I picked up a 2011 PHC and 2011 OFBB yesterday. I also ran across three bottles of Hirsch 16 Year Old. If you're willing to pay the $195 a bottle the guy wants send me a PM and I'll let you know where to look.

Have you tried either of these yet? I always look forward to the Birthday Bourbons and I have been really curious to hear about the PHC.

Not yet. I've been fighting a head cold all week. Being sick is about the only time I'm not in the mood for whiskey.

Went to party source this morning with hopes of maybe getting a bottle of the BTAC. Got there at 8:10 and they were already sold out. Apparently that little blurb they said about a 2 bottle max and trying to get this stuff to "as many bourbon fans as possible" was pure b.s., as I saw several people wandering around the store with cases of the stuff (not that I got there in time to get any anyway, but still...). All I came away with was a bottle of weller 12.

Let me know what you think...I haven't picked up the 2011 bottle yet.

The "cases" you saw were the empty boxes... A lot of folks were asking for them for the info sheets inside (and to carry their two bottle allotment). I was close enough to the front of the line to see that no one got more than one or two bottles.

Thank you for the clarification there.

If you need to "try before you buy" feel free to stop by for a glass or three. :grin:

Since I struck out on the BTAC again I consoled myself by ordering 1-PHC 2011 and 1-Four Roses Limited 2011. It should be here Friday.

Picked up an ORVW 10/107 today - hidden behind some boxes at my local store. I went there to get some O'Douls for the wife, a simple task, and I walked out having to make yet another excuse for buying more whiskey :)

Picked up a BT single oak #35. It's no secret that I'm a fan of wheaters, can't wait to compare to my #189.

Bought a bottle of Blantons today.

The first one Ive been able to get here in about 3 years. It was always my favourite, but , damn, its expensive.

I was able to pick up an OFBB '10 or '11, not sure which, but it says bottled in 2010, and an Old Forester Prohibition Repeal set. Not sure if I'm gonna pop the top on the set. ever.
