The news returns to the Drinks Adventures podcast for the first time since 2021!

This first edition for 2023 is using the term ‘news’ a little loosely, as I’m catching you up on some of the stories that have been on my radar since the beginning of the year:

• Lark dismisses buyout talk; and Sullivans Cove speculation;
• Pernod Ricard's first new brand in 20+ years;
• Indie bottler Boutique-y returns to Oz;
• Australia gets its second Advanced Cicerone; and 
• Bentspoke collaborates with Teeling Whiskey for St Patrick’s Day.

Exclusive Drinks Adventures stories mentioned in the bulletin:

• Court lifts lid on Pirate Life distribution bust-up
• Lark launches IPA whisky, but ‘core range is king’
