Jeremiah Weed is a brand of bourbon whiskey-based products, including a 90 proof blended whiskey distilled in Kentucky[1], and a bourbon-based 100-proof liqueur manufactured in Connecticut. In 2011, Jeremiah Weed entered the flavored malt beverages market with three blends, all with a 5.8% alcohol content ABV. The Jeremiah Weed brand is owned and marketed by Diageo.
The brand has been promoted by the band Dos Gringos and their song, "Jeremiah Weed." Gary Jules also produced a song titled "Jeremiah Weed" in 1998. Ohio folk singer Eric Nassau includes a song also titled "Jeremiah Weed" on his album Eric Nassau and Friends. Jeremiah Weed is also promoted extensively by The Adam Carolla Podcast.
In 2009, Jeremiah Weed introduced a blend of flavored vodka, Southern Style Sweet Tea, followed in 2010 by a lemonade blend called Half and Half. 2011 saw the introduction of three flavored malt beverages (a category sometimes referred to as alcopop) — Lightning Lemonade, Roadhouse Tea, and Spiked Cola.
In 2011, Jeremiah Weed launched two Brews into the UK: Jeremiah Weed Sour Mash Brew which has a bourbon taste and Jeremiah Weed Root Brew which has a ginger taste. Both are 4% ABV.
