Can you imagine Barney Fife after a couple of pours of WTR101?  I watched Don Knotts in "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" today.  Classic!

u should of you like the peanut flavor. I️ don’t care for it and was sorely disappointed in both Rowan’s creek and Noah’s mill.

Nothing.  I went to pick up pizza for a Christmas gathering.  I left early so I could stop at the liquor store next to the pizza shop.  I ended up sitting in the parking lot listening to a Moody Blues CD because I read they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Fame.  What was I thinking?  An opportunity missed.

Hangar 1 vodka.  It has a nice seal


Ok funny from that angle almost looked like a bottle of dish soap. Those are some great bottles particularly envious of the WT101.

Barney was a national treasure for sure.

Ok other than a few bottles of more 4R PS recipes that are supposed to be hitting soon I'm done for the foreseeable future.

Got some 4R OBSV and OBSF right at 9 yrs and a OBSQ at 10yrs.

A Hanncock's, not my first choice for SB MB2 at 88.9 proof but I'm interested in giving it a try.

Some barrel aged beer, CBS, Full Sail wheatale as well a local doppelbock aged in Armagnac barrels I'm really excited about.

Last got really lucky at a local raffle and scored THH and Parker's. Very excited, need to get a lotto ticket with this kind of luck.

All please don't tell my wife.

Today's baby haul. 

 

Ballast Point Victory at Sea aged in High West Barrels.

 

Wild Turkey Forgiven - never met a turkey I didn't like. What the hell. It's the last two weeks of the year. Weird things are going to happen.

 

HUZZAH

[mention=12713]HoustonNit[/mention] was on fire in that raffle today. It was convoluted, but I'm pretty sure your number was called 4 to 5 times.


Only 4.

Wow a whole mix of combo bourbon/rye offerings. Don't the BP HW barrel aged Victory At Sea has made it out to the third coast, once again your beer pics are making me very jealous.

Very curious about the Forgiven, post your thoughts when you crack it open.

Been passing on both of these. Curious about the TW pick of SAOS 107. Heard mixed reviews but I'm a SA fan and and the price is very attractive on that TW pick. Please tell us what you think when you open it.

Thinking of doing a side by side with Smooth Ambler's Contradiction which is also a  blend or bourbons and ryes.

 

huzzah.

Outside of a lucky stroke of finding one in the wild, my LE hunting season has come to a close.

I had a better year than I thought I would. Better than last year which is a surprise since it's been getting tougher every year.

This year's catch:

4R Al Young 50th

PVW15yr

GTS

OFBB x2

PH11 11yr x2

 

You just never know how each year is going to go so this has been a good one.

I thought Contradiction was a mix of wheat and rye bourbon. Which reminds me a great option for the 4G thread. Still worth doing a SBS, please post results.

Haha, ok mum's the word around here.  I'm surprised you didn't take your wife along to improve your chances.  That seems to be the new thing with youngsters at bourbon lotteries
