A Spirited Journey Through Dogs, Craft Distilling Challenges, and Triumphs with Four Dog Distilling co Owner Jeff Kline

Send us a text


Join us as we uncork the alluring world of craft distilling with
the charismatic Jeff Klein from Four Dog Distilling. Settle into
our basement studio—a veritable man cave of spirits—where tales
of distillery origins flow as freely as the moonshine. Jeff
shares the raw and often unspoken challenges faced by craft
distillers, from the labyrinth of licensing to the taxing
realities of taxation, all punctuated by the camaraderie that
only a good pour can foster. Our conversation isn't just about
the hurdles; it’s a toast to the shared passion that turns
camping trip moonshine into cinnamon whiskey sensations.

Craft distilling is both a science and an art, as our friend and
fellow distiller Alan Bishop can attest. Together, we journey
through the nuances of flavoring spirits, the consistency of
taste, and the legal dance of ingredient inclusion. Your palate
will wander through the world of canal-aged whiskey, as we reveal
how different climates and aging techniques coax out the most
tantalizing flavors in bourbon. Hang on to your tasting glasses
as we reminisce about distiller Mike's early adventures and how
they've shaped our pursuit of exceptional spirits.

As we wrap up, we're lifting the veil on the economics of the
distilling game and pondering the trends that keep the spirits
market buzzing. From the unique moonshine flavors emerging from
Four Dogs Distilling at 815 East Talmadge Avenue to the
grassroots marketing efforts that bind us to bourbon enthusiasts,
we're celebrating the personal connections at the heart of the
industry. So grab a glass, and let’s share in the warmth of good
bourbon, good friends, and the musical homage to whiskey's role
in life's most convivial moments.
