I think somebody put it perfectly here. Garrison Bros is like drinking the liquid out of a can of corn.

I don't care for their standard release that much, but the Cowboy is enjoyable. Different for sure. My bottle didn't last long.
I don't remember anyone discussing TX Bourbon much. Anyone pick up a bottle when it was released and any opinions on it?

Picked up a Whitmeyer's SB the other day. No,clue on age, but pleasantly surprised. Not the best out there, but definitely a drinker.
Not good.. Too young at 5 years. Check back in 3-6 years. Maybe.cjaetzold said:

Raise your budget by $50, and buy the Stagg. Leave the rest.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
Also, I'm guessing the case of Weller 12 is $60/ per, which is a ripoff. If it's $60 for the case, that's a steal, and you should buy that too, and sell them at retail to your friend on Texags for a nice little profit.
Did you buy the white label and white wax from the distillery or the blue label from the store?schmellba99 said:

The blue label they distribute is juice from Kentucky that's aged in their barrels, and I'm not particicularly a fan.
Their in house juice single barrel, on the other hand, is hands down my favorite Texas bourbon. I know that's not saying much, but I really enjoy it. Can only get it from their distillery off 249.
Yep. For $400 you should buy the Stagg. Was it last year's release of GTS? I haven't had it yet but the other GTS I've had is some amazing juice. Last year's WLW would be a close second.John Francis Donaghy said:

I read 4 years.
You are correct, Garrison's is horrible. I've bought a few bottles over the years, hoping that at some point they will turn a corner, and make it atleast enjoyable. But they're not there yet. It's amazing how many people are fooled into thinking Garrison's is good. When people that are fairly new to bourbon tell me they like Garrison's, I pull out the bottle and have them try it next to something like Blanton's or Kentucky Spirit. I respect the way Garrison's is made, and I want to like it, but I just can't. I'd take Ranger Creek .36 over GB any day, but I'd take a Four Roses Small Batch over either one, at less than half the price.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
I tried this HM Temptress Single Malt Whiskey. Very interesting stuff.
I was told it is distilled from Lakewood Temptress Beer.

16 GTS is one of the best releases of the last few years next to 14. Still can't touch anything from 07-10
16 WLW is the finest bourbon I've ever had.

Blue label. Like I said, not the best out there, but a decent drink.
Bout to throw these in the bag for some pool-side July 4th sippin
I've loaded up some EC and ER for my road trip. FIgure I won't be too pizzed if someone decides to add Coke to them. Maybe I should just take some Maker's...
"I did nothing. I did absolutely nothing, and it was everything that I thought it could be."
At the Twin in Cedar Park (1431 and Parmer), I just picked up:
* Bulleit Barrel Strength - $52.99
* Four Roses Single Barrel OBSQ - $62.99
Several bottle left on the shelf. First I've seen of either of these up this way...

DFW guys: Highland Village Whole Foods has Founders KBS on tap tonight.
Chris's Liquor on South Lamar on Austin has 1 more biggie of W12 in the back. I think it's $60.
They also have Elmer, but at $90.
4R OBSQ is fantastic stuff.
That Bulleit Barrel Proof was supremely disappointing. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing special about it. Barrel proof blandness.

Picked up an EHT Barrel proof today. Anyone tried?

I thought it was a a little underwhelming.
One of my favorites. Basically BP Eagle Rare.
Good stuff. It's a purchase when run across.
Oh yeaaaaaaaaaa!

Very nice... been looking for that one for a while.
If anyone's looking for Forged Oak or Rhetoric 23, it can be had at Baybrook Total Wine, FWIW
