My father in law is, and he told me he'd be happy to sponsor me

My aunt found all the ads and papers he save over the years and gave them to me last year. So many of them are hilarious.

His era, squires got 1ft x 1ft plots instead of the modern 1in. They were also only allowed to invite 1 other person in their lifetime, where now it's 3. In his papers is his original yellowed form to invite his one more. I'd send that in, but they also allow them to be willed, so I'm good to go as soon as I make it out there to make it official.

I've got a barrel pick from BVBS last year. Going in August to do another pick of Rye. I'm a New Riff fan.

I had that 8 year New Riff a few weeks ago at the distillery. It was really great! Did you get that locally?

It is in stock occasionally on their website. Shipping was reasonable iirc. They ship to Texas.

Spoke with Raju last night. Apparently we have to sign an affidavit saying we won't put a tater sticker on the back of their bottle.

Distilleries not liking the fun and games I guess.

So don't put them on the ones for sale in the store. Have them available for the mules to bring back to the rest of us

None will hit the stores. All ours.

I'll have to ask this question directly. My take was that GB didn't want to see pictures on social media with stickers on their bottles.

I'm not trying to get blacklisted because someone felt the need to post a picture of it and ruin it for all of us.

It's been so long since we stuff a GB pick with our group that I can't remember what they allowed. We named them but I don't think we did stickers. I'll have to go find my Almost Christmas and check.

Interesting - I looked at their website and shipping wasn't available. Only option was pick up at distillery gift shop.

Since I am not a GB fan, I will go buy a bottle of their cheap stuff (probably $150 crud anyway) and slap the dumbest tater sticker on there I can find.
Post on the socials.
Tick them off.
Just for funsies.

I wonder what the reason is. is it some kind of infringement thing? is it a brand thing? Is it a legal thing so that required things on the label aren't blocked?

Edit - My guess folks is started taking it too far and ruined it.

I think I read that some stickers were covering up part of the legit label that's required by law. So that's a no no.

Knob Creek moved to the dimpled bottle because it's harder to slap a sticker on.

That dimpled knob creek bottle is much cooler anyway, so win win I guess.

Yeah. I wish it was a case by case basis….but that's probably A pain in the ass for GB.

Especially if we're raising money for Brazos Valley Cares.

My $0.02 - stickers for picks are fun and unique, but significantly less important than the quality of the pick and the cause that we are fundraising for. Anything that potentially compromises those 2 components should be an easy decision to forego.

When handed the sticker separately from the bottle I never put it on.

everyone on this board does not have the same self-control as you.

So we're rolling without the tater sticker

If I get 2, one gets stickered and the other sticker goes on the beer fridge

This is my bottle in the pic. I got 3 last time it came up. You have to find the special link they post that allows shipping. It's not fast but for 3 straight to my front door. It's really good and I have it on auto update then it shows back in store

What would y'all pay for a Michter's barrel strength rye? A store near me has it for $200 and I almost bit on it. They price gouge their allocated stuff like crazy, but that didn't seem *too* high compared to their other stuff.

Edit to add that I don't know what year release it is.
