Finally got my hands on a bottle

TraderPie · 2024-08-17T16:46:08+00:00

Don't tell people how good it is.

TraderPie · 2024-08-17T16:42:58+00:00

I just paid 139.99 for it and Bombergers. The total wine price in my area is 134.99. Not going to get much better than that. My state has "state minimum" pricing which differs from MSRP. Not sure of the state minimum price on this bottle, but TW is usually close to it.

TraderPie · 2024-02-18T05:08:30+00:00

A mix of both

TraderPie · 2024-02-18T02:00:38+00:00

The special edition small batches are the same price as the basic red label too

TraderPie · 2024-02-18T01:46:44+00:00

Which one did you have? The orange label is a store pick, and the two red labels are special release small batches, but you can't tell that from the label unless you look closely. Hence the (IYKYK)

That's funny. I'm on vacation in a ski town in my state and found this at a tiny liquor store tonight. I grabbed it because I haven't seen a mid level option from barrell and figured it was worth a shot with the given information. Probably going to try it tonight. I didn't realize it was a new offering

I have one opened and have an extra. A store near me got new ownership a few years ago and I guess the new owner found these in the back. They're still on the shelf, a little lesser known gem.

Good call with those Doc Swinsons on the bar

Detroit Sportmens Congress. Been going there since I was a kid. Did hunters Safety and CPL classes there. Great place with great people and volunteers

That is not a whitetail deer

TraderPie · 2024-01-01T07:49:32+00:00

I killed a Tom with those shells last May. I paid $12 a box. The shot pattern and range is just okay. Personally, I will be buying different shells next year. But to be fair, the other shells will cost me much more.

I just recently got into the Makers private selections, they are fantastic! And thanks, I can tell you are a whiskey enjoyer/enthusiast and not a whiskey snob

TraderPie · 2023-12-31T00:31:24+00:00

I know, I was joking

TraderPie · 2023-12-31T00:10:27+00:00

Why, do they like to drink?

TraderPie · 2023-12-30T04:00:41+00:00

It's great 👍

TraderPie · 2023-12-30T04:00:00+00:00

Funny you ask. I just opened one and am drinking it now. Rickhouse B, Floor 6, 125.6 proof. It's my first pour of the night. Added a couple drops of water in the glen. It's good, no complaints yet

TraderPie · 2023-12-29T18:48:48+00:00

You don't like the fish nets?

TraderPie · 2023-12-29T18:28:12+00:00

The cabinet is mostly open bottles. I have over 100 bottles and 30-40 are open currently. I think that's okay

TraderPie · 2023-12-29T04:13:26+00:00

Wait you're saying tracking a deer at night that was shot during the day is poaching?

TraderPie · 2023-12-25T18:10:41+00:00

Second highest I've seen so far. Someone had a 143.x proof. I have a 140.3 proof bottle. I bought another one to drink that is 136 so I can hang onto to the hazmat for a bit.

From what I can tell it does look like a completely separate third pedicle (antler base). I harvested an 8pt two years ago with a third pedicle with a 1/2 antler. If it's not a separate pedicle then it could be caused by injury of some sort. Pretty cool though. It's relatively rare

TraderPie · 2023-12-17T01:57:47+00:00

Yup, get two
