Jim Beam American Stillhouse is Now on Airbnb

Jim Beam

If you’ve ever used Airbnb and been tempted to sneak a drink or two from the home bar of the house you are staying in, but you were dissuaded by the thought of getting a bad review … well, you made a good call. But Jim Beam is now offering an Airbnb experience where you can drink to your heart’s content (within moderation, of course) without fear of social media or other retribution.

Starting the week of October 21, bourbon fans can book a stay at a house on the grounds of the Jim Beam American Stillhouse on Airbnb for the low, low price of just $23 — the price of a bottle of Jim Beam Black. The stay will include other whiskey-focused activities, like a distillery tour, bourbon tasting, and some Kentucky barbecue meals at Fred’s Smokehouse.

Jim Beam

The three-bedroom house was built in 1919 on the grounds of the distillery overlooking Everbach Lake. The house comes with a fully stocked bar, naturally containing a healthy supply of Jim Beam and its affiliated brands, a fireplace, and a backyard with a fishing dock. You can reserve your one-night stay by visiting master distiller Fred Noe’s Airbnb profile, and slots are limited so act fast if you are interested. This offer will only last through the end of the year. Travel is not included, and guests must be at least 21 years old to reserve. Also, Fred Noe will not be staying in the house with you, but who knows, perhaps you’ll be lucky enough to catch him walking around the distillery and be able to say hello.

If you do manage to snag a night, don’t forget to spend some time checking out the rest of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail (including some of the newer-school distilleries) while you’re at it.

How to make Frosé for a heat wave cool off
Your guide to making this staple summer drink
Bar Primi Frose

It's hot out there, people. And one of the absolute best ways to cool off is by way of a great frozen cocktail. So, let us introduce you to the pink wine-inspired Frosé, an ideal drink for the next heat wave.

But first, a little history. The Frosé was allegedly born at Bar Primi in NYC. The drink is very much as advertised, a rosé wine-centric frozen cocktail (hence, the name). The Italian joint's general manager, Justin Sievers, came up with the drink, treating guests to an ice-cold pink concoction that's all the better during the middle of summer.

Dry aged steak: Everything you need to know
Just like wine and cheese, steak just gets better with age.
Dry aged steak

 

If you're anything like us, one of your go-to happy places is likely a dark and moody gourmet steakhouse, complete with mustachio'd barkeeps and their impressive list of extravagant steak and bourbon pairings. If this is a scene that sounds familiar to you, you probably know a little something about dry-aged steaks. Until just recently, these incredible pieces of meat were only available in upscale steakhouses, very high-end grocers, and specialty butcheries. Thanks to the passage of time and whispers of praise, however, word eventually got out about how incredible dry-aged steaks are, and now they're much more widely accessible online and even at some mid-level grocery stores.

One of the OGs of the U.S. craft beer scene, Fat Tire, is teaming up with skateboard brand Vans to create new summer packaging for its beer and a range of merch including some branded Vans slip-ons. Known originally for its amber ale which has been reformulated (somewhat contentiously) over the years, Fat Tire is one of the important brands in craft beer history and has recently pushed for a more sustainable approach to its beer brewing.

The brand is partnering with Vans to use its iconic checkboard pattern, known as "Off the Wall" on cans of its ale for the summer. The merch collection being released alongside the limited edition packaging includes hats, shirts, a cooler, and most enticingly, a pair of slip-ons that have the Fat Tire logo and slogan on the back of the heel.
