unclebunk Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Old Forester 75th Anniversary Repeal Bourbon straight from the bottle. Not bad. Not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclebunk Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Finishing up on a really...weird...day, with a stiff pour of OGD 114. Dang, is this fine, fine, whiskey. I find it inexplicable as to why Beam sells such a nicely aged, barrel proof, beautifully packaged, lip-smackingly delicious bourbon, at such an outrageously low price...They must really love us...and, I ain't complaining. Ya know, Beam takes a lot of crap on these boards. But, when I sit down and think about it, they do a heck of a lot of things "right", by us. So true, Joe. I always have a bottle of OGD114 on hand and it seems to be very popular with all of my friends when they visit. We absolutely fly through the stuff and nobody can believe the price when I tell them what I paid for it. Amazingly good value, that's for sure!

savagehenry Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Nice! We've all been there, brother. But, as you probably know, she has parked your transgression away for payback at another time. Them females is sneaky. You know you're going to pay her off eventually! So, celebrate hard now, on your nice haul!:toast: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I've been banished upstairs, since Mrssmokinjoe has the girlfriends over for a Holiday drunkfest. Watching SNL Christmas on TV (BTW, if you got nuthin' to do, turn it on as it's hilarious!), and ripping through the bunker. B&B OWA is shining, tonight. The New Holland Beer Barrel continues to impress, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's a gift like EC18 from HH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffrey r Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 (edited) The New Holland Beer Barrel continues to impress, as well.I've had my eye on this at Astor, may have to pick it up. Wanted to see some feedback before making the purchase though, and it seems to be positive so far.On topic, started out with some OGD 114 tonight, and then moved on to V17. Both great in their own way. Took out the PHC 2012 devil's batch bottle, but that may be pushing it. Edited December 8, 2012 by jeffrey r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I judge my postitive impression with it is based on a comparison to the Harrison Bourbon (another LDI bourbon). It is definitely better than that. Much better. But, it ain't cheap at $35. So, YMMV. Regardless, it is solid, tasty, and worthy additon to my rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelturtle1 Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Started by sharing a few good pours of PVW 20 with my neighbors, then moved to VWFRR and am now enjoying a healthy pour of Weller 12...also eyeing up HW 16, that would be a nice cap to the wheater/rye evening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobP_n_TN Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 A nice pour of Buffalo Trace.... I skip past this bottle too often (and shouldn't). This is a solid bourbon at a reasonable price.Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theglobalguy Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 AAA 10, then onto baby Saz, then finishing with Yamazaki. Gotta love the AAA at that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
