MSB Posted Thursday at 11:21 PM Author Share Posted Thursday at 11:21 PM Pickd up these today. Haven't had the OE 7yr for several yrs since the price went from 40ish$ to almost 80$. Opened it up at the LQ store and shared with the owner and his beer rep. We both were really pleased with it, the beer rep, I think he is more of a beer guy, but he drank it. As for the Lux Row Dbl SiB Four Grain, the LQ store owner said he like it at 80$. So at 49.99$ the price was right for picking one up and giving it a spin myself. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been wanting the 8yr myself but only found 1, well 3 all at the same store, at 95$. I'll wait until I can get it closer to MSRP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinsfan1311 Posted yesterday at 07:27 PM Share Posted yesterday at 07:27 PM Been looking for these and finally found a couple. I think MSRP is $59.99. I paid $64.00, so my cheap-ass is only slightly chafed. I'd just assume that they ditch the cute sack, and charge less. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted yesterday at 09:12 PM Share Posted yesterday at 09:12 PM I haven’t been much of a buyer of this since the rebranding. Maybe, 2 bottles, total? Perhaps my disinterest has been due to it’s higher price over the 6 year that was mostly $12 when I was buying regularly. Perhaps, I have a good bunker full of those 6 years. Perhaps, it was a GBS sponsored SBS between old and new, where at that time there was not much distinguishing the two, and the group pretty much had them equal in preferences. Perhaps, other HH products have been catching my fancy. Whatever it has been, I felt that today would be the day to pick one up. And, do I did. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davesnothere Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago (edited) Today was our quarterly state ABC drop. The last time I got a Weller 107 about a year ago, it was $40ish. Today it was $58.99. The old Fitz was $59.99. Today was a work in the garden beer day so I'll try the old Fitz tomorrow. Edited 20 hours ago by Davesnothere 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my neck of the woods, they are more excited about scoring a bottle that comes with the green velvet bag, than what it tastes like. Evidently not all bottles come with the bag (only so many bags are included in a case lot), so it has become a sport amongst the taters to chase the velvet bag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost embarrassing to buy whiskey with those little bags or boxes. I tried a couple pours last night. It's pretty damn good. Not $64.00 good, but good. I prefer the HH BiB, both the 6 & 7 year versions, over this. I'll revisit this one later. That said, I won't be running out to replace them when they're gone, unless they come to their senses and drop the price. We all know that ain't gonna happen!

We need to get them hooked on Crown Royal, they might lose their minds...all those different colors! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsfan1311 Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Gotta keep this one on the bar. It's one of my favorite Beam expressions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Me, too. Luckily, I travel to our company’s plant in South Carolina, so I can pick it up there. Never seen it here, in Georgia. Its heavy, juicy, prototypical, Beam notes remind me of the Beam Bonded from several years back. BB still remains one of my favorite all-time Beam expressions. This is right there with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around here, the stores have to keep the flavored CR locked up in the glass cabinet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
