Barrel_Proof Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 Dane: Is that your drum kit in the background? I figured you more likely to snare varmints than pound a snare and a tom-tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr8erdane Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 I've been playing drums since 5th grade and love to thump on things. I used to play in a band and sold my drums to buy a car when the band broke up. Always wished I had kept them. Then the neighbor in my old townhouse bought a dog that sat at the back door and howled anytime she wasn't home. I bought the drums and the dog disappeared the next day. I still play em, but I'm a bit rusty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedVette Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Rather than starting a new thread, I thought I would bring this one back to life. Last night I was at a business dinner in Richmond VA and in the restaurants bar sat a bottle of Hirsch 20 (as well as the entire small batch lineup and Rare Breed as well). I asked the barkeep the price for a shot and he had to go look it up, which is usually bad news. He came back and said that for the low low price of $28.50 I could have had a single shot of 20 year old Hirsch. I passed, settling instead for a couple shots of rare breed, did I make a mistake?

BourbonJoe Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Well, if you can afford to put gas in that vette, what's another 30 bucks. Should of got it. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburlowski Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 No, I think you made the right decision. After hearing rave reviews of the almost mythical Hirsch 20 I finally got to taste some a few months back. Maybe it was my heightened (or "hype-end")level of anticipation, but I found it very bland and uninteresting. Not nearly as good as the Hirsch 16 we had at the same tasting. Definitely not worth $28 / shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COPPERSTILL Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Hirsch 20 is bringing 49.00 a shot at the Maker's Mark Lounge in Louisville. I opted against it.John Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barturtle Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Paid 35 for Distillers Masterpiece 18 a few years back, I could consider it a waste of money because I didn't like it that much, or I could say it saved me 170 because I didn't buy a bottle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
