lcpfratn Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I thought they had done something like that but could not remember for sure. Thanks for confirming! This is what the new Maker's 46 cask strength looks like now that they are providing it as part of their Private Select series. Generally it is still only available at the gift shop, but I think a few liquor stores have been able to choose it as their Private Select option for sale in their stores.

Masset1982 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Reached out for the only 90 proof of my cabinet, i have to be honest, it’s pretty tasty for such a low proof bourbon. Wouldn’t pay secondary prices for it though, but it’s nice to have some. Cheers! Will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccleve23 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Small taste of 4 roses single barrel (picked by Brent Elliott) that I picked up at the 4 roses gift shop. I forgot how good the regular single barrel is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Joe with a pour everyone wants to wake up to.@Masset1982 is that a zinc countertop? Like an old fashion Parisian bar, very cool. I'm in the process of remodeling my kitchen and would go zinc over granite. Issue is we are likely to turn our home into a rental property in the next couple of years and granite is more popular.

It would pretty cool, but no, it’s form IKEA, it’s made of wood witch is paint, looks pretty good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Actually, quite a few have stores have put together their customized barrels over the last couple years. TPS, Gallenstein, Liquor Barn, Liquor City, Liquor Warehouse, Binny's, Big Red, to name a few. And many times, they put together multiple barrels at the same time, with each one offering a different flavor profile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFitzWithTheGoldLabel Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 A little pre Tyler Childers show drink while listening to The Steeldrivers. It’s an eastern KY themed night here in STL. A dang good way to kick off an action packed weekend. Cheers! I have had a few hours with Tyler. I hope you enjoyed the show. Right now I have some Jefferson's Reserve and Ale 8 1. For those about to rock, I salute you.Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ok you did a good job on the paint. I'm not going to knock IKEA as I'm getting there there cabinets which are actually pretty good and if you go with an external design company they can do some nice stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And many times, they put together multiple barrels at the same time, with each one offering a different flavor profile. That's why the Private Select series was created, but I was referring to the selection of all 10 Maker's 46 staves by stores to create what was formerly known as Maker's 46 Cask Strength. I had heard that some stores had gone that route rather than create their own mix of 10 staves amongst the different stave choices. My bottle was purchased at the Maker's gift shop, since there are no stores in my area that have been able to or wanted to get a Private Select barrel from Maker's.

Clueby Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Did a SBS with older (2014) and new W12. The older one seemed a little richer on the nose and had a bit more of that "leathery" finish that I equate with older wheaters. Had I not tried these side by side I doubt I'd have noticed a difference. The differences I did pick up could have been just due to the 2014 bottle having only a few inches for a long time. Both of them were good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCBourbon Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Opened my first bottle of SAOS 11 tonight. Wasn’t expecting much to be honest, I usually am not a big fan of anything under 100 proof but decided to give this a shot based on friends’ claims that low-proof SAOS is great. This did not disappoint! I can’t believe how much flavor is packed into 46.2 abv...might need to find another bottle or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlutz Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 SBS of EHT BP and Stagg Jr. First, they taste different from each other. Not sure which I like better but the EHT is more refined while the Stagg is both spicier and sweeter. I was maybe hoping I couldn’t tell the difference or that I preferred one over the other so that I could stop buying one, but no such luck. I’ll need to keep shelf space and budget to keep buying both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
