History:

Adapted from a recipe created in 2004 by Jeffrey Morgenthaler at Bel Ami Lounge in Eugene, Oregon. Jeff named this cocktail after a band his business partner, Tony Figoli, was in years before, saying "I thought the name was absolutely brilliant, so I decided to do up a drink to commemorate the band – and my favorite spirit at the time."

Review:

Berry fruit supplements rather than dominates bourbon in this sour.
