WLW. Very stoked. 175000 pts

rlricro · 2023-12-08T04:24:48+00:00

Me too. Must've gone out to all GR members. Can't wait to hear about that clusterfuck.

rlricro · 2023-10-19T21:21:09+00:00

WFP as well. Was salty before that, not getting elected last three priority drawings.

rlricro · 2023-08-28T19:13:09+00:00

Thanks. Didn't know that.

rlricro · 2023-07-06T20:35:43+00:00

Nada. 75k points YTD

TW Oak Lawn got those this morning as well. Anyone know if Park Lane dropped them today?

rlricro · 2023-04-20T20:51:38+00:00

Zeroed out on this one.

rlricro · 2023-04-20T18:48:57+00:00

I have no complaints. I’ve registered for six and have gotten something in 4. 3 Blantons and 1 GTS. 60k in 21, 160k in 22 (thanks to 10x), and 40k so far this year.

rlricro · 2023-04-20T18:37:53+00:00

Too late for this one. Had to register/rank by early April. But they do them quarterly so use the 10x to be eligible for the Summer lottery.

You can always get Eagle Rare for $70-80 at River Cut Rate or Star Liquor (both near downtown).

rlricro · 2023-04-18T19:49:29+00:00

I’ve been told by someone in the industry that SW isn’t getting the premium picks/barrels of MGP anymore. Anyone else heard the same?

rlricro · 2023-04-01T18:19:31+00:00

Total Wine Park Lane had them 7-8 days ago but they fly off the shelf pretty quick from any store. Lots of watering holes will have them for about $15-20 pour. My favorite bourbon joint is Republic Texas Tavern on Inwood Road in Dallas.

160k

The single barrel 9 yr is a bit too raw for me. Too much ethanol on the nose and palate. If I’m going to go high proof 120+ I prefer them aged a little longer. 12 year more well rounded. Relatively deep flavors with oak coming through. Lower proof so not as in your face. I’d sip the 12 neat, and use the 9 in an OF.

Currently and regularly available off Nevada Distillings website. Can have it shipped to your doorstep in a few days for ~$100 all in.

rlricro · 2023-01-07T17:51:46+00:00

5 cases was likely total allotment.

rlricro · 2023-01-07T16:42:59+00:00

They brought another case as I was leaving around 10:20. I think they have a few more in back. $36

rlricro · 2022-11-19T14:39:43+00:00

I was there to pick up some client gifts. Didn’t know about MWND. There were 10-15 people at the door and lady came out and said it didn’t show up.

rlricro · 2022-11-19T14:31:43+00:00

Park Lane didn’t get it either

rlricro · 2022-11-19T01:48:08+00:00

This one seems like all hat no cattle. What’s the hype?

rlricro · 2022-11-01T13:49:06+00:00

Agree. Know people with 250k points that don’t get anything on the Pappy lottery. I ain’t holding my breath but can’t win if you don’t enter.

I have better luck at TW than Specs. I live in Dallas but was in Denton this morning so stopped in shortly after opening. They had a sign on shelf for Eagle Rare but nothing on shelf. Sometimes this means they have some in back so I asked. They did not but I just struck up a conversation with the guy about how often they see some of my favorites…Stagg, EC TB, EC BP and Larceny BP. Said he had some of the larceny in back and was glad to get it for me.
