. Those bonded rules can be hard to remember when you're 2 sheets to the wind but I took a screenshot of Bernie's card so that should help. Bernie may have the best job in the world. EW Bib is one of 2 bottles I buy in the 1.75, the other being WT 101 of course. Cheers Chad and Sara!

Great episode. EW BiB and Rittenhouse BiB are among my favorites for making cocktails. I agree 100% that 100 proof is ideal for mixing. I'll take EW BiB over their single barrel, they should raise the proof on the SiB. And if you want to PARTY just pick up a HANDLE of BiB at an unbelievable price.

I'm a shiner .. that last rule is 🤯🤯🤯

Bernie was really interesting. Great episode.

Yup.....browsing the burbon section of my local liquor store I stumbled into a bottled in bond Evan Williams so I thought eh........why not give it a try. I admit...... it's strong but tastes good and I like.

great show

Great video guys ... very informative and well produced. Also enjoy two other excellent BIB products from (I think) Heaven Hill .... JW Dant and JTS Brown. They are hard to find in NC, but grab them when I see them.

It's what I was already sipping, from a brandy snifter, when I started the video. The man supported what my own taste buds and nose have told me. Maybe that's confirmation bias, but it sure passes the sniff test.

Really enjoyed this, thanks, and greetings from England! Only Bottled in Bond I've had so far is Mellow Corn but it I want to try more. Believe it or not, in England Mellow Corn is an expensive speciality product.

Evan Williams BiB is the best value in Bourbon. It is really all I buy anymore and I an get a handle for $27. Mid shelf bourbon and a bottom shelf price.

Hey, our pleasure!

I want some of those cards. If you have not done it already... you need to do a blind of BIB bourbons/whiskies.

I should have bought some today! Dang, it was right there!

I do quite like this, I don't mind it as a sipper but generally don't, it is affordable here and I really like Ginger Ale mixed with a good bourbon, usually higher rye but this has been my go to since regular wild turkey is about $5-$10 more and WT 101 is $45 here (Canadian) If I can get WT 81 at the same price as EW BiB 100, I am going with EW. I should note I can't drink regular wild turkey straight as it is too weak but it does mix well in cocktails, but it is missing the proof to stand up to more than just soda. I think EW BiB 100 has that so might work in cocktails, although I generally prefer higher rye like WT101 or Bulleit for the Manhattans and such. But if I can get a higer proof Bourbon with a bit more complexity for less than $30 I am going back to it. In a perfect world though, Wild Turkey Rare Breed for less than $30 would make me a slobbering alcoholic... I love that stuff so much

Top shelf episode guys n gals . Thanks Bernie ,hopefully one day they will send EV BIB to Canada 🇨🇦 Lol . Right now all I have is the black label, 1783 and single barrel,love small . 👍🥃🇨🇦

There is one more restriction to Bottled in bond. It has to be by one distiller at one distillery. The Distiller wasn't on the card, did they change that requirement?

Heaven Hill is always a safe bet

The bizarre thing for me about this episode is the Sara is sitting on the left! Did you mirror the camera angle? It’s just too weird, I don’t think I can handle it. Chad on the left and Sara on the right! That’s just the way it is!!! Anyway, back to the actual program, thanks for recognizing the anniversary of BIB. These are some of my favorite bourbons.

My favourite cocktail is the Manhattan and my favourite Whiskeys to use for it are the Rittenhouse and the Evan Williams! You can certainly tell the difference between them, but they are both superb in each their own way in a Manhattan!

Is Laird's BiB Straight Apple Brandy the only non-whiskey BiB?

Happy BiB Day!

Very interesting show, but there was a little bit of misinformation in there. The biggest thing I see most people get wrong when talking about bottled in bond is they focus on the bottled in bond Act of 1897. That law does not exist anymore. It was done away with when the Volstead Act was put in place to enforce prohibition. Currently bottled in bond is defined in US title 27 under prohibited labeling practices. Specifically it is stating that you are prohibited from using that term unless you meet several criteria. Now most of that criteria is what was defined in the original Act. However there is one criteria that is not in there that was in the original Act, the requirement to be stored in federally bonded warehouses. That is no longer required in order to use the term bottled in bond. Because there are no more federally bonded warehouses as they existed before prohibition. Today most of the consumer protection aspects of the bottled in bond Act of 1897 are written into the standards of identity of the name bourbon itself. The other things said that was not correct under current law is that it had to be stored in an oak container. Under current law bottled and bond can be used for almost any class of spirit, so you do not have to store some of those classes of spirit such as vodka in an oak container in order to use the term bottled in bond. But it was a very well done and informative episode.

I put the white label in a decanter and tell my friends it's something expensive.

Hadn't Parker Beam passed away at this point or is there another Parker beam?

Love me some BIB Evan Williams and some BIB Rittenhouse Rye they are the best, enjoyed the video guys, Thanks!!!!
