Alright alright. We don't need to bring religion and politics into this forum.


Does anyone play those March Madness Bourbon Brackets? Is there any bars in Austin doing this? Curious on how they work, I see y'all posting about it sometimes.

right? I'd be standing around getting hammered lol. Of course, I did give up all alcohol for Lent even though I'm not Catholic i enjoy the tolerance break. Everything tastes better when it's over.

I gave up alcohol for lent as well.

I will be sinning Friday evening at the barrel pick though. Bad timing but, that will be the only time. Lord forgive me.

A rare moment in time where Weller 12 is being consumed instead of held hostage.

Love it

For $4 a shot, it will get devoured. My wife was the one who pointed it out to me. She saw it on houston bourbon fb group. We were initially on the east club level and looked for it but didn't have it. So we walked around to west club. She appreciates my new found love for bourbon

In more fake bourbon news

NYC wine store fined $100K for fake bourbon sales but hasn't fired anybody over scandal

Acker Merrall Condit a 203-year-old booze store on the Upper West Side that bills itself as the "oldest and most respected wine shop in America" agreed to shell out the maximum penalty to state regulators after a probe uncovered sloppy business practices surrounding the sale of fake bottles of Colonel E.H. Taylor Four Grain bourbon at $1,000 each, public records show.

The New York State Liquor Authority commissioners' monthly meeting on Feb. 1, revealed fresh details about the mess first reported in an Inside Edition expose in 2021 including the fact that store employees bought the fake hooch from a private collector despite telltale signs that it wasn't authentic.

...

That was after SLA Commissioner Vincent Bradley asked incredulously whether the employees who bought the fake bourbon were still working at the West 72nd St. retailer.

"There was clear fraud here or at least a large potential for fraud," Bradley told Acker's attorneys at the hearing, a video recording of which was viewed by The Post.

Store employees "were going out with their own money, buying from private collections and reselling it to the liquor store, but not telling the liquor store what they paid for it," Bradley added.

I dont recall hearing about this story before. Gald those that were ripped off got refunded in the end but i fear these stories are jsut going to get more commom as there is just too much money to be made these days.

Edit - looking it up the wine house is the same one from the netflix documentary Sour Grapes. How the **** are they still allowed to be in business and what fool would buy from them?

Happy 126th anniversary of the Bottled-In-Bond act, everyone.

I hope you are all able to enjoy a glass of your favorite 100 proof, 4+ year old, distilled in the same season at the same distiller, spirit.

jealous. I don't know what it is but finding any of the EHT products is a pain in the ass here. Blanton's, Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare and Wellers all easy enough to acquire but not EHT.

Hell i've won the lottery for BTAC more often in the last 2 years than i have found an EHT small batch much less any of the other releases.

Haha yeah it's weird. Specs had cases of it at the big bourbon drop. So now I know why I never find it. I grabbed lunch at delta blues today and they have pours of it for $25. Funny cause that's the same price for weller full proof, Blantons, eht single barrel.
