0895 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Starting to open some bottles to prepare myself for trying all 10 4R recipes. Today I cracked open an OBSQ (left) and an OBSO (right). No surprise that the Q is way bettter than the O. Trying to get some air into the bottles before doing my grand tasting. 4R always seems to taste like dirt to me out of a newly opened bottle Happy Sunday to everyone!

Louisiana Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Enjoying some William Larue Weller while watching the Packers get stomped. Missed the first part of the game, because my neighbor cop caught 3 young guys shooting spectacled belly geese off the road in our corn fields. We scared the hell out of them, but didn't want to ruin their lives with 5 tickets apiece, losing their trucks & guns, & going to jail. We know their dads, so they will laying some poly pipe this summer for free. Young & Dumb. All I gotta say about that. I did take the specs home with me though. Gonna make some good gumbo with that meat! Cheers, Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Dick Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 some SAOS 8 year single barrel 120 proof. very nice. I've had it for a few years, opened it a few months ago. tonight, It took a while to place the familiarity of the aftertaste......Dickel. I've never heard anyone say 'dickel' after an MGP sip, but that's what I got a faint hint of after a while. Fortunately, I like Dickel anyway. I continue to buy SAOS barrel proofer's when I see them. I find them the best offerings out there to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journeyman Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I bought af Blanton's store pick that I'm not ready to open yet (want to work down my open bottle count a bit) but am having a pour of ETL, to stay with the same mash bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the top of the "bottom shelf"! I would hardly call Dickel 12 "bottom shelf"... I still have a bottle of 12 from 2006 when I went on a tour there, and that was their flagship!

I would agree with taste/quality that it's not bottom shelf but it cost $30.99 (1.75) at my LS... so that is less than $13.50 per 750????

Thanks to you and Whiskey Dick and emr . . ., etc., Now I don't feel so ashamed. I hit the EW BIB and RR 10YR (90 proof) last night (trying to empty some shelf space). Tonight, some more RR 10YR. I cannot believe this is 90 proof - it is chewy, complex, cool (as opposed to biting), and long-finished. While my usual (i.e., trashcan) bottle is OGD BIB, this makes for a nice change - even if I have to get up and go get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
