elmossle Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Bottle of OWA will be hitting the bin in the morning. This was a very nice micro batch done by Julio's and the Loch & Key group. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mako254 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Hope warehouse G is in the rotation soon. For being a store pick from a control state, I was pleased with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob_Loblaw Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Glad it’s Gone. Not as awful as I remembered, drank most of it over a large cube which masks a lot of deficiencies. Still just nowhere near worth the price IMHO. Revisit in 1-2 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_Loblaw Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 One more as I get closer to emptying several bottles to make room for what’s coming. This was ok. The KC 2018 LE Rye was a fair bit better, and older IIRC, but also more expensive. I prefer the KC bourbon store picks by a wide margin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUfan99 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I’ve enjoyed this one. Especially the last half of the bottle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMartin42 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I know this is getting a lot of love but I personally won’t really miss it. Just never wrapped my taste buds around it. Loads better than the “Repeal” bottle in the background though. Just not much of a Beam fan I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUfan99 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Another casualty this week. This time it was a delicious 12 yr KCSiB store pic. Beam is doing it right with these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking to some NC buddies though the people doing the picking are less than enthusiastic about it (or aren’t as maniacal as us)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kemosabe Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Sorry to see this one go down. I really loved it, the nose was super duper = sort of like pecan pie crust. Cheers, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSpartan Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Finished off the first bottle of Weller 12 I was able to find over a year ago. Had a couple friends over to share it with. Glad I have a backup. Now if I can just find a backup to this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive lucked into all my bottles at random. My comment was about the scarcity not being justified by the taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 Well this was just an absolute delight ! While I normally go neat, one or two ice cubes made it very enjoyable. And manhattans.... wow. What a fantastic bottle at a fantastic price. Way to go B-F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BDanner Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) Just put an OGD BIB in the recycle bin (on sale last month for $20). This bottle reminded me that for some strange reason, the OGD114 is solidly in my top 3 regularly available bourbons while I just don't care for the OGD BIB. Weird.

I feel exactly the opposite, taste is subjective, glad that's the way it is! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
