Basketball, Bourbon & EthanAlmighty

We’re serving up basketball, Bourbon, and EthanAlmighty—plus a whole lot of heart. No one had as much heart as Russ Smith, a.k.a. “Russdiculous,” playing for the University of Louisville Cardinals. And if you’ve heard EthanAlmighty’s rescue story, from near death to champion, then you know he’s all heart, too—and so is his forever companion, Jeff Callaway. Their teamwork made animal torture a felony in Kentucky. Now, Russ, Ethan, and Jeff have formed a dream team, with Russ’s Bourbon label, Mr. & Mrs., debuting Ethan’s Batch to toast a little kindness and raise funds for Ethan’s 501c3. Join us as we celebrate a night of champions—great stories, great Bourbon, and a great cause!

The program includes: tastings of three Bourbons, including Ethan’s Batch; a special unveiling in the Frazier’s Cool Kentucky exhibition; and other special guests.
