WatchUrSix Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Amazing how different things are in some areas. The last time I found OWA it was in a rural area of AL while passing through. They had a bunch, some from 2010 based upon laser codes. In fact, you might check the laser codes on those bottles you found. There is an article on "SKU's Recent Eats" (and a thread here) on how to decipher the codes (used to be based upon Julian dates). I checked them out and it seems they were all bottled the 256th day of 2016. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtg1 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Stumbled on an Old Forester Birthday Bourbon today! Never had this one, and it sounds like 2016 is a good year to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not tried it yet (it runs about $95 a bottle), but it is next on my 'to try' hit list if I can find it at a bar I found the Iwai (and the other one they released which escapes me at the moment) to be a bit underwhelming and it wasn't helped by a low bottle proof.

mike9903 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Grabbed some birthday bourbon yesterday and EH Taylor single barrel on such today (is that a sign of having a problem when you go to new stores on your lunch break?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temperance Trader Barrel Proof 111.8 pr Big Bottom Port Finished 90 pr Breaker Wheated 5yr 90 pr Breaker Port Finished 90 pr Trail's End 8yr 90pr I wanted to get a 4R Elliott's Select but it was an easy pass at $269.

lcpfratn Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Went back to one of my nearby small town liquor stores and bought the three half gallons of EC12 (with the big old "12" on the front) that I passed on last week. I bought five half gallon bottles there a month ago, but left some for others to find. I should have bought the remaining three bottles a week ago, but they had raised the price to $62.99 and it made me hesitate. I got chastised for not buying these bottles on the thread "what did you pass on today?" so after thinking about it over the weekend, I decided if they were still there today, they were coming home with me. I guess you could say that I have a pretty decent supply of EC12 in the bunker now.

She even made the comment, "I thought I was never sell that stuff." There was a bunch of OW, throughout my ride. I only wish I had more time to look around and more money. I'm in the dog house this morning. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Im headed through that area Thursday. Any suggestions on where there was more stock on OW 12 WatchUrSix?

I did leave one soldier behind. There was a bottle for 49.99 in Lavonia, GA. Downtown Bevarge. I had him down to 35$ and was going to get it on my return run. Is a bit far north but that is the only one I know about. My search was random calls driving through the state. Almost every store I went into had the 90 proof Weller.

Richnimrod Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Had an opportunity to score a PH at retail. Had to think it over. $250 is a while bunch of cheese for one bottle of Bourbon.... at least for me it is. Ultimately, I couldn't say; "no." ...Not to such a unique Bourbon. Pre-fire, ultra-age, and been reviewed by several here as very special, so I pulled the trigger. I'll wait a little to open it up... I have no idea why.

FacePlant Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Good day in the bluff city. The Weller 12 finally hit LS in the area. Along with that delivery most also got OWA 107 and CEHT seasoned wood. Of course picked up the 12 and found another bunker Stagg 130. For my palette the 130 ranks down the list from some previous batches. Have to admit to a smile after seeing that W-12 in the front seat of so many of our SB posters.

Richdel Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Faceplant, did the stores you visited have any W12 left behind? Might want to work a deal with you if they did... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
