“Letterkenny” fans rejoice — the comedy show announced on Instagram on Friday that its whisky, Gus N’ Bruno, an “old style Canadian rye whisky,” is now available for purchase in the U.S.
Priced at $60, Gus N’ Bruno “ain’t your regular tame, tired, ten-ply whisky,” according to the brand.
Gus N’ Bruno was allegedly – get it? — “harvested through hours of chorin’ to make for a valiant, vibrant, velvety finish.”
According to the brand, the Canadian rye whisky was aged in oak casks and “hand-selected by the cast and crew on their sold-out North-American theater tour, ‘Letterkenny Live!'”
“It’s in the mail! I’m so hyped” one fan commented on Instagram.
Another user claimed they finished theirs in “one night.”
At the moment, individuals who purchase a bottle of Gus N’ Bruno will receive a gift with purchase: their very own Gus N’ Bruno T-shirt.
It appears the whisky is not available for purchase in Canada, and fans expressed their hopes that the show would consider offering them the opportunity to pick up a bottle — considering the show is set in a fictional Canadian town, debuted on a Canadian network and the whisky is Canadian.
Yet, for the most part, it seems diehard fans of the show can’t wait to get their hands on a bottle of the stuff, and many are questioning when the team will roll out their next boozy project: Puppers beer.

Nose: Delicate and impressively rounded. Dried fruit, crushed white grape and chewy vanilla.
Taste: Satisfying and smooth, with toasted nuts and earthy herbal tea.
Finish: Long, subtle spices with a touch of fruit.

The comedy series just concluded its final season in December, according to Variety.
The show is set in the fictional Canadian town of Letterkenny and centered around the community that dwells in it, featuring the daily conundrums of the hicks, hockey players and the skids. With its pithy, sparkling dialogue and talented cast, the show won multiple Canadian Screen Awards and was picked up by Hulu after debuting on YouTube and then moving to Crave.
The show’s creator and starring actor, Jared Keeso, is currently working on the spinoff series, “Shoresy” which centers on one of the hockey players in the series. The actor was so committed he removed his tooth for the role, according to the Canada Media Fund.
