Give It A Shot – Lagunitas Hop Water and H2ops Water

There are times when as much as you may want to try something, the only thing you can do is wait. One can search the whole city over, call trusted contacts within the industry, and even hope and pray, all to no avail. That is probably a bit over-dramatic as we were only searching for…

Give It A Shot – Jefferson’s Pritchard Hill Cabernet Cask Finished Bourbon

Welcome to part two of this Cabernet theme week here at About Beverages.

Give It A Shot – Trader Joe’s Platinum Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley 2016

While they don’t happen every week, when we can do back-to-back podcasts that are connected by a particular theme it is something we enjoy.

Give It A Shot – Cooper & Thief Bourbon Barrel Aged Red Blend
