As if whiskey and taters weren't enough, the guys bring back some old segments to spice things up. Wings? BMX bikes and lube? Oh great... here we go again...

Watch the full video trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_PO7QFnmJc&ab_channel=TheHardProof We’re tired of it. Tired of the cryptic tasting notes. Tired of the elaborate marketing schemes. Tired of the pretentious plague that has sickened the whiskey industry for far too long now. We’ve had enough of the mind-boggling allocated bottle events where liquor store owners force grown men to act like 5th graders in exchange for a chance to buy a bottle of Weller at retail. The Hard Proof is on a mission to revitalize the whiskey industry and take it back to a time when whiskey was purchased, enjoyed and shared as it should be. No more buying bottles 200% over MSRP just to have a backup bottle for the one you haven’t even opened yet. We’re not afraid to point fingers, shake up the establishment, and have a good laugh while doing it. Join us as we call out the culprits contributing to the pretentious disease destroying the spirits industry and provide a no-nonsense guide through the whiskey landscape. Pour yourself a glass, settle in, and let’s cut through the bullshit - one pour at a time.

So nice we had to have it twice! Our friends at Old Line Spirits sent us their Single Malt Whiskey for us to try, and even though we fluffed with it a few weeks back, we enjoyed it so much we had to record a bonus about it. It's also JP's first time tasting it, so will it join the list of single malts he hates, or break through to be a buy?

In true D-Rock fashion, nothing can ever be simple. Whether it's introducing a try-scale, or flipping the fluffer on it's head, no part of the Blue Collar Bourbon Show is safe from his shenanigans!
