Will do. Yao at the new Specs in Pflugerville said it was his last one and he grabbed it from the back. Apparently it was leftover from the Brody Lane deal a few months ago. So was the New Riff.

It's a really good pour, another Ag on here recommended it to me. For about $50 it's definitely worth it. I hope you enjoy it!

Congratulations!! Daughters are awesome, special bond with their fathers (my son has that bond with his mom too).

Broke my 2 month streak of not buying bottles. Went to Spec's to get some nonalcoholic beer for a coworker (they don't carry it at her specs) and found these.

Well that looks like a damn good use of the birthday money.

I went to two specs today and found absolutely nothing. I'm glad some of you are having success though lol!

Yeah, it's a shame because they make some great whiskeys

Yeah, I was a fan at first then everything started tasting the same.

Also, I own about 45 hats. Trying to purge before the move….

The early stuff through The Order of Nancy was good but everything I've had recently was meh.

What's the story here? I must have missed it
Aggie Therapist
How long do you want to ignore this user?

No story. Just me living in North Austin and have to travel for work up and down 35 and seeing endless billboards about their partnership with the longhorns.

They are big time donors to their athletic department and the official whiskey of tu.

And as Trouble stated, there stuff has become pretty meh. IMO.

I don't have a lot of room to talk on this one. I love Garrison Brothers. Those t-sippers make some good juice.

Still Austin is okay but at that price point I can find much better.

I've wanted to try their BIB Blue Corn whiskey but don't wanna pay the price for a bottle, not that I need another open one anyway.
AgCzar

I like both of them. And Dan Garrison loves Aggies, so it's hard to hate on him for being a sip.

I wrote the entire Aggie War Hymn on the back of a bottle like ten years ago, and he uses it in his newsletter multiple times per year and always shows people from his phone. He thought it was awesome.

It's very good. The High Rye BiB is the best one in the series though. Great pour!

In BCS and have an open bottle of the Red Corn if you're interested at a discount. I wasn't a fan after one pour but maybe I need to give it another shot.

Where was all this GB love when people here dragged me for loving it?

I've always like GB. They're what got me into bourbon. Haven't heard many positive things here though.

Yeah I'm a big fan of their higher proof stuff too. I don't drink GB as much these days but have more than I need from bottling over the years. Killed a Fall '14 on Super Bowl Sunday that was fantastic.

Sometimes you get dragged - that's just how this thread works.

I love GB. And Dan Garrison is a damn good man even if he is a sip.

I'm completely unapologetic in my love of it and I give no ****s if no one else likes it. More for me!

I got some back story.

tu did him dirty as far as being the Official Whiskey of Texas Athletics. Dan is a distinguished alumni over there and has been in the Whiskey scene for many years. But Still Austin is located in Austin and a little more flamboyant for the scene going on in Austin.

You to the GB Ranch and immediately think country and Texas A&M vibes. Maybe one day.

Been there many times. I keep both a bottle of Balmorhea and SB here. Currently also have a bottle Guadalupe. Been trying to get my hands on the Laguna Madre and the Lady Bird.

Get that Cowboy and the rest are just gap fillers, damn fine Texas Bourbon.

I have had the Cowboy. It is good. I like it in the winter with how high proof it is.

True, it's a big proofer, and personally I can drink it year round, but I know what you mean as those high proof pours can be tough when a beer fits the bill much better in the July sun

The Laguna Madre is like bourbon and Cinnabon had a baby. Dangerous.

It was at the Specs drop.

$355. Had to pass.

I think GB's "family style" method is pretty cool. The GB heads are some of the most loyal people to their brand ever. Old 300, volunteer to dip bottles in wax, free labor, always a good experience at the ranch, etc.

This is from the Red White and Bourbon event which is pretty cool.
