HoustonNit Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Hey, I found this rare bottle[emoji3] in the back of the cabinet and thought maybe a few of the veterans above could help me identify it. I'm willing to send samples if interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Just want to see what others have managed to get their hands on, so here's mine.....now show me yours! Is that Old Scout Rye that good? Do you prefer the WLW or the GTS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOURBONPOOR Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 1 hour ago, HoustonNit said: Is that Old Scout Rye that good? Do you prefer the WLW or the GTS? Yes, the old scout rye is that good. It is actually the best rye that I've had the pleasure of drinking and old scout also has a 9 and 10 year rye that I have not been able to get. It seems I love all the ryes that have at least a 95% rye mashbill Between WLW and GTS, I'd have to say the Weller is simply the best wheated bourbon I've ever tasted. I've drank cases of these already, but these are my last three bottles left and it just feels like a sin to drink them since I can't get them anymore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well.Can't imagine going cases of BTAC must of been nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamp55 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Jeez Louise, this thread is hilarious! I guess it's good that we can poke a little fun at our own obsessions, huh? (BTW, does anyone have a lead on how I can get some of that red-cap Elmers???) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonNit Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I wish!!!!! Unfortunately, this is just the 2015 Ariel the Mermaid LE. I've heard the 2017 blows it away. Not as heavy on that briny note. The '15 is still good juice, though... By the way, can anybody point me in the direction on how to decipher AquaBall cap codes? I can figure out the "Best By" info, but not the info above that... Not sure how many people use Tapatalk to access SB. In Tapatalk there's advertising based on your interests. I know for AquaBall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally, the highly regarded (Fred Minnick scored it a 98/100 in his new book, "Juice Curious") 2017 LE "Rapunzel" aquaball has landed in the ATL!! Picked up one to drink and one for the stash. Always magnanimous, I left a couple on the shelf for you fellow SBers. Can't wait to pop this bad boy later to see if the hype is warranted!!! Of course in another show of my magnanimity, I'll wait to open with good friends to share it with!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
