WHAT: Jim Beam Bourbon
IN HONOUR OF: Bruce LaBruce
WHERE: Claremont, Kentucky
WHY: As his punk/gay porno cinematic oeuvre would suggest, Bruce LaBruce has never been one for compromise. So it comes as no surprise that he has proclaimed, in a Drink Up exclusive, that the boilermaker is his poison. A straight-up bourbon, downed in one, chased by a beer is definitely hardcore. You don’t need to get all fancy-pants, single-barrel, small-batchy artisanal here just good, solid, reliable find-it-everywhere whiskey. Make this your Pride money shot.
PRICE: 750 ml/$25.95
AVAILABILITY: At most liquor stores (product #21378)
