P&MLiquorsEric Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Let us know how the rebel reserve is. I bought a bottle of AAA that someone is bootlegging into their liquor store in Chicago.Make sure it is 10 year and not 10 star. 10 star is available outside ky but I don't believe 10 year is. And for you guys traveling to ky to buy 10 year AAA. Look for a 10-15% price increase and an absence of 750s next time you are in. Liters and half gallons are all that are available from distributor. Have been told 750s are discontinued but have not confirmed with BT yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyOldKyDram Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Anyone buy 750s of that anyhow? And yeah, any price increase is a bummer, but still a bargain regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Dusty Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I'll echo that request. I always pass on the Rebel Reserve because it's more expensive here than EC12 and WT101 - it's just a buck cheaper than Maker's Mark (on sale).Look I'm no Robert Parker, and I don't want to tell anybody what they should like, but I found the RR to be thin and weak. If it is aged much beyond Reb Yell it's a matter of months. Ended up vatting it with OWA and Bernheim and made a palatable pour. Would buy many others before springing for Reb Reserve again. YMMV as they say. Maui I would take any of those three first every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P&MLiquorsEric Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Anyone buy 750s of that anyhow? And yeah, any price increase is a bummer, but still a bargain regardless.Maybe not around here. But in my store, 750s outsold 1.75s by a considerable margin. Liters would be dead if not for on premise accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark fleetwood Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Found EC12 in Cheyenne for $16.49. Miss TPS for sure but I love the West! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Comp Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Make sure it is 10 year and not 10 star. 10 star is available outside ky but I don't believe 10 year is. A few 10 year AAA (as in much less than Pappy few) occasionally make their way up here legitimately. And following up on the Parker invasion of our world this week one could now appropriately refer to AAA as the Blanton's second label . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauiSon Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Saw a new batch of Blanton's, so I had to pick up a bottle - $36 out the door. Also, picked up a bottle of Clear Creek Slivovitz (Blue Plum Eau de Vie). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPBoston Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Picked up a family size OF Signature. This may actually qualify as a "dusty" as it's the old label, and the store's website doesn't even list it at all anymore (not even an 'out of stock').... which is pretty sad, because the 750ml OF:S isn't available at all here either.

jeffrey r Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Just got back from a little Saturday morning bourbon run, before the day's activities kick in. Picked up a couple of store special bottlings, BT Single Barrel Select and EC12 Custom Barrel, and then a retail Bowman Brothers Small Batch.

TheRod Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 With good feedback from the board I went back and purchased an I.W. Harper 15 BHC that I spotted earlier this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bourserker Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Got a second bottle of OFBB 12 based on reading that it's decent. Didn't want to not get it and kick myself later. Also recently bought a EWSB 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjboatwright Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Finally found a ECBP around here in DC (missed the MontCo allocation). Also picked up a 4R PS (OESF, 10y 4m)--thanks to the SBer's that gave some helpful info on the recipe.[ATTACH=CONFIG]15344[/ATTACH] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nd2005 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 OFBB 09. Had seen this sitting on the shelves at one of my local stores for a while but for some reason assumed it was the '11 (which I liked less than other years I've tried) without actually looking closely at the label...glad it was still there!

Sasquatch Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Went out for some great live music last night. Across the street from the bar was a kinda shady liquor store I had picked up some Old Forester Prohibition pints a couple years back so I checked to see if there were any more left. Copped another two of those and grabbed a bottle of Lot B just for the hell of it. Sort of surprised to find VW in "the hood", haven't seen that happen in years.

smknjoe Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Found a lone bottle of JPS 17 batch 5 at less than retail plus a 5% discount. That's first time I've ever seen anything besides batch 3 around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRod Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Found a HW 16 year old Rocky Mountain Rye. One of my favorites. I can't pass it up. I've been hunting for this for quite awhile and was able to score 2 in the past month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmpevans Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 That's some good whiskey. I'ld buy all they have. I generally like the 17 better than the 18 although there was a single barrel 18 on the Gazebo table that was KILLER!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
