What bottle(s) did you open today? Summer 2018

[BMartin42]

Opened a bottle of John J Bowman as I sit down to watch a little football. Really like this bourbon and it has become one of my daily drinkers.

Wish that could be a daily drinker for me. Can be pretty hard to find around here sometimes. I’ll join you in popping one open though since there were 6 at the store. Three joined me at home so I don’t feel bad at all about cracking one.

My first grandson was born last week so this weekend after some delicious steaks I told my son to pick from the un-opened bottles one we can open in celebration. This is what he chose... IT IS AMAZING... We switched to Stagg jr. to go with the celebratory cigars...

Opened up a Redemption 9yr High Rye Boubon old style bottle, batch #1.  It's sporting classic MGP non chill filtered goodness.  It's a real winner, with the drawback being the high price.  Smooth Ambler, how I miss you so.

I miss walking into NASA and reviewing the spreadsheet of over 25 different barrels they had to choose from.

Realized last night that no bottles were open in my cabinet. This is the first time ever that I’ve been in this situation. Had to do something about it!

 

Cheers, Jeff

The important thing is that you kept you head and didn't panic and open an ordinary bottle...

GTS 129.2 proof.  My first BTAC to open.  Now I get the hoopla, :-)...........................

This isn’t bad. Lots of ethanol on the nose, very light in color, but sweet with a lot of vanilla on the palate. Finish is short, but not bad for a $22 bourbon.

All in all, drinkable

Cracked open an Old Granddad 114 tonight

Auburn is good, but Hogs should be better.  Change your mojo, and go to Whistle Pig?

You are right about that.  New coach has to dig out of mess left by the previous one.  Just hope to get better one game at a time.
