Marekv8 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Everyone was wearing a shit-eating grin when I walked into the place, so I figured there was a big bottle out back. Rang up at $249.00. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Red is having a 20% off sale. 3 bottle requirement. We can also provide local stores of interest via PM. Most interested in what you both have to say via PM or otherwise. I appreciate the generosity. I will be staying in Carmel. Headed out in an hour from Columbus, in Carmel until Tuesday am. Very interested in SiB, stores of interest, and specific recommendations. Not expecting super secret access to rare or allocated bottles, just solid stuff. I'm looking forward to Costco and Krogers for starters. Thanks again, please let me know if, when, and how I might reciprocate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to hear your thoughts on the AE cider - I found it "odd". Not bad, but odd. I thought the MSRP was too high for the pour. Going to revisit soon and see if it opens up.

I'd say there was maybe 100 people at opening. 174 bottles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, there you go… it's like blending your wife today with your bride 30 years ago. Geez, that last part of your post really made me catch my breath! If I could have the maturity, grace, and wisdom of my wife today, blended with the...um...you know...of my bride from 37 years ago, I would likely be completely unable to handle it. But, it would be fun trying! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it does occasionally disappear for short periods only to return at a higher price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) Cheap Bastard was on the prowl this weekend. One retailer had a 30% off sale. Stocked up on standard bottles - WT, OF, FR, EC Rye, MM101, KC9. Back out today for a few unique bottles at another retailers 20% off sale. Grabbed a Woodinville Single Barrel Cask Strength and a standard 90 proof Woodinville. I was hoping for the Woodinville trifecta. However, they didn't have Woodinville Rye. I have enjoyed all of the Woodinville products I have tried which has been the standard 90 proof and the port finish. I was waiting on a sale to purchase a single barrel Cask Strength.

I used to pride myself on doing my own taxes. Several years ago, I finally gave up. I guess it helps that he is my son's boss. Win-win. He finds tax breaks and he knows my son works for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
