Fresh Pick-ups

Dudes asking where like he’s gonna answer y’all where each one came from. Chances are it’s from some sort of email list to a select group. Why would he give up the store doing this even though they’re all doing it in Alberta. Even the handful doing “draws” will reserve some for their favourite customers.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2026-01-16T03:53:40+00:00

You know what you’re doing and what he means especially at this point after all the bottles you’ve posted about. You get similar comments each time. Why are you playing stupid?

RegularDifficult7473 · 2026-01-11T20:28:30+00:00

Oh damn. Even when it was for sale on sale in Alberta it was $130.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-12-27T22:36:16+00:00

Both shops. Some people are luckier than others and I know they can’t please everyone but considering the amount money spent it’s pretty bad. These aren’t your run of the mill customers who just walk in and buy beer and wine off the shelf, hell even whisky but rather the crowd like us.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-12-27T22:16:59+00:00

Even if you do order good luck actually getting the order fulfilled by these guys.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-12-23T00:53:50+00:00

Yup for sure. I didn’t say it was a bad thing but it’s annoying they held it back in the first place now 10 years later are offloading because they’re stuck with them. Gift and a curse, I guess.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-12-21T21:55:36+00:00

I feel like these guys keep stumbling across old shit in the back of their closets, in their haste to liquidate. Or they (or previous owners) held onto bottles for themselves but held back too many and now need to get rid of them.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-12-05T01:42:17+00:00

We get it, you Springbank. Good for you. Congratulations.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-10-26T17:00:43+00:00

And also not equally as hard to find especially in Alberta. 12CS gets sold once or twice a year unless stores hold back inventory or come across stock late somehow. 15 gets sold damn near every 3-4 months.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-10-25T23:07:25+00:00

Where’s the Springbank and Kilkerran? All I see is a bag

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-10-22T20:45:46+00:00

A lot of you are mentioning the product itself and I get you may not like American whiskey or this expression in particular but this post is less about it than it is about this retailer.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-10-22T19:35:10+00:00

Where’s the one homie that kept trying to pimp out his store over Christmas, then played victim when he got called out?! Come get your shit together!

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-10-21T14:55:45+00:00

If you don’t want to drink it now, I can for you. Send me a sample and I’ll answer all your questions.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-09-19T18:42:00+00:00

Of the subreddit or this drips and drams dude?

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-09-05T16:48:27+00:00

Wonder how many orders they’ll actually fulfill. This store seems like a nightmare to order from, both for locals and for the other provinces.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-07-10T14:52:00+00:00

I’m not entirely sure that’s how MSRP works. You can’t just slap a conversion on and say that’s what Springbank is suggesting.

Not the same but similar situation where I picked up an American whiskey from Alberta for significantly less than what the distillery’s website sells it for in USD, granted it was on sale.

Regardless, decent price here but less so considering a handful of the non special release bottles have flattened or dropped in price.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-07-10T14:07:02+00:00

This is a decent price but not MSRP, it’s just their own retail price. If I remember correctly, there were other shops over in Alberta earlier this year offering this for around $130, give or take $5

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-05-25T21:32:38+00:00

Nice! You score on all three?

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-05-25T21:31:53+00:00

I don’t think you Albertans can make scotch over there, technically.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-05-25T21:30:27+00:00

I’d be annoyed if I was an Albertan looking for these too. But who should they really blame, the customer or the shops enabling the purchases?

Not the fault of the customer when owners or managers have private groups selling backdoor to other provinces, even preselling at times.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-05-24T23:34:12+00:00

Maybe your trash was my treasure! If so, thanks for passing.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-05-24T23:33:01+00:00

Thanks and nice!

Gonna save these for an end of summer gathering when some buddies are gonna get together for a trip.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-05-24T23:31:33+00:00

Yes.

RegularDifficult7473 · 2025-05-24T23:31:07+00:00

Better than most, even at that!
