With the shadow of the baby looming, I held onto this episode for a diapered day, and here we are. We wax poetic about our Bourbon County day experiences (or lack thereof), I admit to (briefly) committing a crime, we talk about the two bottles of Rare we got from what was an illegal, incentivized raffle, and we (well me) reflect on the hypocrisy of looking at the BCBS release as a side show of super-hyped bullshit while fervently participating in it.
We finish by discussing the current state of Bourbon County in the hands of the InBev Empire (or is that the First Order now) and bond over Capone’s and the Black Friday event that keeps families together. It’s a magical, bourbon soaked, baby-banked episode of the DBRcast.

All You Need to Know
If it seems like I’ve been slacking in my blogging duties as of late, it’s because as of Feb 1st I became a dad the second time over with this 7 pound 9 ounce bundle of distraction. I’ll be resuming beer duties shortly, but my focus is on this tiny handful for now (as it should be!) I will probably bust out a few goodies from the cellar in a small, public bottle share celebration to honor baby Lily, so stay tuned.
As I can’t let this this perfect opportunity for synergy pass by, I’ve paired the birth of my daughter with a can of Other Half’s Baby Diamonds session IPA. Great, near Vermont beer flavors with a decent body for under 5%. Think Lawson’s Sip or Sunshine with less apricot/mandarin and a lighter finish. Perfect for a summer day with an ABV made for child-rearing (but for reals, don’t drink and parent you guys). Cheers!
