Does anyone have info on the next Weller 12 release? One shop owner believes BT will do an annual release like PVW and BTAC. Another shop owner said they discontinued to help with Pappy supply. This was a go to bourbon and available everywhere until this year. Bummer.

...The only safe conclusion that came out of the tasting for me is to learn from the masses about what you might like, but only trust yourself to drink what you do like.
or if have a contrary opinion than the masses, negative reviews can be enticing. Blowhard received lots of bad words regarding over-oaked; so that's what excited me. But then I'm about the only fan of Woodford Maple...

Reminds me of when my father-in-law and I were bass fishing in a South Florida canal about 30 years ago. It was tough fishing after a January cold front. We were on the side of the canal, working the weeds, content to be in our 12' aluminum boat with 5 hp outboard.

A big new shiny fiberglass bass boat with 150 hp outboard screams up the canal, stopping suddenly right up to us, tossing our little boat with its wake.

The shiny guy asks "Where's the best place to fish in this canal?"

My father-in-law, with a scowl, says "Right here until you pulled up and scared all the fish away." :-)

I remember that cold front, it froze all the orange trees in Polk County and wrecked havok on the industry. Now that area is all strip malls and condo complexes.

Likewise, I saw an empty bottle of PVW 23 y/o on Facebook, clearly taken at a club with bottle service, and a loud brag about the drinking the "best, yo!" (fill in "yo" with "boyyeeee" or "bro" depending on your demographic). So PVW has unfortunately become a fashion brand.

Just more anecdotal proof that the criminal element has taken control of the Pappy supply. A bit sad.

About 3 months ago, I was told that they were moving to an annual release of Weller12 (rather than two times per year)

I'd expect it soon, but haven't seen tale
