100 Year Anniversary of Route 66! Chapter 2: The "Route" of 66

In 2026 Route 66 will mark its 100th anniversary. With this in mind, Discovering Route 66 was a bucket list item for me. It stretches approximately 2,448 miles and the beautiful scenery from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California does not disappoint.

Established in 1926, this iconic highway traverses a diverse landscape, encompassing big cities, charming small towns, and breathtaking natural scenery.

Along its path, travelers experience the vibrant culture of the Midwest, the arid beauty of the Southwest, and the sunny allure of the West Coast. For me, Route 66 represents the spirit of adventure and the freedom of the open road, celebrating the journey of countless travelers who have taken this legendary route.

Welcome to the official YouTube Channel of Jeff Bradford

My passion for beer, wine, and spirits ignited an urge to investigate the stories behind the labels.

So, in 2018, I sold everything I owned to travel the world.

My objective: to learn the secrets of brewers, winemakers, and distillers.
From Switzerland to Jalisco, I set out to determine why their process yields extraordinary results.

With each stop on the map, I reveal time-honored traditions, cultural influences, and industry practices that help you discover the soul of these incredible products.

As a former member of the US military, I learn by doing.

You’ll see me harvesting grapes in South Africa, pouring beer at Oktoberfest, and chopping agave in Tequila.

My channel is dedicated to the passionate, hardworking people who make the beverages associated with our favorite celebrations, special events and amazing moments with those we love.

Join me as I find the next fascinating story about your favorite Beer, Wine, and Spirits.
Cheers!
