2-10-25: Meck ABC’s BarrelPalooza
Tune in here to this Tuesday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!
Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by talking about BarrelPalooza, a pop-up event at a local ABC store, with rare bourbons and thousands of spirit lovers in attendance. Brett shares an interview with Brian Peter, Vice President of Logistics & Mix Beverage, and Certified Bourbon Steward with the Meck County ABC Board. They discussed what makes BarrelPalooza special, and that 25% of the sales go to local causes with over $300,000 in sales on Saturday alone.
Brett also shares an interview with the first two people in line who had been camped out since Wednesday. They were both bourbon lovers who were happy to camp out for a few nights for the opportunity to purchase some very rare bourbons.
Later, Brett talks to the men vastly influential in deciding which bourbons will be sold at BarrelPalooza in Director of Sales for Republic National Distributing Co., and volunteer as President of The NC Spirits Association Mike Yates, and Co-Founder of the Charlotte Bourbon Society Ken Bernardo.
