I’m not saying I’m drinking it neat, but if I need a cocktail EW BiB > Jack/Crown/all the other nasty shit Timely thread is timely. Just picked up a bottle of EW BiB a few days ago when I saw it for just under $15. Don't think you can do better for under $18 or so (which is the amount I typically see it priced at).

May 14, 20214 yr Picked up a couple ryes today. Alberta Cask Strength Rye and a Elijah Craig Rye. Ended up seeing a few more bottles of the EC at NASA if anyone is looking.
May 14, 20214 yr Yeah, the EC Rye has officially dropped in Texas. Spec's has it and I saw at Goody Goody today as well.
May 14, 20214 yr The son in laws haul the last 2 days. The big bottle is mine, and the EH Taylor if I can black mail him.
May 15, 20214 yr Hit up poison girl for the first time and tried a few pours that I’d never had before I had Weller 12 ($12) and Old VW 10 ($30) back to back, and didn’t feel like there was much of a difference there. Similar pours, but VW was maybe 10% better

May 15, 20214 yr It’s a sad day when I get excited about landing an ER10 at retail. There was a time a few years ago I had over 20 in the bunker.

May 15, 20214 yr Idk but I text BigD to let him know I was given the choice of EHT Small Batch or ER10, not allowed to have both. Wild times we are living in [emoji2357]

May 16, 20214 yr Yes Las Vegas. I’ll be there in a few weeks. Taking an extra suitcase that your tax dollars will be paying for, so maybe I’ll find something decent and indulge one of you poor saps.

May 16, 20214 yr My update Old Forester Power Rankings : 1) Birthday (2020 and 2019 were awesome) 2) Old Forester SiB Barrel Strength 3) 1870 4) 1897 5) Old Forester 100 6) 1910 7) 1920 8.) Rye I wanted to move OF100 up. It's so cheap and so good. 1897 opens up really well, but I still like 1870 by a hair. I need to open my bottle of Old Forester 150 Batch 3. I fully acknowledge I have no shot of ever getting a bottle of 117.

If you've never had their stuff, I'd recommend it. With Dedman leaving I expect Kentucky Owl to go downhill in a hurry.

May 16, 20214 yr Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit is delicious. And I don’t like Turkey. And yet you like Russell’s.

The rye is actually pretty respectable for its price. OFBB . . . someday.

May 17, 20214 yr BigDickheadhornfan is correct, I fuckin love me some RR SiB picks. The 10 year is hot nasty garbage and the regular SiB is unremarkable. Never been able to get on the Turkey train other than that until this Kentucky Spirit. Rare Breed is ok, same for the rye. Longbranch is swill. The Japanese release 13 year was bleh. But that’s enough Turkey talk. Let’s talk taterrific goodness that came in the mail yesterday.
