If you’re an old fashion fan, you have no idea what you’re missing if you haven’t had one made with the AP Cask! If you have, you know exactly what I’m talking about

I believe that I was first to do it. Made 6 of them in one night with my brother-in-law visiting. You all thought I was crazy. Well... now look at you!

But I am crazy.

We killed a bottle in no time at the Philly meet up making these. I get the same reaction each time someone new tries one...

There is a store by me that had Alberta for $41 a bottle. It wasn't my thing, so I passed on it. If anyone local to me wants one or 2, let me know and I can pick it up. @Highli99 @Cliff

Yes, please!

 

[johnnycnote]

Thought I had a beat on some JDBP rye and a few Knob Creek cask strength ryes, struck out on those but it wasn't a completely wasted trip

Nice Grabs! That Larceny is fantastic and I'm really enjoying the OF1924. What did it run you? I paid a little over MSRP at $129

 

[TeddyFSB]

Big fan of Clynelish (sepcially the one od That Boutique Company).
Lately, I found Waterford was doing something really special.
A shame that the packaging looks like perfume...

$120 plus tax. And probably $10 in gas for the hour fifteenth round trip lol

Next time I'm over that way, I'll take a look. If they have it, I'll buy it up and offer it you guys

Add me to the list. At $40 I will gladly stock a ton of AP

 

[krafticus]

This one, right????

 

[krafticus]

I may have bought all of the ones on the shelf…….

Make sure they don’t have any more in the back

I’m sure they do. Apparently, it was just introduced in MD, so it’s cheap to start….

It's so awesome when this happens. I had a local a few years back that had the Peerless BS rye for like $30 a bottle, the owner seemed happy that I cleared out his stock lol.

 

[Saoliver]

That's half the price of my Costco, when they had it for $65!

Mark will go back tomorrow and it'll be $100.97 and the guy at the register today will be mysteriously missing....

If you have an extra or 3. I'd love whatever you can spare. Love this rye and finished my last bottle the other month and the stores here are 100+ a bottle.

They only had 4, and my locals are getting them for now. I’ll go back later in the week to see if they have more

 

[DZPoker]

bold pick with this lineup

LOL...oh, I know. But I have to support my team!

 

[johnnycnote]

I'll be in Nashville this weekend. Anyone recommend a couple good stores that I can burbon hunt in?

 

[joepro]

Hi guys, I’m looking for an Old Forester 1924 if anyone can grab one for me. Willing to go up to $170 or so, possibly higher. Will also consider trades.

Thanks,

Joe

Totally understand. Thanks for keeping me in mind.

B3 v B6
B3 Nose - Char, Grass, Leather
Palette- pepper, proof, char, oak, long finish
B6 Nose - oak, leather, molasses, fruit
Palette - oak, vanilla, proof, long finish, dark cherry
Winner - B6
These two seemed similar but B3 has a bit of a harsh finish, both were pretty high proof

B4 v B5
B4 nose - brown sugar, cinnamon, tabacco
palette - baking spice, oak, easy sipper, good mouth feel
B5 nose - berry, caramel
palette - brown sugar, berry, easy sipper, good mouth feel
winner - B5
This was close, these were both very nice sippers, lower proof, but still viscous.

It's really good, nice oily mouthfeel makes a great sipper.

 

[gopherblue]

I couldn’t score Alberta Premium CS Rye for $29, so I had to settle for paying $50 more for an entirely different BP.

C1 v C8

C1 - Nose - clove, caramel, oak
Palette - Brown sugar, oak, caramel, pepper, long finish

C8 - nose - Cherry, proof, baking spice
palette - oak, dark fruit, good mouth feel, burnt brown sugar, long finish

Winner C8

This was pretty close but C8 left a fantastic after taste

C2 v C7

C2 - nose - brown sugar caramel, banana, proof
palette - oak, caramel, dark chocolate, long finish

C7 - Nose - Cherry, Burnt brown sugar
Palette - Nutmeg, oak, Berry, char, good mouth feel, lower proof

winner - C7

one of the few times the lower proof wins, evn at lower proof it has a oily mouth feel and has just a fantastic taste.

 

[Billy Baroo]

This might not be as much of a gimmick as I originally thought. Seems that this got pretty damn good over the last 6 months! This was a birthday gift I got from a cash game reg last August.

 

[johnnycnote]

I'm gonna need even more shelf space...

 

[Irish]

Anyone try this one? Love me the old pepper rye, never had their bourbon.
