marshall9779 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Got this lovely bottle in today. Private group barrel pick that I can't wait to break into. When it finally shipped, the group received 12 CASES less than what was estimated. Was hoping to get 3 bottles, only got 1, which I am lucky to have. Wow, big underestimation. Short barrel.

parksmart Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Downside of living in SF Bay Area is any Weller products above the SR level are just about impossible to find at the MSRP levels that folks in the South and Midwest can find. While this one was noticeably more than MSRP, it was well below what this would sell for in a heartbeat on the online secondary market. Shall soon be in the bunker of one @fosmith........... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a dozen years or more since I've seen W12 on a shelf at any price. I'm grateful to you, my friend, for the opportunity to finally own (and drink) a bottle.

Tony Santana Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Didn't purchase, but I acquired some nice bottles via trade today. Bakers 13, 4R SmB LE, ETL 100th and this year's OFBB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably wouldn’t have grabbed a couple of these under normal circumstances, but I was in Orlando & you spend money when you’re in Orlando. I’m curious to try this Larceny store pick. I’ve seen a couple different ones on social media, but never had come across one. On 1/6/2020 at 1:43 PM, JSpartan said: I’m a big fan of the Larceny store picks if you get them at a good price. I picked up a Binny’s pick (6.5 year old wheater) for $20. Great value IMO and the flavor is much better than the standard Larceny offering. I really like the Larceny store pick I have. Much better than the standard one. I have yet to compare it SBS to my various RY10SiB's but that's what it reminds me of, albeit younger and obviously lower proof so not as creamy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be repeating myself here, but it’s got a little bit of a tannic finish, but it’s not anything I can’t get over or that ruins it for me. It doesn’t taste like WLW or MM Cask Strength either. Pretty unique profile that doesn’t drink near as hot as it’s proof says. I’m going to add a drop or two of water to it next time just to see how it changes it, but it really doesn’t need it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercharger Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Had one of these in November. They still have some on the shelf. Fantastic MGP. May end up going back for more...but feels a bit overboard. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMartin42 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Love Binny’s coupons. Grabbed a Rare Breed and a Maker’s Mark Cask Strength at $42 and $37 respectively with a $15 off coupon. Pretty happy to get those two bottles for $64 plus tax. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
