Man, don't tell me that.  My Costco(s) never have anything like that.  

My city banned the sale of liquor except for at a "party store" when liquor sales became an item a few years back.

I'm gonna break your heart now.  A friend just sent me this:

C'mon now, this is just piling on!  Any idea what the right side of the receipt shows?  Not that it matters but I can still hold out hope next time I walk into my local Costco.  Only to be disappointed once again.

Get your tissues ready.  My friend says $40.  I don't know when the receipt was from but I called that Costco and they said they had not had it in stock for a while and do not expect to get more FWIW.

Checked my local Costco today for the SiB; they said they don't have it and it looks like a deleted item (as in nobody will have it).  Anybody seeing the SiB this year? Item #14722224

I'm tasting the small batch tonight in prep for a review on my blog. I'm still on the fence about which recipe it is, but leaning toward Barton atp. FWIW, I like it a lot for the price point, but I'm a VOB fanboy.

Last year's Kirkland BIB was VERY similar to VOB 100.  I'm eagerly waiting for the SiB to come to my area.

Forgot to mention it was the Small Batch I was tasting. I haven't seen the BiB or SiB here yet, although I may have missed it. Still easier to find than VOB.🙄

They have all 3 at the new Costco in Verona WI. I just bought a bottle of BIB today and will go back for more...want to try the single barrel 120 proof too. Was going to try the Small Batch but reading some of the comments make me think the BIB is better for just a couple bucks more...I enjoy the BIB. Drinking some now...

Interesting about the SiB.  A few weeks ago I talked to Costco and the only store in the country with SiB was a brand new store in CA that had 500+ bottles.  I suspected they were from last year's release because last year they released the SB first, then the BIB 6-8 weeks later, then the SiB 6-8 weeks after that so I figured this year's SiB wasn't out yet.  Now you are seeing it an another new store.  It's interesting that the SiB is showing up at new stores.  I'll have to check today to see if this year's SiB release is out yet.

This was definitely a great buy.  Hopefully the SiB shows up soon too.

Jumped on the scale this morning.  Appropriate weight for a bourbon drinker, right?

I haven't weighed that since I was in middle school.  Good on you!

That's what I weigh right after a big fart first thing in the morning.  But, when I breathe in a little air my weight jumps up.  Scales can so cruel sometimes.

Are you saying this is a VOB mash bill as opposed to the 1792 mash bill?

I think you meant @Josh's blog, which is: sipologyblog.com. This Josh does not have a blog.

The Kirkland SiB just hit my local Costco.  Tried the neck pour and remembered that it gets much better after it opens up, so I will probably bunker a few.
