Alden Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I asked my local small LS that is 5 minutes away if they thought they could get some more ryes and some 4Roses, and I went in today, and they had Bulliet rye, and the big 1.5 ltr of 4Roses yellow label, and even 4R Small Batch too!I am shocked. They are all way over priced, except maybe the big 4R YL which they want $33.00 for, but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAINWRIGHT Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 They probably recognized that whiskey obsessed crazed look in your eyes as you frantically paced the aisles,and thought damn this guy may spend some money, lets hook a brother up.

BFerguson Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 It's been said before, and is always worth repeating. The absolute best thing that you can do is to make friends with your local whiskey monger. Bar none!!!In time, you will be amazed at what will come of it.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alden Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 They also got in some Eagle Rare. What do you think of that one? I seem to recall it is very like Buffalo Trace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callmeox Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Regardless of what you think of their prices, if you don't buy what you asked for then don't expect them to follow your lead in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably buy that big 4RYL. I owe that much to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisko Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I know, I know... I'll probably buy that big 4RYL. I owe that much to them.That's a pretty good price for an easy drinker. Lord knows a family size of 4RYL wouldn't last very long in my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alden Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Well I went out there today and picked up a Big Fambly Sized 1.75 liter of 4 Roses. Since I am the only one in my fambly that drinks, this will last me a long long time. I talked to the manager. He said he saw the note with 4 Roses on it, and made some phone calls, and that's why they now have two different kinds of it on the shelf. I told him I appreciated it a lot. He smiled. Called me "Brother", as he gave me my change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alden Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 Well, I got the WT rye, but the 101 was gone. So I got the 81.Should have moved faster I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
