Coors Enters the Whiskey Business

Colorado's Coors family has been making beer for five
generations, but it's also been supplying many of the state's
craft distillers with malted barley for more than a decade. Now,
the family has decided to make its own whiskey using a blend of
Colorado single malt made with its own malted barley and Bourbons
from Kentucky and Indiana. It's part of a company goal to expand
into distilled spirits, as David Coors explains on this week's
WhiskyCast In-Depth. In the news, the results from this year's
San Francisco World Spirits Competition are in, and whiskies from
Australia did extremely well in the judging. We'll have the rest
of the week's whisky news, tasting notes, and on Behind the
Label, we'll answer a listener's question about his cloudy bottle
of whisky.
