It’s another episode of The Idaho Booze Podcast! Lots of firsts on this one including the first double team of guests with Ben Hart from 44 North Vodka and Keith Nero from Sazerac Brands joining Steve in his home bar to discuss how these guys got into the world of adult beverages, Idaho spirits, what’s hot, which spirits are popping in the Gem State, hangover cures, and a host of other topics. We then list some of our favorite summer cocktails and how we would make them better. Plus, there’s Brew News and a host of new drinks on Friday Night Pints. Enjoy the show on Substack, Spotify, and Apple Pods.
