A Jack Daniel’s fan has accused the whiskey company of going “woke” due to its ad campaign featuring drag queens.
“For those of you who know me well my drink has always been Jack Daniels. For over 150 years since 1866 this drink was always associated with cowboys, warriors, bikers, savage rock bands and all American bad ass people,” Pauly Michaelis wrote in a social media post Friday.
“THEY WENT WOKE,” Michaelis continued. He added a middle-finger emoji and stated that Jasper Newton, the founder of Jack Daniel’s, was “turning over in his grave.”
“THEY took a classic tradition of Americana that was the total definition of masculinity and made it WOKE and for this I say F**K YOU JD and all of your products. You will never have the honor of touching my lips ever again,” he declared.
In his video, Michaelis brought items including a mirror, Jack Daniel’s glasses, and signs he displayed in his pub outside to dump them:

Just sent them an email.
Never again, of course. The association is hereby terminated.
We have so very many choices, I'm pretty certain that I'll find a nice replacement (it won't be a "well" drink, ugh.)
In fact, it'll be fun to conduct the experiments.
Suggestions?
The sad thing is that they hire from Ivy League business and marketing schools. This is the result. Same with the government bureaucracy.
George Dickel, if you like Tennessee sour mash. Much better than Jack regardless.
I used to use Ulta because they put the other competitor in town out of business. I’m betting Sephora is also woke, so I’ll have to keep looking. Ulta carried some nice mascara, but I can find other places.
then go to a up scale bar and order a few different brands. drink them straight until you find one you like. dont take my advise, you were impressed with charred outhouse firewood run off.
Thanks for your friendly and genial reply, my FRiend.
Oh, and btw, Jack Daniels is not bourbon.
Most Kentucky Bourbon is a great.
Especially if the name starts with a B, like Basil Hayden
(They could have named it something else, however.)
Correct, I’m currently doing Four Roses small batch and highly recommend.
The Motlows would hate this
As well as lowering the proof to 80%
Blanton’s (if you can find it)
Elijah Craig Small Batch
Horse Soldier
Angel’s Envy
Eagle Rare
Frey Ranch
Buffalo Trace
Tincup 10 year
Lots of excellent options
Thanks Natty!
(I better try them one at a time, heh heh)
except that it gets attention
and lets more people know
That's the plan. Reduce the quality of life for as many people as possible so as to make them miserable.
They already discontinued Green Jack (Green Label) so we are done. That used to be the Sunday Afternoon Watch the Packers sipping beverage. It’s gone.
I think that guy’s drunk.
Never have been able to drink Jack Daniels. I hope Jim Beam isn’t going woke!
