Mike And Matt Taste Liar’s Bench Bottled-in-Bond Rye Whiskey

Liar’s Bench is rye whiskey from the Bear Wallow Distillery in Brown County, Indiana. I picked up this bottle when Matt and I visited Hard Truth Distillery and decided to stop at Bear Wallow Distillery on our way home. We tasted several of their whiskeys and I picked up several bottles to take home for review. This bonded rye whiskey has a mash bill of 55% rye, 35% corn and 10% malted barley. There is no age statement, but it is bonded whiskey, so it is at least four years old. Matt and I sat down to taste this whiskey the other day and here are our tasting notes.

The Fresh Donuts At This Tiny Indiana Bakery Are The Kind You’ll Think About For Days

A donut shop once ran an ad asking drivers, politely, to stop crashing into it. I laughed first. Then I wanted the whole story. Cars hit the building in 2014, in 2016, and again before October 2024. Each crash meant a temporary closure. Oddly, each one also brought in curious new customers.

The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Burger Giant You Might Have Forgotten About

Burger Chef was a popular fast food restaurant chain that opened its first location in Indianapolis in 1957 and quickly expanded to 440 locations by 1966.

Depending on your age, you may not have realized that Burger Chef was a very real, and very popular, fast food restaurant chain. The first location opened in Indianapolis, IN in 1957, but within just 20 years, it would be plagued by problems, including financial issues, poor management, and even a high-profile murder case.
