#23: Ned Wight of New England Distilling - Vacation Edition

Beast Masters Club

The Beast Masters drop in on Ned Wight at New England Distilling in Portland, ME for a “North of the Wall" vacation podcast between Lobstah rolls and steamahs. We could not have asked for a warmer welcome from a nicer guy. Ned took us deep behind the scenes of his distillery and delved into the real nitty gritty of his craft, methods and practices. After the tour and schooling, he treated us to a great little tasting. New England Distilling is a true craft endeavor and a real passion project. Ned and his crew are in this to make excellent, unique and interesting spirits and I think we can say they’ve got some great things happening. This is one of the more in depth discussions about the art of distilling that we’ve had yet on the podcast. Tons of information here for the true whiskey freaks. Pick up some of Ned’s Gunpowder Rye, Eight Bells Rum, or Ingenium Gin (he’s got a bourbon but it all sold out locally) and sip along with us.
