Are they allowed to do that, now? I thought I remembered that State Law prohibited that. Of course, that goes back some years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not something allocated or limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurgalunas Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 In CO and found a shelf full of WTKS PS from 2016. Grabbed a couple, will be back in a month if it turns out to be great, so can pick up more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clueby Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I saw some non PS WTKS in the old bottle from a 2017 bottling today for $50 but passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a giant Pez dispenser that dispenses full packs of Pez and plays the Star Wars theme when you tip it's head back, he's buddies with the Big Chuck Brown (wearing a Mets hat) over to the left. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too cool.. I noticed Big Charles there also. I was thinking that’s either the largest Pez dispenser I’d ever seen or those Dickel bottles were minis.

Not any time soon, but looking forward to it, I am very much in the pro-Dickel camp and wasn't smart enough to stockpile 14 year old store picks back when they were around so if it gets close to that territory I'll be more than happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this works for 24 hours, I’ll go back and get a BT, Maker’s, Rittenhouse, Kentucky Spirit, Old Forester, Dickel, and Daniel’s tomorrow. I feel I owe it to them...

Bob_Loblaw Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) Picked these up yesterday. The Michters was more than the other two combined so it’s got some lofty expectations. Excited to try that vs the last few pours of the BP Rye I have. I know Michters has been viewed negatively for Not being very forthcoming information wise, but do not really know details. Can anyone fill me in? Edited July 13, 2019 by Bob_Loblaw Forgot picture! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
