Luna56 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I brought a bottle of FRSB back from Knoxville last week that was bottled for McScrooge's in Knoxville. Haven't opened it yet, but the one I shared with friends when I was there was superlative. Made me want to buy my own barrel and just ladle from it from time to time.Cheers!

cowdery Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 You know, folks, we need to something about our abbreviations for Four Roses since both Single Barrel and Small Batch abbreviate as FRSB. How about FR1B for single barrel, leaving FRSB for Small Batch?I assume the McScrooge's custom bottling, like the one for Party Source, was Single Barrel.

luv2hunt Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Not to be a nagging woman, but we have other bourbons that have a single barrel that use the SB nomenclature that will make it very confusing. For example, isn't EWSB....Evan Williams Single Barrel? Now we gotta change to EW1B? How about FRSB--4 roses single barrel and FRSmB--4 roses small batch Keep the SB for all single barrels.....and the SmB for all small batches. Just trying to be difficult...... :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I do agree with the idea.I'm with Dawn and Christian on this, as I too have already been using FRSmB, in chat anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna56 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Yeah, SmB makes a whole lotta sense. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdery Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 I think we should use both FR1B and FRSmB, since FRSB is inherently ambiguous, even if we agree on what it means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigthom Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Or we could just practice our typing skills and spell it out.Four Roses Single Barrel. Four Roses Single Barrel 40th Anniversary. Four Roses Small Batch. Four Roses Yellow Label. William Larue Weller. Old Fitzgerald. OK, that was one wasn't as easy for this four fingered typist.
