Last week, Rex was filling up at the gas station a mile down the road. After a couple minutes, a guy, probably early 30’s, leans out from the next pump and asks if he has a YouTube channel.

He’s a fan. Cool. Rex enjoys chance encounters with Magnificent Bastards in the wild. But here's the part of the story that’s equal parts tragic and hilarious.

Turns out, gas-station-guy has been watching our videos for at least 3 years. And he had NO IDEA that the entire operation was literally across the street from his neighborhood.

Yaahhhh… If a long-time MB can unknowingly drive past us for years, maybe it’s time to let the local community know we exist.

Frankly, a high proof whiskey nerd sanctuary will have limited pull in the local community. But Richard and the team have been creating a noteworthy lineup of craft cocktails for curious neighbors - and we're eager to pull back the curtain.

A lot of our local plans were shelved for a couple years. (can’t imagine why…) But the moment we picked a spot for tour buses to park and unload passengers - things got real again.

Game on.

Let's Face it - You're A Bastard.

I Know It, You Know It.

But are you a Magnificent Bastard?

In this video, Rex and Daniel talk about The Whiskey Tribe - a big, salty and ridiculous community of whisk(e)y loving MB's. They've raised a whiskey freak-flag...

Is your inner bastard Magnificent enough to salute?

CROWDED BARREL WEE GLEN

Imagine, if you can: Your whiskey, but smaller. Sleeker. More mobile. Versatile. Agile. Some may even say cuter.

Using a revolutionary new technique known as THE SAME THING BUT SMALLER, science has brought us ever closer to the tiny whiskey dream of the future. Whiskey Tribe Wee Glens hold a mere 40% of a traditional Glencairn, meaning you can drink 2.5x more than usual.

Don't check my math, it's fine.
