  1. I had the Johnson’s baby powder and Cool Water cologne. I was fresh dressed like a million bucks. Threw on my white socks with the all blue Chucks.
  2. You are correct. The antique was marked up. But I had never had a bottle. So I went ahead and paid for it. That was on a previous raffle. This months raffle had the ECBP left and I took it. At the end of the day I’m trying to effectuate a relationship with the store owners and hope that I can parlay that into some other bottles. I make it a point to buy my Rare Breed from them. So if I have to overpay then so be it. But I’m hoping it leads to bigger and better things in the future.
  3. Pretty excited. I have had a couple bottles of ECBP and really enjoyed them. I’m down to the last few pours in a previous bottle. Funny thing is….the store where I win these raffles usually has better bourbons left at the end. Most people go for the Blantons and eagle before the Antique or ECBP. I hit on a bottle of Stagg Jr at this spot because everyone else took the name first. So in the last 3 draws I’ve won a larceny, an antique, and now an ECBP. I know these aren’t some of the highly sought after bottles most post here. But i think I have a pretty good stash of solid juice in my cabinet.
  4. Now we have to find a way to blow out dumba knees Oettinger with the nice save
  5. Just poured the last of last years batch. Thankfully I’ve never had to pay more than $70 for any of the 3 bottles I’ve gotten.
  6. Two of my favorites of all time….
  7. Well…thank god this is over….
  8. I opened the OWA. Loved the proof. But I’m gonna let it breathe and taste again tomorrow. So now I’m just gonna go with what I know. If it says Rare Breed on it….I love it.
  9. Keeping it on the heavy side tonight. Oldie but a goodie.
  10. 903 Brewers Barrel Aged Chupacabra 13.1% ABV Currently cooling off in the fridge for consumption later this evening.
  11. Congeners are minor compounds other than ethanol that occur naturally in alcohol beverages as a result of distilling and fermenting processes. Ethanol itself is the main source of hangover and other residual effects of alcohol (cognitive and behavioral). Studies comparing beer to liquor to wine, have generally not addressed beverage effects that clearly differ in congener content. The few experimental studies indicate that the highest congener beverage (bourbon) results in more severe hangover ratings than does the beverage with essentially no congeners (vodka), although ethanol effects per se had a considerably stronger effect on hangover than did congener content.
  12. I chose the OWA. Have never had a bottle of it nor have I tasted it. So I went ahead and chose that one. Went back in today to see if there were any gems and nobody wanted this Larceny that was in the drawing. So I took it. I was hoping it was the C922. But I thought the A122 I already had was pretty good. So it just gives me a backup to a backup. Im holding out on the C921 because I’ve heard that one was tasty.
  13. Not highly sought after bottles by any means. But I keep my name in the loop at my mom and pop store. So I win occasional lottos and purchase all my Rare Breed there. So for this “win”, what does surly say I pick?
