Louisiana Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I thought the first release of EHTBP was in 2012? Either way EHTBP is always in my rotation. I stock up when I can. Since it's a once a year release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 You could certainly be right, Louisiana. I just had it stored among a few other bottles that were from '10, and '11. It very well may have been from'12; or even '13 for that matter. I doubt it would've been later than that, though. It's marked 134.5 proof, if that helps anyone with knowledge of these releases date it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flahute Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I've been in Italy since Sunday and it's been a bourbon wasteland. Lots of standard Jack here. I've seen Jim Beam White at one place (only passing by) and 4RYL at a couple others when it wasn't yet time to drink. I always strike out when ready to drink something so it's been a lot of negronis holding me over. Found some WT81 today for a boulevardier. Looking forward to the native spirit when we return.

Think long term, before you know it it's 35-years later. It happens and I'm retiring this year (almost 35-years later). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golferpimp1 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Trying Old Grand Dad Bonded tonight watching the warriors try and come back. First time I've tried this. It's fantastic, esp for the price. Likely won't be my last bottle of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meadeweber Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I decided that I wanted something "special" while watching the Penguins game last night. What a good decision and great experience. The FRLESmB 2015 was delicious and the Pens won 5-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to see how it compares to my 101 8 year. Each PS RRSB is different, obviously. But, I've had several that crush any 8 yr I've had. SB. Com HHSS #2 to fire up the end of a great week.

Vosgar Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Some Lost Prophet to start the weekend, it's decent but still not overly impressed with it. Going to follow Joe's lead and have some HHSS#2 later on to make everything right with the world and to get ready for the Sampler! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Had an ounce or so of HHBIB during a fairly miserable afternoon of trying to deaden the pain of the morning's root canal, by sloshing a little of it on the gum and tooth and holding it there every fifteen minutes or so. It made it at least tolerable as the novacaine wore off... and was pretty darned tasty to boot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
