*their Yes, I'm that guy. Sorry. Can't help it. Otherwise an excellent comment that I 100% agree with.

[@Gualdemar]

Agree... she brought a fresh air of youth and happiness to the Tribe... and has a great nose.... !!!

Brianna has instantly stolen the hearts of 1000's of fans.

[@steveshooter9010]

I've watched this particular video at least 3 times. Brianna is so delightful!

Absolutely. Big fan of this concept.

It's so weird seeing Briana so tame/reserved. She's such a fun part of the channel now... and very much no longer a noob.

[@dustinpaulson1123]

Whiskey Curious is my new favorite series on KZbin

[@brogankorinta3549]

I just love how they went from the most popular to just throwing every whiskey at her.

[@Normaldude444]

LOL

[@dylanwyatt1786]

I briefly thought, well, not the most accurate title, but after second thought, she did hit the best seller in each "major" category first. If they had done just the list, it would've probably become comparing something to what it should be similar to, which is pretty much what they did in their video.

Alright guys, Briana needs to be a very regular extra to the channel. She's very funny! I love that her tasting notes are a series of facial expressions and hand gestures, and I knew exactly what she meant every time.

[@boomanh63]

I second this! She had me LMAO

[@bonolio]

She definitely has character and presents well on video, 10\10 would watch more.

[@LocatingGoku]

When she nosed the jack and wasn't overwhelmed by ethanol I realized... She's a college student.

[@groberti]

Jack is not that bad lol :D Try Western Gold if you want a true ethanol smell

[@realblakrawb]

Maybe compared to Jim beam or wild turkey. Jack is God awful.

[@groberti]

@@realblakrawb A good scotch is better anyway :P

[@JoshChristiane]

I have a huge array of whiskeys and I never understood the hate for Jack... I actually like the smell and taste, I find it smooth and sweet. Sure, it's not nearly as complex and special as some others, but I don't really have a bad experience with it. Maybe others just over-drink it in college and do stupid stuff then associate the drink with those emotions. Overall though, I find it pretty decent.

[@groberti]

@@JoshChristiane It is most certainly not bad, but to me it is very boring, has no kick to it and the taste is sub-par. It is too sweet and then a bit bitter for me, that's it really. It has a strange taste, it tastes like feet. x) For the price you can get much better. I usually even prefer to drink a Jim Beam White if I want something simple and cheaper. In my country Jack's price sometimes goes up as high as Maker's Mark, and Maker's is just a whole different category, or Jim Beam Black which is again much-much-much better

[@Baklau007]

Every time Red and Daniel bring someone else onto the show for these kinds of videos, is a good day in my book

[@MrV4nd4l]

Two things: 1. This is one of my favorite episodes/formats 2. If she drove after that shoot I'm going to fly to Texas and smack somebody

Briana is very honest now that she's more comfortable with what she's doing. The guys have done a great job of making her feel like she's part of the team and valued for providing the newbie lady perspective. She is a trip! A whisky date with her would be an Uber night for sure.

[@AdamMurrayLive]

She is downright adorable! I'd love to see her try more whiskeys.

[@RossCampoli]

The Tribe guys are so cool - they do such a great job of introducing whisky to people without being condescending. Just positive vibes all around! 👍

I just wanted to say as a noob, this channel has been incredibly helpful and wildly entertaining. Recently became a fan of Bulleit Rye and Woodford Reserve's wheat, reminds me of a boozy applesauce.

[@stogieguy7201]

It's a great channel for new explorers and it would have been great to have it when I started. However the exploring is just part of the journey and it's best done hands on so welcome aboard and hope you enjoy.

[@Demobius]

Try Knob Creek Rye. It's richer and more complex than the Bulleit, my favorite rye so far.

Coming back to this video nearly a year later to say, please keep making Whiskey Curious videos! At least as physical distancing craziness allows. Even if the process is the same every time, watching you two guide whiskey noobs from popular and accessible to interesting and challenging will always be super entertaining and fascinating to me.

[@jmanswat2457]

I like how Daniel&Rex diverted from the top ten most popular whiskies after only four. Meaning, as whisky lovers we can't help but spare newbies from the terrible choices they're bound to make with "popular/beginner whiskies."

[@patricksanchez1684]

I’ve just started binging your channel as videos pop up randomly as I drive to and from clients homes, and the amount of growth Briana has had under you guys is amazing. The content, knowledge, and antics in your videos are amazing and get me through the day.

[@stefanschwalenberg8320]

I think I've watched this video 7 times, at least, and it never fails to make me crack up. Rex's reactions to Briana's comments, especially, are comedy GOLD! It's especially hilarious considering how much she now enjoys so many different kinds of whiskey. Greatest whiskey video on the net by a country mile!

[@cronus1987]

She was so entertaining and I really appreciated their friendly introductions and gentle coaxing of terms and tasting notes. I initially thought this was going to be a pretty pretentious video (having never seen the channel), but man, you guys had me laughing along pretty good a few times.

[@noahnipperus7320]

Brianna fits in perfectly as a co-host (I've seen too many "experienced" drinkers that are incapable of remembering/considering a beginners palate in my short 10 years in the industry) also just her vibe works with you guys which is a compliment to all of you... : )

[@noahnipperus7320]

Do you guys have a podcast? If not, start one with Brianna?

[@T-bone1950]

"armpit", "bucket", "alcoholy", "windy". She is adorable. I just wish the guys weren't so adamant about pushing their opinions of what to expect of each sample before she even takes a sniff.

One of those old wooden ones where you get lulled for a moment up high riding the smooth curves taking in the views and just when you turn to tell your cousin to check out the chicks waiting for cotton candy below you get slammed down a 100 percent grade until you throw up one of your own feet.

I was perfectly happy drinking Bulleit bourbon and rye.
