CorvallisCracker Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Was down at my favorite liquor store, in Eugene. There was a single bottle of PVW 15 on the shelf, which I grabbed. Learned they'd received six about three weeks ago, and this was the last. Apparently there are some serious bourbon drinkers in Eugene.They were also down to two bottles each of OF BB (1994/2007) and Forty Creek Three Grain, so I grabbed one each of those.Drinking the Birthday Bourbon right now. Never had this before (any release). Good juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilsFan Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Bought another bottle of ETL, this time for my son-in-law's birthday. He's been drinking WR & KC recently, so it will be something new for him to try.-Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBOmarc Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Weller 12 and WTRR Rye. Looking forward to the Turkey, took me a while to find it. Even the BevMo's in the area were just now getting it in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozilla Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Christian,Is there a bottle date? I have always thought the the Gov. warning started in 1989...this appears to be pre 1987, with the upc and Bib designations.Still a really sweet pick up. Wish I had seen 'er. Can't wait for the taste report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an "83" on the bottom of the bottle Jeff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am being very patient about seeing one in person....I hope it happens someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarHeelTaster Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I purchased OC Classic 90. Haven't tried it before and understand BT is stopping production. More expensive than I would have thought at about $18. Also some Weller Special Reserve, OGD 114 and some Old Overholt (though obviously not bourbon).

fishnbowljoe Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Found out that one of my two favorite liquor stores was going out of business. Hurried over after work and managed to pick up four bottles of ERSB 10/90 for $18.89 each, a bottle of WTRB for $24.49 and a bottle of RR 90 for $18.49. I also got eight wine/bourbon glasses for a dollar each. I made out like a bandit. Saved over $50.00. I pretty much wiped out all the bourbon they had left except for one more bottle of RR 90 and a whole bunch of JB Black. Wish I would have found out three weeks ago. They were the only store around here that had Lot B. Still, I'm pretty happy. Got some good stuff for myself and some that I can bring with me to the KBF. Gazebo here I come!

Dr. François Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I finally found a 1.75 l bottle of EC12. Bought that sucker without much hesitation. EC12 is still one of the few whiskeys that is cheaper in Michigan than elsewhere.I also picked up a 1.75 l of Weller SR in Kentucky. I swear, between these two bourbons, I could be a happy, happy guy for a really long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
