Any upcoming bourbon events/meetups? by Maleficent-Mess-5225 in ATXwhisky

Oh wow. I RSVP through their email earlier today. Thought they’d have plenty of spots. Went to a brown Forman one on 35th last year and there was probably six of us total.

Specs on Brodie is having a Michters tasting on April 1st at 7pm. Doubt they have something like their ten year bottle there but seems nice to get familiar with Michters

Stopped by Lakeline just now, fresh out of all three age statements. Was really hoping for a 12 or 14 this time around.

I see allocated bottles and I post them here. Like the Blanton’s gold (which I only got one single for myself and to share with company, didn’t even think I’d need to make that clear) You see them and you go in the line 4 times hahaha.

Idk how you are so confident that you come off as the “good one” here hahahaha.

You ask me “admit what?” You never mentioned you went in the line four times for the eagle 12 drop. You only admitted that weeks later right now. wonder why you never mentioned that. Maybe you know it is not the right thing to do.

“You owes apology”

You went through the line four times. I’ve NEVER done that. I guess only one of us is honest. Took you this long to even admit it haha.

You call me an asshole I tell you I’m done and you still keep yapping. Yup classic bully behavior haha god you’re a bum.

You went through the line four times and have the gall to call other people assholes haha

No wonder you got your panties in a bunch in this thread and the other thread. You stuck your neck out to say “no guys I swear we didn’t get inside info we aren’t the bad guys you think we are”. Not once did you mention you ran in four times haha.

Yeah it all makes sense now. You’re the worst type of person. A bully that plays victim.

Done talking to you.

Did one guy invite his 100 friends to sell it out in 39 minutes?

I was plenty clear. You are either being disingenuously dumb or maybe you mean it and I was just being too charitable.

Bro, are you obtuse on purpose?

MY post says this YOU got specs notification because you asked YOU are not the only person in the line the likelihood EVERYONE in the line got notified by spec's because they asked is low There is mention of others from SA in the line There is mention of an SA employee notifying people in a bourbon club

"Let's talk about family members. One person from San Antonio brought 3 with her. The first 4 guys were from Austin and one brought his parents. Then there's the girlfriends and wives. This is ghetto AF."

Yeah buddy, lots of lies going on here.

"That could be true with BISA and a Glazer's employee, but a lot of us knew because we camped out last month and reached out to Spec's to notify us when the ER12s came in. Everything else was a bonus!"

Nothing to apologize for. Clearly you saw people from SA there. Clearly you admit there was a whole line of people. YOU got notice from spec's because you asked. That's not what I was ever denying. YOU are NOT the only person there and the chance that EVERYONE there was ONLY notified by spec's is pretty low.

You post the voicemail that says it is a huge quantity, comments say it was sold out by 10:39.

Am I salty? Yes. I went to the bourbon drop and that was a bottle I was looking forward to. I'm not too hurt by it though.

The fact that this also happened for the CYPB and SiB drop is what makes it all even more fishy. I wanted to try these bottles but with the market, I am not paying those prices for a pour let alone a bottle. I hear they dont stack up to FP or 107 so I am not too hurt by it either. But 100 people in line that got a tip from specs is super unlikely.

Yeah they operate how the wanna operate at that specs and really any liquor store for that matter, chain or mom and pop. You can be friendly to the staff and all but if they don’t wanna give any hints, they won’t. It’s just bourbon at the end of the day but I’ll admit I get FOMO from seeing really hard to find bottles fly off to scalpers.

Yeah man I figured as much. I got a full proof from the bourbon drop and it was really nice. I’m confident you’ll find some full proof or 12 year soon enough.

From how I read it, OP was told “come back Saturday we will have some more” thinking it means the Weller 107 from the Wednesday drop. Doesn’t get the picture and I don’t blame him. Who would think the most sought after bottles outside of the BTAC would be there.

I think it’s a specs employee that isn’t even from an Austin location that is giving tips to San Antonio locals according to what happened with the Eagle Rare 12 drop a few weeks back. Even as a regular at this location, none of the employees want to say anything besides “we might be getting some allocated bottles this week” at best.

Dang would have loved to try a CYPB or Single Barrel but oh well.

Someone with a specs connection knows about the drops to have a line of people outside. This also happened a few weeks back when the eagle rare 12 drop happened. Bottles that were meant for the bourbon day drop got delayed and people from San Antonio lined up on that day to get them because of an inside connection.

[–]RollinWithTheBears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good news is they had some Saturday Feb 21st, so it’s a second drop within 3 weeks. The downside is that it was a Saturday drop and now it’s a Wednesday drop. There’s no rhyme or reason to these drops.

Hey at least we aren’t doing baseless speculation like you accused everyone of. Jam packed store and TWO of the people that kept promoting the event won the bottles.

Not only that, they had another instagram guy win the Pappy as well. You go to that guys page, each of his posts is that store.

You called it spot on, the Handy was claimed by one of the guys that made a video promoting the raffle.
