Two things. One big, the other small - but it feels big.

I’d have more for you, but I’m in the middle of a Christmas vacay, and there’s only so much you can ask a man to do whilst rocking pajamas. (Comfy, but I have no idea why they’re covered in little wiener dogs…

Last weekend's Whiskey Tribe episode ended with the announcement of a charitable donation, and the community will collectively decide where that money goes in January. That oddly short episode was supposed to be temporarily live as a special message for MB’s. But the comment section made a compelling case for keeping it up, so yah.

Allegedly, there will be a podcast episode near the first of the year to give context, details and gather your thoughts on where to aim the community’s donation.

The other thing? Earlier today, I got my hands on a new bottle design. The patreon voted on it a couple months ago. It’ll be used in some 2021 Crowded Barrel releases, and I gotta tell ya - I freaking love it. Everything about it. The weight, the shape, the feel of it in your hands, the usable space for labels. I usually don’t get chubbed up over stuff like this, but it’s one of the best bottles I’ve ever handled - and it’s ours.

That’s all. Go be merry and shit.
