kcgumbohead Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Well we are a couple of days into autumn so lets switch gears to the current season. I happen to be enjoying a delightful 4R PS of the OESF recipe, one of my favorites from the 4R stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foppa78 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I am trying Rare Breed for the first time tonight. Incredible smell. Great flavor. This is the 116 proof that I've seen discussed around here a few times. Very glad I picked up this bottle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foppa78 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 My wife and I stopped in a local place for happy hour. I had this Stagg Jr for the first time. It was good. My wife had EH Taylor small batch. Can anyone tell me about these Stagg Jr bottles? Any info on this 126.4 proof? Do they have batch numbers?

Wedelstaedt Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 WTKS PS tonight. This barrel epitomizes WT101 in profile & balance. I hope I can find another bottle. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe summer? I am not an expert on Stagg Jr., but I think there are three releases per year. (If anyone out there wants to correct me, please feel free). BT hasn't given Stagg Jr. batches identifying numbers as of yet. But if you use the search function, you will find batches cross referenced to Proof, on this site.

Wedelstaedt Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Next pour. 4R OBSO. Creamy, fruity, with a little oak. Conclusion: delicious. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedelstaedt Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Last pour. PH11, SiB. Simply amazing Bourbon. All Bourbon should be like this barrel. Good nite. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They release two batches a year. #10 was released last spring. #11 should be coming out soon. Great stuff but a little hard to find in some areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't believe my eyes. It was sooo good. Very different flavor profile than the current WT. Sweeter and fuller on the palate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a buddy back in my underage days, early 90s, that drank WT101 exclusively and most of the time without a glass. I would have a swig and it would be I'll I could do to get it down. I was struggling to enjoy beer at that point. I thought of it as rotgut for years afterwards. At this rate if I make it to my 60's I'll probably be drinking and loving turpentine or jet fuel.

I'm curious what people think of each of these batches or if there are batches that stand out more than others. I might do a little googling. Thanks gain.
