Golzee Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Picked up a 1L BIB, it seems that the older versions were far superior. I won't let that influence my judgement when I crack my bottle open. Anybody been sipping on the current version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I tried some maybe a couple months ago. I thought it was pretty good. It's sort of an old standby for me. If you like the standard Heaven Hill mash bill, I think you'll like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_mays Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I bought a bunch of dusty 750s for around $10 apiece some time back. No idea how old they actually were, probably less than 6 or 7 years old. After getting into the first bottle, I went back for all they had. I wish it was more common around here, it would be a hard one to beat even at the $11-13 it seems to go for when I do see it. When I finally consume all of it, I suppose I'll have to endeavor to persevere as I fall back to EWBIB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would really like you to crack open that bottle and tell us what you think. I was behind a fellow in line at Liquor Barn who was buying two cases. Now, a commitment like that might influence my judgment. Maybe just a little, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAGentleman Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I got a bottle recently and it is very earthy tasting. Not my cup of tea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atbat82 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I actually picked up a 1.75L a month ago, though I'm yet to open it. Wouldn't normally buy something that big without having at least sampled it, but I was in a good mood and I think was priced at like $19 or so. Not going to be the end of the world if I don't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mosugoji64 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I had a bottle of dusty, pre-fire HH Dant a few years ago and thought it tasted like rancid corn oil. The current version is much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNovaMan Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 A year or two ago at the gazebo, someone brought a bottle of dusty Dant that had been in a pool hall so long the white label was stained nicotine yellow. Does anyone remember what DSP(s) that was from? It was delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carmel sweetness with some oak. If you like BIB, then pick up a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
