Opened Bottles + Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel Sep 12, 2016

Show notes

Will and the Greeze tackle the age old question of what happens to your whiskey once the bottle is opened. Does it go bad? They try to figure it out. Then, after the 15, they discuss Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel with Dillon "Spillin' Beers" Spears.

Check out our new friend @therobcompany on instagram and see the really cool lamps he makes. He is currently making an awesome custom lamp out of a vintage decanter bottle for our studio. You're going to love his work.

Cocktail Time with Tim Sep 04, 2016

Show notes

Wil and the Greeze have been asked many times to have some cocktails on the show. The only problem is the best cocktails they can make involve Evan Williams and a cola. Fortunately, their instagram friend Tim (@timmergund) actually knows what he is talking about. He walks the guys through two amazing whiskey cocktails: one classic and one a modern variation on that classic. Also, make sure that you check out the Greeze's new instagram (@therealgreeze) and our spin off show (@gamedaymix).

BONUS: Made South Round 2 Sep 01, 2016

Show notes

We know many of you may be traveling for the Labor Day holiday, so we thought you would enjoy a bonus show! Will and the Greeze went back out to the Made South barn to drink some more whiskey. Chris brought out his bourbon with the oldest age statements for this one. Another fun time in the barn.

Top 10 Bourbon Hunting List + Old Weller Antique Aug 29, 2016

Show notes

Will and the Greeze respond to a listener topic suggestion. Jeff on Facebook asked us to give our top ten bourbons we look for when we go hunting. They each give their top 5. They kept it to bourbons that may actually be possible to find (no Pappy on this list). After the 15, they give their thoughts on Old Weller Antique.

A Chat About Flasks + Sazerac Rye Aug 19, 2016

Show notes

Will and the Greeze have a heart to heart about flasks. They try to sort out the etiquette of when, where and why flasks are appropriate. After they feel they have sufficiently covered the topic (i.e. they get really thirsty), they move on to the 15. In this episode, they try Sazerac Rye, a.k.a. "Baby Saz." This rye is only the second to be tried on the show. Although it's a reasonably priced bottle, it is becoming increasingly hard to find.

Show notes

Wild Turkey announced a new marketing campaign last week featuring Matthew McConaughey as creative director... so, of course, Will and the Greeze are gonna talk about it.
