[Whiskey Tribe] It's thick, spiteful, and melted into my shoes...

Things have reached a boiling point you Magnificent Bastard.

Spankin’ new distillery equipment via ABE. Daniel swears the new boiler shed isn’t held together with shoelaces and duct tape.
The upcoming Bastard’s Ball. Yup, it’s happening. And we expect nothing less than a glorious outdoor celebration of free whiskey samples and Magnificence.
A hush-hush whiskey project for the Holidays. (The secret number is “12”... sshh.)

It’s all coming to a head, wrapped in a thick and spiteful Texas heat. The summer should settle down soon enough - hopefully before my tender bits melt into my shoes.

One of the less glamorous jobs around here is landscaping. But we gotta keep things tight for the MB’s, right?

Is your inner bastard Magnificent enough to salute?
