Insight on age of a dusty Baker's I bought today....

I picked this up today, and had never seen this label before. The label's have some patina, hoping someone might have some insight on the age of the bottle and if it's drinkable.

cheers!

Since they used that batch number for several years I date them by the hang tag copyright date. That looks like one of the earlier hang tags. So, I'll guess it's from '92-'94. There are a couple of threads around on the topic. Enjoy!

Thx. Ill see if I can find em with a search. Makes me wonder how in the heck it sat there so long...

I've found at least five or six in the last year that date from '92-'96 I believe. Three of them came home with me. The others had corks that were green/black. So, I left those. Here is one thread that shows two different hang tags but the same label and batch: http://www.straightbourbon.com/forums/showthread.php?19181-Dusty-bottle-of-Baker-s-When-s-it-from
