Also, during our time with Jager, we worked closely with Adam Grayer, who was Jager\u2019s marketing\/band coordinator and was the person who called me in 2002 offering my band a sponsorship from Jager. Adam is now with Coldcock Whiskey and we look forward to working with him as well as Rick once again as they\u2019ve believed in us for many years, Being an American herbal flavored whiskey, Coldcock Whiskey\u2019s carving out its own niche in the alcoholic beverage industry, much as the way FPB has done for 36+ years in the music industry. Although my band has the word \u2018polka\u2019 in its name, we never wanted to be limited to only that genre when it comes to performing, as we love playing an eclectic mix of tunes. Here\u2019s hoping for bigger and better things from Fritz\u2019s Polka Band and Coldcock Whiskey!
