Jack Daniels Single Barrel Select Review

ByLuke Mayock February 16, 2023May 18, 2023

Here at Barrel & Brew, we drink Jack Daniels quite frequently, but it’s almost always the Old No. 7 and in the form of a Jack and Coke. When it comes to drinking whiskey on the rocks or neat, we tend to reach for smaller, craft options – or just whiskey we don’t relate with…

Casamigos Reposado vs Blanco

ByLuke Mayock February 9, 2023February 9, 2023

A lot of people have distrust in colored, or brown, tequila. I know I did for awhile. That’s because my first experience was with Jose Cuervo Gold, a very cheap tequila that uses coloring to achieve the goldish brown hue. However, real brown tequila can be quite the treat as it gets its color from…

Chattanooga Whiskey 111

ByLuke Mayock February 7, 2023June 26, 2023

Here at Barrel and Brew, we love trying whiskey and bourbon from all over the world and the US. Now, Tennessee isn’t exactly new to the whiskey making process, nor to having distilleries; however, I don’t think we’ve touched upon a whiskey out of Chattanooga, TN yet, so here we are reviewing none other than…

Glen Fohdry 12 Year Review

ByLuke Mayock February 7, 2023May 18, 2023

Glen, a popular term in the world of scotch. Glenfiddich and Glenlivet, Glen Ness, Glen Grant, Glenmorangie, Glen Moray, Glen Fohdry, and countless others are names of various scotch whiskies. Glen is a Gaelic word for ‘valley’, and since there are many hills in Scotland, there are many valleys, too. So, Glen Fohdry comes to…

Shieldaig 12 Yr Scotch Whisky Review

ByLuke Mayock January 31, 2023May 18, 2023

Recently, I’ve been trying new scotch whisky to expand my palate and knowledge. Mostly, I was trying Islay scotch, like Laphroaig and Ardbeg, and some blended options, too. However, I’m back to do a review on a whisky from my favorite region of Scotland, Speyside. Today, we’re discussing Shieldaig 12 Year Single Malt. In this…

Apothic Inferno 2019 Red Blend Review

ByLuke Mayock January 30, 2023January 30, 2023

We’re back with some more wine reviews, and this time we’re talking about the 2019 vintage of Apothic Inferno. Apothic is a fairly popular wine, but Inferno caught our eye for a specific reason – it is aged in whiskey barrels for 60 days before bottling. And well, we love our whiskey so we had…

How Many ml in a Shot? How Many Shots in Fifth?

ByLuke Mayock January 23, 2023January 23, 2023

Look. Things can get confusing. Especially when you, as a country (USA), choose to use a different measuring system than nearly the rest of the world. We measure liquid in fluid ounces, most others use milliliters and liters, and the British use the imperial ounce which is different than our ounce. Liquor was around long…

Wild Turkey 101 Rye Review

ByLuke Mayock January 22, 2023May 18, 2023

I’ve never been the biggest fan of Wild Turkey 101 Bourbon. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not bad, but it’s never been my go to mass-produced bourbon choice. However, being a big fan of rye whiskey, I figured I’d give Wild Turkey 101 Rye a fair chance. In this Wild Turkey 101 Rye Review, we’ll…

If you follow us along at all, you’ll know we like our rye whiskey, and we like really like MGP rye whiskey as well. However, drinking whiskey that’s been distilled at the same place over and over again can get monotonous, so we always like to try different rye whiskey that’s distilled elsewhere. Laws Rye…

Rabbit Hole Bourbon: Heigold

ByLuke Mayock January 13, 2023May 18, 2023

A lot of the whiskey we drink and review simply comes from walking down the aisle at our local liquor store and picking something that looks good or sounds good. Sometimes it ends up costing us, but most of the time it doesn’t. This time around, Rabbit Hole Bourbon Heigold caught our eye. It was…
