    I don’t have a drinking problem, I’ve got a buying problem.

    This could probably go in the stupid shit your wife’s/GF do thread but last summer we were at the pool all day. My kids wanted a Kona Ice from the truck that comes to the neighborhood. Well I had to take them back to their moms that evening. I get home and my wife says she made me a drink. She opened my brand new bottle of Stagg Jr and put it in the Kona ice. I seriously thought if jail was worth it

    I was only responding to that one post about bourbon generally. Not criticizing you for the ice cube.

    I’m putting C920 behind B520 but in front of A120. Please respect my decision. I will not be taking interviews at this time.

    2) 2018 - vanilla yum
    3) 2019 - CHERRIES, wish it was higher proof
    4) 2016 - chocolate and pretty hot

    Sounds about right. The A121 should be dropping soon right?

    The B519 and C920 talk is just Heaven Hill’s naming convention for their tri-annual releases (Elijah Craig Barrel Proof and Larceny Barrel Proof.)

    A/B/C refers to first, second, or third release of the year
    First digit refers to release month
    Last two digits refer to the year

    B519 was the second batch of 2019 released in May

    yea my Co-Worker lives in downtown Louisville and we did the pick up option for Michters. He grabbed it today after ordering it on Monday.

    I guess they release items on Monday morning everyweek got curbside

    they had Sour Mash and 10 yr Rye as well but we went with this combo instead. Gotta work Florida trip in a week, so this is what we will be drinking down there after our meetings during the day

    Yeah they released the toasted barrel rye on tuesday but i was not near my laptop. Seems like they are dropping once to twice a week and then designating a pickup time.

    At a buddy's after-rehearsal dinner party, his dad pulled out a bottle of either 20 or 23 year old Pappy and poured a bunch of guys an ounce or two prior to a toast. When everyone "cheers'd", without thinking (and basically sober) I instinctively shot it.

    Immediately did this :facepalm:
