brettckeen Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) Moved on to some w12... Made me think why work so hard if not for a bit of joy so I have dipped into some SW Rebel Yell thanks to Justin. YUM! Makes me think of the bottles of Rebel reserve I picked up this week to try and how utterly disappointed in it I was. It's better than current makers but that's about it. The package of the rebel is all about wheated bourbon and the weller history.... but my oh my SW Rebel even in the later years is a special drop of awesome.Edit: The beautiful legs of the SW Rebel is notable. How often have you had minimum age bourbon hang on your glass all day? Bring back the viscosity! Edited September 17, 2013 by brettckeen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettckeen Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 4R 100th now neat4R 100th is really one of my favorite pours this year. It is one of the bottles on the back bar that makes me proud of where I work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justataste Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Having a wild lunch hour. Started with a double 4RYL followed by a shot of Russell's Reserve followed by a shot of OF BIB. This is really fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Fan Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 A Weller 12 neat, not sure which Weller I prefer the 12 or the OWA. Further research will be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil T Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Picked up my first bottle of ETL over the weekend. It was $26.99, so I pulled the trigger. I had a couple pours Sunday night and just had another one. I'm not loving it, kind of musty and grassy. My foray into BT's ryed bourbons, on the low proof scale, has been:BTOC 10 yrERAAAETLOf those 5, only the OC will be a repeat purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savagehenry Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Just cracked another superb bottle of EC12.I don't know what happened but these last two bottles have been the best of the 10 or so that I've had in the past 18 months.Could be that my palate is starting to favor HH over BT.

hectic1 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 WTRR SB followed by a pour of 1789b OWA #15 SB...the last of the great 7yr OWA's that I've tasted... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoFlyer Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Well...I walked into a store and they had minis of Red Stagg Hard Cider on a trial special for 99 cents. So against my better judgement I grabbed one for research. I know I'm going to get flamed for this, but it wasn't bad at all. I actually found it to be quite refreshing. Started with it straight then added cubes to thin it out just a hint. I honestly don't care for the other flavored options on the market, but this one was actually good. Probably great for mixing and I am actually considering getting a bottle for that purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryT Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Had a nice pour of some EWSB 2012. While one of the lower proof candidates in the cabinet, it is pretty tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babington Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Having one of my favorite pours (as of this year) EC18 and ECBP 50/50, after a long day.that sounds like an interesting mix. get the maturity of 18 with proof about 112 for stronger flavors.

Yeti Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I tried that, but have failed repeatedly. Only had a pour of ECBP as a nightcap last night. Couldn't help myself :-)I'd hate it if I were out of practice for the weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
