  1. Right now I’ve got OESV, OBSV, OESQ, OBSQ and OESK at the house.  

    I’m also debating talking to a local shop about underwriting a private barrel for them.  Don’t tell Mrs. Brown Water.

    If it's barrel proof, I would grab one.  I think "Private Selection" implies barrel proof, but not positive.  I think I've had OESF and OESQ before and both were great.  OBSV is the standard single barrel so if you like that, this will be a higher proof and the yeast is supposed to be more "floral".

    Yes. Private selection equals barrel proof.  And yes it's worth $70 a bottle.  There are 10 variations. OE is a low rye mash bill (by 4 roses standards but still higher than most) and OB is their high rye.  Both mashbills get paired with one of five yeast strains each with a unique character to make the 10 options.  I'm generally prefer the low rye but was surprised by the OBSV (yes same mashbill as the single barrel but at cask strength and with more age).  It may have been one of the best I've had. 

    Word of caution.  Thought I've never disliked any of these I've like some substantially more than others. OESO was my least favorite and I think that is the "fruit" profile if I recall correctly   Anyway my point is they're all surprisingly different and the fact that they are single barrel and often aged different lengths and have different proofs makes even the same mashbill somewhat variable

    Not enough.

    They can never hate him enough.  Because hate for Trump doesn't come from inner anger, rage, and burning hate.  It doesn't come from a place of wanting to see others suffer.  It's just not enough.

  4. Washington (CNN)When Hillary Clinton said that her Republican rival Donald Trump had paid no federal income tax in some years, Trump didn't deny it.

    In fact, he said: "That makes me smart."

    "I have a substantial chance of winning. If I win, I don't want to broadcast to the enemy exactly what my plan is," the Republican nominee said at an NBC-hosted commander-in-chief forum in New York.
