Episode 41 – Kentucky Belgian
This is a show about brews, and the topic of whether or not whiskeys are brewed has come up before. But we needed someone passionate about this to help us understand this complex topic. Vic Hudson is passionate about whiskey, and he educates Scott on the whiskey creation process from start to finish, as well as the incredibly complex rules around categorizing whiskeys. It's enough to make your head spin, and that's before taking a single sip!
