EVERYBODY LOVES BBW!

This week, the fellas are stepping into barrel-strength territory as Q. Lewis, Bo, and the Angry Principal crack open a bottle that's bringing some serious heat—Hazelbaker High Proof Bourbon, clocking in at a mighty 130 proof!

Produced by the team behind NULU Whiskey, Hazelbaker is a limited Kentucky bourbon known for delivering bold flavor without sacrificing balance. Aged for seven years and bottled at barrel strength, this beast packs layers of caramel, vanilla, dark fruit, baking spices, toasted oak, and a finish that lets you know you're dealing with a heavyweight.

But the question is…

🔥 Does Hazelbaker live up to the hype?

🔥 Is 130 proof too much—or just enough?

🔥 And most importantly… how many Black Power Fists will it earn from the BBW crew?

As always, nothing is safe on Beards, Bourbon, Whiskey. The jokes fly, the opinions are strong, and somebody might just discover a new favorite pour. Whether you're a seasoned bourbon enthusiast or just beginning your whiskey journey, pull up a chair and pour yourself something nice—because everybody loves BBW!

• Hazelbaker High Proof Bourbon review
• Tasting notes and first impressions
• Is 130 proof a sipper or a flamethrower?

The Beard Gang is back in rare form for this one… and this ain’t your granddaddy’s rye. 🥃🌊 On this episode of the Beards, Bourbon, Whiskey Podcast, Q. Lewis, Bo, and Angry Principal crack open the wildly talked-about Barrell Seagrass Rye Whiskey — a monster rye clocking in around 120 proof and bringing enough tropical flavor to make your taste buds think they just booked a vacation with no PTO approved.

Crafted by Barrell Craft Spirits, Seagrass is a blend of American and Canadian rye whiskeys finished in Martinique rum, Madeira wine, and apricot brandy barrels — basically whiskey alchemy with beach energy and a knockout punch.

The Beard Gang dives deep into the madness: tropical fruit, honey, apricot, cinnamon spice, grapefruit, vanilla, grassy rye notes and enough heat to remind you this bottle came to fight. Some reviewers call it one of the most unique finished ryes on the market, while others say it drinks like a whiskey cocktail straight from the barrel.

Will Bo rock with the fruity rum-barrel vibes?

Will Angry Principal accuse this bottle of doing “too much”?

Will Q. Lewis start planning beachfront cigar nights after the first sip?

From Detroit barbershop humor to serious whiskey talk, the crew breaks down whether Barrell Seagrass deserves the hype or belongs stranded on a tropical island with no rescue boat coming.

🔥 120 proof.

🔥 Cask strength chaos.

🔥 One of the boldest rye whiskeys the Beard Gang has reviewed yet.

Tap in for another unapologetically real whiskey review from the culture’s favorite bourbon crew — where hip-hop, whiskey knowledge, and Detroit flavor always meet at the table.

The Beard Gang is back at it again and this time the fellas crack open one of the most talked-about new bottles in whiskey culture — Traveller Whiskey.

On this episode of Beards, Bourbon, Whiskey, Q. Lewis, Bo and Angry Principal take a deep dive into the smooth-drinking blend created through the collaboration between country music superstar Chris Stapleton and legendary master distiller Harlen Wheatley of Buffalo Trace Distillery fame.

Traveller Whiskey has been making noise across the bourbon and whiskey community for its approachable flavor profile, easy sip, and crossover appeal bringing together whiskey lovers, music fans and newcomers to the brown water world. But the real question is… does it live up to the hype once the Beard Gang gets ahold of it? 👀

Expect the usual BBW energy:

🥃 Real tasting notes with no sugarcoating

🥃 Detroit flavor and barbershop-style debate

🥃 Whiskey knowledge mixed with straight-up comedy

🥃 Honest opinions from three completely different palates

🥃 A conversation about celebrity-backed spirits and whether they really belong in serious whiskey culture.

From the nose to the finish, the crew breaks down the vanilla, oak, caramel sweetness and mellow spice that makes Traveller one of the easier pours on the market right now. But easy-drinking doesn’t always mean legendary… and you already know Bo and Angry Principal are NOT letting anything slide. 😅
