It's a jackstand fashioned like a BTAC bottle that's holding up the foundation of the house. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I'm a new member to the forum and this is my first time commenting/posting (so be gentle please), and I'm still learning how everything works. I live in AZ and know these have been "out there" for a full week now in my little podunk town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTAC is a highly allocated and limited release and I would be amazed if they sit anywhere for any length of time, unless priced exceptionally high. However, if they are on shelves in your area I suggest you buy every one you can assuming they are at MSRP. Hope I am incorrect and please let us know! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, sorry I didn't mean to suggest they were sitting on shelves, but rather that in southern Arizona they have already been distributed to both on and off-premises establishments. I guess I was just surprised that my area would be amongst the first to get them, I would have thought we would be amongst the last. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledInBond Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I picked up a Henry McKenna and a 1792 Sweet Wheat. I don’t have that much real interest I. The Sweet Wheat but it was pretty cheap so why not? The McKenna is the first I’ve bought in a while, as people have jacked up the price on it pretty universally now and I don’t feel any need to pay way more than I used to for it. This one was $33.99 and I thought that was at least somewhat acceptable, but it really wasn’t long ago I could buy as much as I wanted for $27.98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most wholesale distributors probably have them in their warehouses, but it takes them awhile to determine who’s going to get what and how many they are going to get. Retail stores in my area didn’t get any last year until early December. So, Arizona is apparently more blessed than you thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking for WLW bottles for years now around here and it's impossible. I remember years ago when I used to seem sitting on shelves for months and months, and I'd fret over whether or not I should buy it. Dang!!!! At any rate, very nice find. Enjoy!

tsangster Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Fighting Cock 103. Hard enough to find 750ml around here but ran across a backwoods place that had 4 1.75L bottles - don't know that I've ever seen family size in wild. Almost bought them all but only came home with one. Still may go back and get a couple more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schultz24 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Found a sale on Evan Williams BiB at my local LS.....$25 OTD for a 1.75L. Seemed like a pretty good deal since I just paid $18 for 1L and thought that was decent for what it is. Glad I picked 1 up. On another note, they also had a whole row of 1792 Sweet Wheat yesterday for $33/btl........all gone today. Didn’t think it was really that great....
