    Quoted from dasvis:

    Evan Williams is my regular brand. A good every day affordable whiskey.

    Once many moons ago I was riding round the back roads with Tommy Williams listening to Hank Williams while we drank Evan Williams. Good times

    Quoted from Mudflaps:

    Went to get a bottle of Midleton today until I saw the price. $300, yikes! I picked up a Black Barrel Jameson instead. [quoted image]

    8 bottles of Midleton or 1 Ghostbusters topper. Easy choice for me.

    Yeah tonight is bottoms up (up, up)
    Get 'em up
    Tonight is bottoms up (up, up)
    Get 'em up

    #105 3 years ago

    As Brantley Gilbert sings,
    Tonight is bottoms up
    Throw it on down
    Rock this quiet little country town.
    Tonight is bottoms up.

    Quoted from Jackontherocks:

    How is that one and the color, wanted to try of course

    I purchased it for a gift and only had one shot that I sipped before I started on my Apple Pie. I did like it, a slight sweet taste and a hint of burned sugar and not a lot of deep wooden notes in it. My wife doesn't drink whiskey and had a shot too. She said it was smooth. Plus after I did my shot I said that I'll be getting myself a bottle on my next visit to ABC store.

    #140 3 years ago

    For a late night Saturday or early Sunday are any of those bottles open?

    Quoted from EJS:

    Also today the stash grew by one bottle as seen on the left. Some are off topic to this thread but hopefully worthy of being included.

    I got this so the family (21 & older) can do a shot in memory of granny's birthday. She was born in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee in 1926.

    Quoted from ATLPinGuy:

    I need to post pictures... picked up a Pikesville Rye to kickoff the weekend. Gets great reviews so I am looking forward to trying (I normally do not like ryes).
    As I mentioned previously I love, love, love the Makers cask strength. I hope you enjoy it! Cheers!

    I've just started get out my comfort zone and trying new to me whisky & whiskey. Now on list for next week, Pikesville Rye & Maker's Mark 46 & Jim Beam Devils Cut. No I'm not drinking alone. I like to share.

    Good weekend no doubt.
    I'll be posting new Whiskey tomorrow.

    Quoted from Mudflaps:

    Single barrel Jack from 2006. It’s probably vinegar by now, but I’m saving it for a special occasion. [quoted image]

    If you wait to long someone else will be toasting to you, with your bottle.
    Live for today. Cheers

    Quoted from RonSS:

    Tried some New Riff Single Barrel last night. Started off with a Manhattan...either I'm not making it right or this is a waste of alcohol! Probably the former.
    Had a glass on the rocks later, seemed smooth enough. I'll need another test soon to be certain.
    [quoted image]

    I see Proper Twelve did a photo bomb.

    #239 3 years ago

    Someone I know had a hard test and passed. To show them that I knew they were a fighter I'll do a shot when we do a face time shortly. When they get home next week I'll pick out a top shelf for our weekend get together.

    Quoted from Daditude:

    I cant believe how difficult it is to find blantons or eagle rare these days. I havent seen blantons on a shelf anywhere in about 2 years and no eagle rare for about a year.

    I did find both using Va. ABC website, eagle rare 47 miles away (2 bottles) and blantons 74 miles away
    (1 bottle). If I didn't have so much to do today, road trip!

    #247 3 years ago
    Quoted from guitarded:

    Can't find Blanton's anywhere near me. They even put limits on the bottles bars can buy up here...fortunately, Eagle Rare makes an appearance every few months.

    Limits here too. 1 bottle per customer a day for both Eagle Rare and Blanton's and other's as well.

    Quoted from parsonsaj:

    Thank you Daditude for the implicit recommendation! Went to the local liquor store today to get the double oaked and look what else I found! Haven’t seen Weller available on the shelf in a long time!
    The double oaked IS amazing....[quoted image]

    To get Weller where I live. Copy and Paste from website: "This product will be distributed via lottery." I'm guessing that's how rare it is here.

    No night caps for me this weekend. Working to many hours. I did pick up a couple that I have yet to try. I'll be ready for the next weekend.

    Quoted from KongDonkey:Thank you Spiderpin ! Just wanted to give a shout-out to a great pinsider and seller. Picked up a super clean WPT from him today and he was a stand up guy. Having some makers mark and pinball is the best way to finish off a night!
    [quoted image]

    Enjoy the game KongDonkey and have a shot for me.
    And I did offer y'all a shot while you were here. Haha

    Quoted from Bax1:

    so question for ya fellas. I have an opportunity to get bookers for 99.99. how is it and is it worth it? This would be the most I have spent for a bottle.

    I myself have not tried it. But it's on my list when it, if it shows up at a store near me. But any bottle I buy for $99.99 I have and will drink if I like it or not. I've just started buying Whiskey / Whisky that I've never tried. With that said I'll drink to that!

    #463 2 years ago
    Quoted from Jackontherocks:

    Ok you have the 129 proof but now need to find new batch 133 proof, zoom in on past pic

    Dang I got the cheep stuff. I'll try harder next time. There were only 10 bottle in a fifty mile radius and I got two bottles the closest to me (20 miles). I'm on a mission now.

    Well I went from this to this. Only after no one wanted or could use China Hutch from my Mother-in-law who pass away in 2018. Just didn't want to see it get donated, yet. Now when they see it they'll be like, why didn't I think of that. I'll be thinking "You don't have a collection, I do". A toast to my Mother-in-law, Cheers

    I too though Three hours was a lot and question myself. But two people got there 2 hours before the store closed the night before to get a bottle of George T Staggs. 1 bottle per person. To that I said no way I'll drink whats on the shelf when I get there.

    Quoted from rod90:

    I have taken a liking to Jim Beam honey. The grocery store ran low and the switched to plastic bottles. They ran out of that and have not replenished. I have tried the orange and the apple, and they both are terrible. A local liquor store has the plastic bottles on clearance. Having a high ball of that on the rocks is so nice. What is with finding something that you like, and they discontinue it?

    Must be just your state, Va. Has a case in almost every store. Sounds like you need to do a Road Trip.

    #603 1 year ago
    Quoted from rod90:

    Plastic bottles or glass? The grocery store was out and then the plastic bottles showed up. And now they are out of both.

    Glass is what I have. I just was at ABC store for a limited release 3 hours ago. Will see if they have glass or plastic tomorrow when I go back to get another release.

    The last bottle of Blanton's I purchased, The only reason I got it was because they were out of what I was looking for. Then the cashier said we have 1 bottle of Blanton's left, I said ok I'll take it as if it was a burden. Took it home and put it in the closet. Price in Va. $59.99 I believe
