I'm very sorry. hopefully the expansion-yeilding barrels will be beefing up the base stock here soon. on a side note I saw on a FB bourbon group that there is issues with the distilleries getting glass bottles, caps/corks, and labels. Add those supply chain issues with shipping issues and this is leading to limited amounts of product getting sent out of the distilleries. One comment was from a liquor store owner that said his distributor told him all things BT related were going to be in limited supply, and some places are getting JB white label in plastic bottles instead of glass bottles for the time being.

This is correct. My local has a pick of Stagg Jr. that was supposed to be in back in December but they are still waiting on glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A semi-local store has also been waiting on a barrel pick that they were hoping would arrive before Xmas. Also and FWIW, I received an email from the folks at BT concerning their pick for our BT group. “Due to supply chain issues that we are managing through; we are still waiting for glass bottles for this whiskey.” They also said it would more than likely be early spring before the bottles would be ready. I have a crap ton of empty bottles of various BT products in my basement. I wonder what would happen if I filled up the back of my Seltos and took them down to BT. Hey, ya’ never know. Biba!

I've seen it, and passed, but I confess to great curiosity given that the pedigree - 15-year old Barton - is so good.

elmossle Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Been at work most of the week cleaning up from last weekend's 2 feet snow dump, while also preparing for "Landon's" ice skating rink tonight and tomorrow at work. However, did take a few minutes on my way home this evening to pickup a case of ECBP A122. And yes, there was still plenty on the shelf for others, but it is very good and tasty. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would gladly drive down to Kentucky for that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the 1800s, before we had the modern machinery to mass produce bottles, that's exactly what people did - save and refill bottles. A person would walk into a general store or saloon with an empty bottle. The proprietor would fill it from a barrel. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've even seen at least one western, maybe a couple where the bartender was called on the sh!+ show he was serving out of his barrel. Must be where the term "work hard, play hard" was coined. Those guys probably overlooked more bad pours than we are willing to!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can bring a ‘Growler” to my local beer distributor and have it filled with tap beer, so in a sense what was old is new again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kepler Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) I picked up a couple of staples to fortify the bunker because they were the right price. Rare Breed at 39.99 and Baker's 7 year, the last one they had at 41.99. Solid. Edited February 6, 2022 by Kepler 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
