Have A Drink

Okay, I know we are redoing episodes, but can we do without the typos. It’s even in the title. Oh, it’s actually Shochu, not Shoju. So we are going to Japan for our spirits instead of Korea this time. We’ll figure out the difference between those, and whatever else we can find about this. Kampai again, and join us as we Have a Drink.

Eins, Zwei, Weisen. Well maybe that isn’t how Germans count, but maybe it should be. We are talking about German Wheat Beers today. You shouldn’t be shocked that there is a long history of brewing this type of beer, but maybe we’ll find something that will surprise you. So get a nice refreshing hefeweizen, or maybe a good dark Dunklewizen, either way you’ll have something while we Have a Drink.

Blind tasting of top shelf vs. bottom shelf alcohol of various types. Please excuse some of the audio issues.

It’s our favorite time of the year, no not summer (God No!), it’s time for a bourbon episode. We will look at a distillery that we, somehow, never have before and talk about Woodford Reserve. This distillery has been working for over 2 centuries to make the water of life and holds a special place for some of our hosts. Why is that, well you’ll just have to listen to find out. We won’t be offended if you also decide to Have a Drink.

Are we trying to get day-drunk today? But we record these at night, can you even have a sangria when it’s not brunch? Well, today we look into that and see what this mixture has for us. So get some fruit and get ready to have some wine-mouth, as we Have a Drink.

It’s time we return to Sake for one last go. At least until we find more things to talk about or decide to make a special edition episode where Brittany drinks first. We are going to try and make up for the fact our “Year of Sake” took a little more than a year to finish and give you a lot of info. So buckle up and shout Kampai as we Have a Drink (oh god, the words in this one).

I think this episode is out of season, it’s not the Fall, it’s not even Spring yet, why are we drinking Cider? Maybe we are just in the mood for something crisp today, or maybe we just want to rediscover this old style that has been around for centuries. Join us and we’ll see if a cider a day keeps the doctor away, as we Have a Drink.

Alsace is a region in France, or is it Germany? It’s on the border of the two so I assume there has never been any dispute about that. Is this a French wine with German influences, or a German wine disguised as French? I doubt we’ll answer that, but I’m sure we’ll learn something along the way, and I’m also sure we’ll Have a Drink.
