Hosts: Liz Rhoades, Lew Bryson, & Martin Duffy
What You'll Learn: Join a trio of drink industry veterans in weekly conversation on whiskey, spirits, distilling, marketing and the current state of the drink industry. This week, Steve Beam, president and distiller at Limestone Branch Distillery, joins the group.
About Steve Beam: Steve Beam's bourbon roots run deep. Steve's great-great grandfather was Joseph Washington Dant, an early bourbon pioneer. On the other side of his family tree, he is the great-grandson to Minor Case Beam, the eldest son of Joseph M. Beam, of the legendary Beam lineage.
Since college, it was Steve's dream to return the Yellowstone brand back to the family. In 2010, together with his brother Paul, they started Limestone Branch Distillery. Shortly thereafter, they brought the Yellowstone back to the family and restored it to its original glory, more than a century after his great-grandfather Minor Case Beam sold his distillery to J.W. Dant. Limestone Branch Distillery today blends the Beam history and heritage with the brothers' passion for making great spirits in small batches.
