This is one of a VERY few good bourbons you can get in PA. It's really good stuff!
Greetings! I'm from just outside Lancaster, PA. Where are you located in SE PA?
Joe- Didn't know you were just up in Reading. Sometime we should meet up with Dave Ziegler at Continental for a tour. It's an awesome place if you haven't been there yet.
Greeting fellow PA whiskey drinker? Whereabouts are you in the state? I'm down near Lancaster, PA. Here's some fun links to explore:

Which bourbon are you looking for? I frequent Maryland on the weekends for a change of scenery and I've been known to be seen in several different liquor vending establishments. I may know where you...
I can imagine control states would be fun. I'd just like to be able to obtain bottles locally- whether in Maryland or PA. Thanks for the reply!
First off, I'd like to say I am a Mellow Corn fan. Probably one of my top 5 favorites. There is something wonderful about it that I just love to sip on. Maybe I'll have some tonight.........

Up towards Joppa, MD is Midway Liquors on the Pulaski Highway. It's my favorite stop. Stan, the owner, has a real love and knowledge for bourbon and rye- along with ALL of his other products!
Discovered this gem a few months ago. Haven't stopped buying bottles since then! This stuff is one of my go-to bourbons for those evenings when I want a sweet, simple sippin' whiskey!
Welcome fellow PA'er! If you ever get to Maryland, I can suggest a few really good places for you. Was just down there today! PA offers quite a bit more than what they have in their stores too. My...
Old Ezra 101 is a $16 excellent choice. 101 proof and aged 7 years. Good stuff.
To me Fighting Cock tastes like a slightly older Old Grand Dad BIB- and since I LOVE OGD BIB, I like the Fighting Cock quite a bit. I wonder how and why they arrived at 103 proof? Always thought that...
Interesting. I'd love to see what the old bottle looks like!
I didn't think it existed in 1980. I thought this was a relatively new creation of HH. Can you snap some photos and post them up?
The more I drink it, the more I like it. I've noticed some similarities between Fighting Cock and Old Grand-Dad BIB (more than just proof being only 3 different). I LOVE OGD BIB and now finding some...
Interesting. How did Brown-Forman end up distilling Rittenhouse Rye and Beam ended up doing other stuff?
Quite a long meandering read. I picked up from it that HH sells bulk whiskey in various forms to anyone and everyone that is willing to pay the price. That being said though, if you reverse 12 years...
What's so funny?
So was it still made by or under the supervision of Heaven Hill or could it be from basically anywhere?
Just picked up a bottle today at the state store. I had just eaten dinner so I'm sure that had some effect on the flavor. I just poured off a shot and started sipping. Right away the deepness of the...
My favorite rye. A good value too.
I finally sampled some of my Michter's I removed from a decanter. HOLY SMOKES is that stuff strong! It was sealed in the decanter and the whiskey is clean and clear so I guess it's still good, but I...
Thanks guys. Right now I am trying to find which whiskeys I like and which I don't. I think living in PA is sort of hampering my choices since it's not as easily available here. I've tried Jack...
I feel terrible drinking such a rare whiskey, but I'd rather consume it than have it evaporate slowly into the air! Eventhough I am new to whiskey drinking, the small amount I sampled last night when...
