Old Beezer 10 Years is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon from the ever mysterious NDP Frank-Lin who sometimes talks about their whiskey… and sometimes doesn’t. Sometimes there are details… sometimes there aren’t. This is the weird weird world of NDP whiskey “producers”.
In Frank-Lin’s Words: Old Beezer 10 Years
They don’t talk about this one on their site… weird.
So the question is where does the Old Beezer 10 come from? The two most likely for this to come from is Heaven Hill or Barton; based on the aroma and flavor I would guess Barton because I don’t get any of the typical Heaven Hill Peanut essence. Which we’ll get into deeper in the Old Beezer 10 Years review below!

OVERALL
Old Beezer 10 Years is a perfectly drinkable, but utterly boring bourbon. It has a lot of candy notes which balance off of the more traditional bourbon notes in a way that works, but doesn’t bring any depth to the whiskey and leaves it being quite… boring. Goddamn, the latest Enter Shikari album is not very good… I wonder when Ben Caplan is going to put out a new album, it’s been over 2 years.
Last year was a bit of a let down for new albums, I hope this year is better… wait. Where was I? Oh oh right, the Old Beezer 10 Years Review. Sorry, this whiskey is just so boring that I drifted off there for a minute. Anyways, it’s a dry sugary bourbon with a bit of oak in it and… that’s about it.
SCORE: 82/100 (B-)
