Most years around this time, the annual BASTARD’S BALL would propel a horde of Magnificent Bastards upon our little whiskey hamlet in south Austin, Texas. The Tribe’s whiskey festival has always been a smoldering mountain of Magnificence, but parking limitations have capped the yearly event at 500 pWeeBle.

Until now.

Apparently, most live events are being done a little differently this year. (Not exactly sure why, maybe you’ve heard something about it.)

This year, the Bastard’s Ball is happening as a YouTube live stream on Saturday, September 12th - and you’re invited. As we near the big day, I’ll give you a link so you can set an automatic reminder for the Bastard’s Ball livestream.

There will be an epic lineup of Master Distillers, YouTubers, and shenanigans throughout the day. We’re also putting together our official Drink-Along-Whisk(e)y-List if you want to join the livestream pour-for-pour.

Speaking of livestreams, all the MB’s in Patreon are invited to a Quarterly
DrinkStream with Rex and Daniel - TODAY (Friday Aug, 14th). Better hurry though, it’s happening at noon (12:00pm central) The link is in a Patreon post!

That DrinkStream will officially wrap up the latest Quarterly Challenge (dry week) in the Whiskey Tribe. If you succeeded in an intentional dry week this quarter, you’re invited to add your name to the hallowed list of Whiskey Challengers here:

DOWN THE REDDIT HOLE...
MERCHY MERCH MERCH
Crowded Barrel Rocks Glass


Through the power of frickin’ lasers, a Crowded Barrel rune has imbued the bottom of this rocks glass with whisk(e)y spirit powers. Upon finishing your ice-cold drink, you’ll find the bear and eagle spirits raging in maelstrom of fangs and feathers. Grip it tight, MB. Only 1 thing that can soothe the ferocious beasts.

[+] This Is the Year For Blended Scotch Whisky

July 27 was National Scotch Day in the United States, but you can be forgiven for not feeling particularly festive. Many of the things we’d ordinarily do to celebrate a manufactured holiday like this one—order a drink at a bar, invite some friends over for cocktails, or take a leisurely shopping trip to an upscale liquor store—currently exist somewhere on the spectrum from fraught to totally impossible…
