How to Drink Outcast Brands with Jason Kidd

Are you ready to be comfortable with discomfort? Our guest was. Now after nearly 25 years in the Guinness and beer space, he’s making a name for himself in the spirit world.

Jason Kidd, founder of Outcast Brands, spent most of his career trotting around the globe working with beer; now he’s home in Ireland making Blood Monkey gin and Two Shores Rum. Both prove that, in Jason’s words, “interesting drinks are always on the margins of the category that we work in.” Find out why his two liquids are not only breaking the mold but Irish through and through.
