20: Ep. 20 "My Favo(u)rite Irish Whiskey" with William Grass and Redbreast PX Edition

On this episode I got to spend some very special time with the one and only William Grass, better known to some of you online as Nevada Drams or @NevadaDrams (  / nevadadrams  ) .

William invited me to his bar in Northern Nevada back in late January of 2024 as I was starting a six day cross country trip from Reno in Nevada to Daytona Beach in Florida with my son. 

It’s not just any bar, to be fair, as Liam’s Pub, as it’s known, is named in honor of one of William’s old firefighter friends who left us way too soon.

Now you won’t find Liam’s Pub on Google Maps or listed on Yelp and that’s because it’s built in William’s house and it was an honor to sit and chat with him overlooked by over 200 fantastic bottles of fine Irish whiskey.

It’s will be no surprise to you that we chatted for ages and talked about William’s Irish whiskey journey, the growth of the Irish whiskey industry in recent years, Irish whiskey pricing in Nevada and the wider US, and we went down a few rabbit holes too talking about the great work done by Barry Chandler and Stories & Sips and Irish Whiskey Experiences as well as talking about one of the finest Irish Pubs in the US, McMullan’s in Las Vegas. 

And we talked about all of this as we sipped on William’s current Favo(u)rite Irish Whiskey, which is the PX Edition from Redbreast, which happens to be one of my favorites too!
