It's my man Gee Dub's real birthday today, so celebrate that shit like he would have: smoking dudes with a musket and pounding gallons of cider. Or something.
I tell you what Applejack is over here. Drink it. For America.
When Robert Laird founded the first commercial distillery in America back in 1780, it probably never occurred to him that we'd still be indebted to his initiative centuries later. The product of his efforts, Laird's Applejack, which his family had been producing privately for some 100 years prior, is a brandy made from fermented cider. To make it back then, they'd bury a barrel of cider in the frozen ground, then scrape off the ice that formed on top. Voila, old-timey drinking! MORE
