markandrex Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I stopped by Liquor Barn on my way home. They had a shelf full of te LL/GG at$25.88with a $300 WT coupon. Not bad. The other one I had not seen before but at 125.8 proof, why not. Cheers! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obeezy1Kaneezy Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Jeez, I’m supposed to be looking for 101 batch codes now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Jeez, I’m supposed to be looking for 101 batch codes now? Yeah where you been? I actually did the search this weekend but could only find a liter bottle. I need to kill some bottles before I buy more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postal Grunt Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Mrs PG asked me to pick up some blueberry flavored beer for her while I was out and about and a funny thing happened on my way to the cash register. A bottle of ECBP C918 found its way into my right hand. It must have been lonely for its cousin that I bought recently. Does that qualify for respecting family values? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Store pick maybe, but no longer something I would seek out anymore. Took a flyer on the Bulliet. Is there any taste difference in VOBBIB and the Crafted you have?

Double C's Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 These are my purchases from my last two trips out. With the price increases that I have seen on HM 10yr I couldn't pass up the $29.99 price. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are BIB. I was only looking at the neck label which I guess always said crafted. My bad. The new labels will not say bottled in bond. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmossle Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Held out as long as I could. It has been at least a whole week since I last made a bourbon purchase. That was broken today with two bottles of WT Rare Breed on sale. I hope to do more damage to the credit card tomorrow. Stay tuned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen that before (only been into bourbon a few months though).... It's a Rye/Bourbon blend they released two bottlings of it in 2013 and 2014 IIRC. The "Story" is an employee accidentally dumped Rye and Bourbon into the same vatting and since it tasted good they were "Forgiven". I have a bottle of each batch, they are decent but would have been better at a higher proof or lower price point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still see them on the shelf and had no idea of the story except that it was a bourbon/rye blend. Never had enough curiosity to pull the trigger because of the price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the first batch out of curiosity but bought the second on clearance, pretty sure the first pour I had of it was in a flight at the Brown Hotel in 2013 but it could have been 2014. So I might be off by a year, I suppose I could figure it out with a little Googling... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSkyDrams Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Nothing fancy, but was surprised to see a store with a bunch of JB Distiller’s Cut on the shelf, so I picked up a couple at $24 to pad out my roster. Fantastic stuff for the price IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
