  1. Took damn near 2022 to find one but I’ll take it… No way would I call this out as Makers in a blind tasting… as soon as you detect the fruit notes you get smashed with oak/smoke which then tapers off to chewy grains. Can’t say I love it, but it’s very unique.
  2. Got there right at open at it was about 10 people deep. Might have had something to do with that horrific loss to KU the night before, but I was pretty surprised. The line for the same set up at Cattleack a few days later was easily 5 times as long.
  3. Old Forester 1910/1920 I’ve yet to share it with a soul who didn’t love that juice.
  4. Life is good, boys… Also snagged a Bardstown Batch and it’s really interesting. The peanut comes through on the nose but is almost completely absent on the pallet. The finish comes though like a sherry cask.
  5. Went for something “Simple” last night after the madness of Thursday:
  6. Pork loin with Brussels and duck fat Gruyère potatoes
  7. Nothing wrong with that… matter of perspective and all that. I’m honestly excited to try my first since Act 4. May do a side/side to see how it holds up.
  8. I’ve found a new love:
  9. Big fan of everything this crew is putting together!
  10. That’s correct - A side connect got “one” and I only got it out of her after 3 rounds of begging. I fondly recall when you could find Act 3 in bulk on shelves… those were the days!
  11. Truly jealous… nice pull! I did OK yesterday:

    Cattleack brings the heat… just superb! I could eat this wagyu pastrami rib twice a day and come back for more! Burnt end boudin was also quite strong.
  13. I was honestly shocked when I saw it at the club a few weeks back. Been looking for a bottle for going on 3 years now… never even seen it on secondary.
  14. Oh, also, this is now a thing. Sadly I’ll be in Texas during the release but may get lucky on return… here’s hoping!
  15. Uggg I am paying for last night’s choices today, but it was alll worth it. If you see this bottle in the wild, do not hesitate.
  16. Revisiting A Smith Bowman… stone cold sober and this shit is outstanding!
  17. Tonight’s lineup: ‘21 A Smith Bowman ‘21 Warehouse C The former crushed and it’s not even close. Could not be more disappointed with the Taylor. It was entirely lacking of character.
  18. Hmm… not bad. May go back for the 4YO New Riff rye!
  19. Probably having a squid, especially a sardine, in a landlocked area. Guy likely had no business there other than R&R, hence the fishing comment.
  20. ^^^ That business infuriates me. It’s not like we haven’t been doing this for decades and have an entire game plan in place for pulling out supporting personnel and their families when we eventually bail. Why anyone would work with us on the ground is beyond me. Lie to get us there, lie about the situation on the ground in perpetuity and lie to those who trusted us as we vanish into the night. It’s cowardly and pathetic, especially given our vast resources.
  21. ‘87 Diamond Creek?! Good lord…
  22. In case you forgot that Jkidd is a world class POS, today should serve as a reminder. Still absolutely despise this hire.
  23. We don’t know but assume 80’s… Couldn’t find anything related to the batch, so if y’all know how to track down please share! Meanwhile, caught some good store picks today. The proof on this OF is [emoji91][emoji91][emoji91]
  24. Ginger chicken with rice and peanut sauce got the job done.
  25. You’ve inspired me to do a physical lineup of my BT rankings… seems this thread consistently brings the motivation.
