[Whiskey Tribe] I'm crying from laughter.

I spent the last few minutes crying from laughter. Let me set it up.

First, the MB’s just voted to start making IRISH WHISKEY in a new Whiskey Quest we just kicked off. Cool. Love it. Game on.

Kyle, the newest addition to our distillery team, ran across town to grab several grain options for the next votes. He uploaded a few images of the grains in our internal chat room. Nice. But he also added a bonus clip of a plastic baby hand slowly rising from the grain as it sifts through tiny fingers.

It’s weird, unexpected, and perfectly absurd in the best way.

I think the reason it hit so hard is 1) I’m a huge fan of Monty Python-esque humor, and 2) it reminded me of a top 10 all time favorite music video. https://youtu.be/D1NdGBldg3w

The plastic baby hands first show up at 15 seconds. You’re welcome.

Let's Face it - You're A Bastard.

I Know It, You Know It.

But are you a Magnificent Bastard?

In this video, Rex and Daniel talk about The Whiskey Tribe - a big, salty and ridiculous community of whisk(e)y loving MB's. They've raised a whiskey freak-flag...

Is your inner bastard Magnificent enough to salute?
