c2walker Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 How is GTS Brown 100?I don't think it's going to blow anyone away, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it with Halifax last weekend. Definitely a lot of corn, but I also picked up some cherry and nutty flavors on the palate. For $20 per 1.75 liters it's worth having around. Sku also seems to like it.

cbus Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Nabbed a bottle of the Bowman #11 along with a bottle of EC 18, as the word around here seems to be that it may be going away, at least for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtoys Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Luckily checked TPS website this afternoon and nabbed an AB 11.Told a friend 8 left; he hesitated; it's all gone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that the barrels used for EC18 *single barrel* edition (not all EC18) would be going away (temporarily) in deference of the EC20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalessin Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 OGD 114 to give it a taste, and to make some bourbon Manhattans. At $20/bottle, it's cheap enough to experiment with. I've found it at exactly one store along my usual routes around the Boston area.WTKS with a smooth dark brown cap, my first "semi-dusty", also added to the WTKS Versions thread. I'm looking forward to tasting this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I picked up Bernhiem Wheat Whiskey after work. That's another one I had wondered about after reading sort of mixed reviews. Now that they've dropped the price a bit, the curiousity got the better of me. I'm liking it, but not blown away. I will be interested to see if it changes after sitting in the cabinet minus a few generous pours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
