If you’re in Austin this Wednesday evening and you’re thirsty, please join me at Ten Oak at 409 Colorado from 6:30 to 8:30. We’ll be talking bourbon…as if there’s really anything else to talk about.

I’ll discuss how Garrison Brothers came to be; how we make our bourbon in Hye; nosing and tasting; and we’ll conclude with a tasting, discussion and Q&A.
