He likes Miller's once or twice a year, and loves eggnog, so I thought he might like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TunnelTiger Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Out picking up rib eyes and potatoes for the grill tonight I got another bottle of ER10 barrel pick. Before I bunker a case just want to be sure it tastes as good as the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suntour Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Spent nearly the whole day hitting up liquor stores in my hometown looking for dusties or BTAC/Pappy sitting on shelves at exorbitant prices (not even to buy just never even seen these in the wild) but absolutely no luck at either. Did find an OGD ball marker / divot repair tool for $2 though, that came home.After a disappointment laden day, a bright spot appeared - a private pick barrel proof OBSV from 2011. It was nearly $50, but still a deal if they're really going to $80 next year. Then in a seasonal miracle, it rang up at $29.99. I informed them of their mistake but they still honored the price. Should've cleared the shelf but thought better of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudsky Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Good on you for pointing that out! Good on them for honoring the mistake also! Heck 29.99 for a standard 4roses single barrel is even a decent price.

Hop Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Picked up a couple more bottles of HH6BIB. I'm good on these now for the bunker. Those looking it appears they are fairly plentiful around the Bowling Green KY area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbt Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Picked up the JD Holiday Select 2014, two bottles actually. I got one for my dad for Christmas; we tried it that night and I actually liked it quite a bit. So today I got one for me as well, and then one for my newly born daughter. I figure since she was born during the holiday season it would make for a good gift to her in 21 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil T Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Stopped at Jungle Jim's on the way to the airport. .just because. Oh look, they have 6 or 7 bottles of Tom's Foolery. I pull 6 bottles out to look at them. All batch 2. One bottle left, of course they are on the top shelf, and this one is pushed to the back. Stretch out, grab it....bingo, Batch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hop Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Out checking the local ABC stores in NV and 3 of 4 were pretty wiped out. I did manage to pick up an EWBIB that gets good reviews here as well as the last OWA to add to the bunker. As tough as its getting to find anything Weller I decided to put back half a case of it.

docbible Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Weller 12 is back in East Tennessee if you ask for it ( stores seem to be keeping it in the back and off the shelves). Picked up two 750's for $26.99 each. The first store let me have just one for $43.00 includes tax and discount. Hindsight 20/20. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Bought my first ever personal bottle of Baker's today. Had it now and then while out, but never a bottle at home.Paddy made me do it....I'm bad like that.:grin: Hopefully you'll enjoy as much as I do. I get a significant green wood note initially, that blooms nicely into a cinnamon stick drizzled in maple syrup finish. Moderately lengthy, but not quite as long as in your Dickel 9, IMO.
