Distillery Puns

It was a whisky business

Whiskey business.

... but I found the work staggering.

It's a whiskey business, after all.

I guess I misunderstood when my therapist told me not to keep everything bottled up.

She would be barrel caskin'

They are always looking for more proof!

It was Whiskey business

The other replied ‘yes, but not as whisky as wobbing a bank’

It was a whiskey business.

"Is this whiskey?" I asked him. "Yeah!" he replied. "...But not as whiskey as wobbing the bank!"

Two Chinese guys break into a distillery. After breaking open the first cask one of them says to his friend, "Is this whiskey?"

His friend says, "Yeah, but not as whiskey as wobbing a bank."

So my wife's birthday was coming up, and she really loves absinthe. Lately she had been talking about visiting some bars or restaurants that served it, so I decided to splurge a bit and buy her a set of glasses and spoons, along with a nice bottle of "the green fairy."

Doing a little research, I discovered that a local distillery produced a well-regarded version of it, so I decided to hit a few liquor stores around town to see if they carried it. As luck would have it, the first place I went to did have some in stock.

I took it up to the counter and got into a conversation with the cashier. I explained how this was going to be a birthday present for my wife, and hopefully it would score me a few points in the romance department. His response: "Well, you know what they say--absinthe makes the heart grow fonder!"

I was dumbstruck. He started to apologize for his "corny joke" (as he put it), but I waved him off and was finally able to commend him on his brilliance. The best part of all--I have a great dadjoke I can repeat to co-workers and family members (or anyone else who will listen) for repeated eye rolls and exasperated groans.
