Skinsfan1311 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Elijah Craig Barrel Proof $59.99 at a LS in Myrtle Beach. I have a couple of bottle already. I just saw the same bottles, here in MD, for $99.99. Yes, I regret it....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted March 16, 2019 Author Share Posted March 16, 2019 I saw a new one for around these parts. Old Elk Blended Straight Bourbon. Yeah, an easy pass. Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_fuelfiveo Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I passed on a GTS @ $750 and Stagg Jr. for $150 in a local store today. They also had a shelf full of baby Sazz for $75 each. Everything else was priced normally but these really stood out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCWoody Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Passed on these 2 today. Great price I just didn’t enjoy them enough to pick up more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, an easy pass. Biba! Joe I just opened mine. Seems I have a “second edition”. They were originally NAS, mine is “three or more”, and the latest is “four of more”. I liked it. Definitely smooth, and a tad sweet - probably the high barley and near-lack of Rye. I’d buy another bottle once they start using just their distillate.

That’s a great price for the Repeal Batch. If nothing else it’s get for mixing with your non enthusiast friends. For the same price as white label you can tell them they are special since you opened a “Limited Edition” just for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d totally do the JBRB for that price.. I haven’t tried it, BUT VA Gentleman, Club 400, and Kentucky Tavern etc go for at least or more than that here..

Not your typical craft out fit. I’d rec’d a brief 20 minute interview Metze did w/ the dads drinking bourbon crew. He goes into detail on MGP warehouses and how that impacts LDI/MGP juice. Metze helped lay down some of the best bourbon of this young century for what I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spade Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Passed on ECBP for $70. I think that's a fair price but I already have a few unopened. That's the second or third time I've passed on in ECBP in the last year or so. I wouldn't say it's readily available at this point, but it definitely a bit easier to find than in years past (at least around here). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 Out and about yesterday. Passed on WLW @ $699.00 and GTS @ $399.00. I even left behind some Weller SR @ $39.99. Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I read here, the more I'm starting to regret it. I agree, that it seems easier to find now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Occasionally, I'll see it for $60 and jump on it. Almost always one per customer, though, at that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshall9779 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 The Stagg Jr. pricing has gotten out of hand. Here in MD, I saw some for $99.00 at a local store on Saturday. Pass. Montgomery County stores sell at retail for $50 if you make it though and can find. Saw some about a month back but had to pass as I had already been buying too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDanner Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 CEHT Small Batch. I have a couple bottles in reserve already, and it is easier to get in NC than the Buffalo Trace I didn't pass on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlutz Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 A local store has their twice a year deep discount sale in March. I passed on FR 130th at $335 marked down from $499. Also, there were two bottles of ECBP on the shelf @ $44. I bought one and passed on one. I have a good number in the bunker but couldn’t pass on that price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither one is worth more than $50-$60. AAMOF, I spent $60 on Batch 11 last week and wish I had my money back. Very ordinary. And Blanton's? Overrated...

Yeah, I considered walking out without buying anything but was in need of everyday bourbon (EWBIB). It was priced reasonably and it was the last package store before reaching my beer/wine only home county. Not one of my usual go to stores and don't really remember why I was over that way. Unlikely that I'll be in there again unless I need another good laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMartin42 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 A119 in the North, B518 in the South. A119 $65-69, B518 @ $60And here in Springfield I have no idea which batch is sitting there at Friar Tuck because I saw the $99.99 tag and walked away. Only I’ve ever seen here though.
