Martelle, Mike, and Randy take on the Bourbon Hunters' private barrel pick of Jack Daniel’s Barrel Proof—a bold pour weighing in at 129.6 proof. The guys break down the flavor, heat, and whether it lives up to the hype. Then, it’s back to the legendary Sam Adams Utopias, coming in at 28%. Is it beer, a collector’s flex, or something in between?
With laughs, hot takes, and a few sips too many, this one’s for fans of the extremes.Recorded on 07/13/25.

Martelle, Mike, and Randy are joined by a packed house for Mike and ’s moving/going away party. It’s a full send-off with everyone getting a shot (literally) at the infamous Snake Bite—a beer clocking in at 67.5%—followed by the always regrettable yet iconic Malört, one of Chicago’s finest (or most feared) spirits.
With a room full of people, side conversations run wild and the chaos is real—try and keep up.
Recorded on 06/22/25. Good luck. Cheers!

Martelle, Mike, and Randy sit down to shoot the s**t with fan-favorite Oregon Derek after a massive blind whiskey tasting that, thanks to some brutal technical difficulties, never made it to air.
While the lost episode lives on in memory (and maybe liver damage), this one is all about catching up, laughing it off, and sipping something strong while doing it.

Martelle, Mike, and Randy crack open the show with a premixed Hercules Rum & Rye Old Fashioned. Martelle drops a surprise by playing the legendary Ballad of Leeroy Jenkins (watch here), setting the tone for another classic Buckhorn episode.
The crew revisits Quest's End Whiskey: Paladin and shares their thoughts now that the bottle's had some time to breathe. Mike recaps his chaotic journey to Philly, and—as always—there’s plenty of banter, booze, and BS.

Martelle, Mike, and Randy sit down to compare Mike’s bottle of Two Bitch Bourbon Pack Leader Reserve with Martelle’s and see just how different two bottles of the same release can be. The conversation drifts into boating adventures at Buckeye Lake, a little golf talk, and plenty of random tangents along the way.
Recorded on 04/25/25 – grab a pour and come hang out._______________________________________________________________________________________________________
