Bob_Loblaw Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Another Rare Breed. And a second butcher stop to pick up a brisket and hot dogs. I am ready to hunker down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First one I’ve ever seen on a shelf. I suppose, since there’s no March Madness this year to keep me entertained for the next 3 weeks, this slam dunk will have to do... Very nice Joe. FWIW, according to my source, MM no longer does slam dunks. Enjoy! Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDanner Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 A 1.75 of EWBIB (in case I have to hunker down) and an Elijah Craig Rye. First time I've seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TehRegion219 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 VOB 90, first time I've seen it. I have the 80, 84, and 100. Didn't really care for the 80, my wife snatched my 84 and drank it all..... at $14, I feel so dirty buying just one, is this what it feels like purchase fireball??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to make sure I like it enough over the regular small batch to justify the higher price. Please share your thoughts on it once you crack one of them open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me preface this by saying I'm a pretty big fan of 4R. I like the SmBS a lot. It's a complete different blend of recipes than the regular SmB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parksmart Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Not quite bourbon, and not the greatest haul of dusties. But for the price and nostalgia purposes, I couldn’t pass these up. ‘78 thru ‘81 & ‘83 bottle dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoy the 90s a lot more than I think I will when I pick one up, which is a couple times per year. There’s a certain no frills, common man, always dependable, charm to it that just makes me happy when I drink it. A solid everyday drinker. It’s existence made me pine much less as the 100 proof lost its credentials over the past few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall ever having the 80, but the 86, 90 and 100 are all decent whiskies that you should never feel dirty about buying. Like FRYL, they're not spectacular but always a good solid pour at a great price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I've said before, me likee FRSmBS - but don't pay more than MSRP ($59.99) for it. I've seen it up here (finally) for $60-70 - still drinking last year's stash from Bardstown/Lexington trip.

I wasn't a buyer. I tried it shortly after release and wasn't a fan. I may give it a shot in the future after all the chaos dies down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
