Grabbed a lone bottle of WLW'09 for $77. Not a great price, but it's set by OLCC and this will likely be the only bottle of it I see. BTAC is one of those "take it or leave it" propositions out here...and I usually take it.
I definitely notice (and am enjoying) the extra proof to this years version. Even with an ice cube it's pretty hot for a wheater. It's nice they don't release the same thing every year...kudos to BT

Picked up Weller SR in the old bottle. Haven't had this one before.
found a 375 of OWA from 92 in Brooklyn! Happy Hanukkah to me!
After not seeing one anywhere for the past year, came across a Weller 12 today.....started to think it had gone the way of the Centennial.
Found a Louisville gold vein OWA with faux tax strip and looks like a 95 bottling date. Had the rather steep sticker price of $29.99 but the red bag it came with, sealed the deal.
I took the 45 minute drive down to the South Loop Binny's and did a little bit of Four Roses Barrel Strength OESK and OBSK (spicy) tasting with Lost Pollito (Joe). I ened up prefering the nose of the OESK and the neat taste to OBSK. Then I cut them a bit with some water and I prefered the OBSK as extra Rye seemed to hold up a little better. I ended up going with a bottle of OESK and a VWFRR!![]()
Nothing, they do not have bourbon in Michigan's Upper peninsula! I brought 5 bottles with me just in case
