Clueby Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Happy Anniversary, Joe. Grabbed the ER for a toast! Mrs. Clueby and I will (only?) hit 27 years in a couple weeks. I will officially then be married longer than single in my lifetime. Spent the evening cutting grass at my daughter's so I'm soaking my tired bones in the hot tub with the pour(s). Her yard is almost all hill. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, enjoying a couple of pours of KCSB while watching Last Dance. Like you, I got in a run yesterday and finished up episode 10 of Last Dance last night while enjoying some BT. Hope you enjoy the show and bourbon as much as I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTStagg Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Was going to go snook fishing from the kayak until about midnight, but the lightning doesn't look like it will let up, so I will have to hunker down with the wife and a pour of ECBP A120. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCWoody Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I’m probably going to finish this bottle tonight. I have really enjoyed this bourbon and I will buy another, if I see one. Everyone have a great memorial day weekend. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsfan1311 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Every once in a while, I get an itch, for pure, oily, corn goodness, and this one always scratches that itch. Good, cheap and delicious. Most of my bourbon friends cringe in horror, and shake their heads in disbelief, when I break it out. I don't care, you like what you like,and I really like Mellow Corn. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're really nice and solid; great for old fashioneds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping with the theme, I had a wee pour of CYPB (my 8 year anniversary bottle) and am now killing off a WSR store pick. It’s a good night. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richdel Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) Feel like I am getting the Saturday Happy Hour started. My son, who is home from NYC and staying with us until he can return, decided he would partake in a bourbon mixed drink with the wifey and I. I decided to make Cherry Manhattans. Using a standard 100 proof FR single barrel, with Cocchi vermouth, Cherry Bitters, and a teaspoon of maraschino cherry syrup. Just the right drink to whet the appetite before the grilled chicken get done. Happy Memorial Day weekend to all of you.

BigSkyDrams Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Even though I claim to have experienced some level of bourbon zen, I’m ashamed to say tonight was my first ever evening drinking EWBIB. Gotta say it’s pretty fantastic for $18. Nothing complex or challenging, but quality and quaffable, which is kind of what I was going for tonight. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I haven't had KCSB in a long time. It's basically been empty shelf space in stores. I found some today, just got the wax off. No barrel information, but taste is the classic KC profile. Tiny sips will be rewarded. Shouldn't hurry with high proof, but I already knew that.

Richnimrod Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I had the nice 'problem' of deciding among the several sample bottles sent to me for my recent birthday by my Baby Boy, Gary. I went with a couple I haven't previously tried: Barrell Bourbon Batch 23, and Blood Oath Pact 6. Even though the BO6 was lower ABV by about 4%, it came off as 'hot' to me, though the profile was decent, and fit into my usual preference for well-aged Bourbons, and it had a very nice finish. I liked it in spite of the 'burn'. The BB23 is also a long aged Bourbon, and drank easy for a 108-proofer; but it came with a kind of resinous (fresh-cut cedar-y?) note that I couldn't entirely get around. That note was obvious fro mid-palate through the finish. I still enjoyed 'em both; but, I doubt I'd pay the asking price for either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwoFingers Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Starting earlier than usual today with Baker's. Nice profile and at a good proof. Beam can make some good stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
