In anticipation of St. Patrick’s Day, Nate & Orey discuss a bevy of Irish beverages, and wines that thankfully aren’t from Ireland. Self-driving cars being a boon for the beverage industry is in the news. “Under the Radar” picks are Five Farms Irish Cream Liqueur, Teeling Single Grain Irish Whiskey, Ercavio Tempranillo from Spain, and 3 Sheeps Brewing’s Cashmere Hammer Nitro Stout. In the “Don’t Believe the Hype” section Bailey’s Strawberries & Cream Liqueur, and Guinness Blonde American Lager are both scrutinized for being unnecessary line extensions. In “Is It Worth It” 2012 Zind-Humbrecht "Hengst" Gewürztraminer Grand Cru from Alsace, France gets love for being the perfect splurge for spring and a white wine for long-term aging.
