RT Fan Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Clearing out the cabinet as for me, bourbon season is coming to a close. I know, heresy for some of you but i don’t drink a lot of whiskey once the temps get north of 70. Good thing it only hit 60 today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedelstaedt Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I found this bottle, on a hot Oklahoma August day, while on a dusty hunt, many years ago in OKC. This bottle proves, a great whiskey doesn’t require to be high in proof. In fact, lower proofing exposes a whiskey’s insufficiencies. This whiskey was well crafted by Mr. Parker Beam. I will miss this exceptional bourbon. I’m glad I have the memory of finding this bottle in a tiny store, owned & operated by a mom and her daughter. True Americana. Cheers. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, but while working in OKC from 2010 into 2014 I came across a number of EWSB from 1999 through 2002, of which I still have 6 or 7.

smokinjoe Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 This has been a very nice bottle of whiskey. Everything I look for in the Beam profile, plus the healthy proof. I’m pretty sure I can count on one hand how many Booker’s I’ve purchased over the years, but my next bottle will come in a much shorter time than any two of the preceding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1gcountry Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I killed off the apple brandy with a jack rose. I tried lime juice instead of lemon and I decided the lemon is better. The glenrothes bottle actually had the last of my handle of old Fitz BIB that a friend picked up for me as a housewarming gift right before COVID. RIP Tom.

fishnbowljoe Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Forget pic. A HH 7 BIB was deposited in the big brown bin. A bottle of MM was also emptied, but it was refilled from a handle in the cabinet. Said handle might be gone in the near future. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drink no beer as the fall cuts in. Fall in the air brings in the brown liquor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCWoody Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 This is a very limited bottle but it was amazing. Wish I had a dozen of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) Recent empties. I would buy the two on the right again, but not the one on the left. I was quite disappointed in the standard Frey Ranch bourbon after being very impressed with a private barrel pick shared with me by a generous fellow SBer. Just goes to show the potential difference between a hand-picked single barrel and a generally-produced small batch product. I'm a fan of the Sagamore BiB Rye and the New Riff SiB bourbon. Will buy both of those again (and have already). Edited May 11 by Kepler 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I know why I didn’t find more of those older EWSiB, back then. I’m glad they found a good home with you. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick_OKC Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Finished off one that I had not touched in a while, and boy was it good to the last drop. A Sarah bottle to boot. Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
