I don't drink, but I do sniff glue if you're buying.

I didn't give bourbon the time of day until COVID hit and my sister gave me a bottle of Weller Antique for my birthday. Now I love it. Sue me. 

Yes, BT is good at marketing and there is a lot of hype around their products, but they produce some damn good bourbon. Are we going to sit here and act like Stagg, ER, EHT, the antique collection, etc. aren't some of the better bourbons you can purchase? Even if it wasn't allocated, I'd be drinking ER as my daily driver. 

I love KC 12, Rare Breed, OF 1920, RR 10 year, etc. as much as the next guy...but if people wan't to wait in line to purchase their ER because it's a novelty for them and they like it, then let them. You just come off as having sour grapes because you can't get any. 

I'm not "Gatekeeping" anything, I don't even have a gate. I lived in Lawrenceburg (home of Wild Turkey and 4 Roses) for 22 years, and work about 2 blocks from BT distillery in Frankfort. I have enough friends working at the distilleries that if I really wanted it, I could get it. Yes, BT makes damn fine bourbon, and when I find ER or EH Taylor for retail at the liquor store I buy it (I do not like Weller except for the 12 year) As for people who stand in line to buy it because they like it, that doesn't bother me at all. It's the people who buy in and immediately try to flip it for 3 times what they paid for it before they even drive off that I dislike. They're basically nothing but another form of ticket scalper. Meanwhile, Old Forester Statesman, Michters Small Batch, 4 Roses and Noah's Mill are my go to's.

Maker's 46 Cask Strength is my favorite (so far) for wheated, but I also prefer Bardstown wheated from their Origin Series and Old Elk. Also, Green River wheated and Penelope wheated (4-grain) for more of everyday sippers under $50.
Heck, the Wellers I've had are actually my least favorite bourbons from the entire BT line I've had.

Agreed

Nope, if there was, we would be discussing it. Just passing the time....

But we are Bengals fans so it's not at all surprising that many of us might have a vice or two, but who's keeping score!? Self loathing is part of the Bengals fan experience!

Gotta love the false narrative you create....I.i dont even know the price of a bottle..our golf buddy owns a distributorship and has brought the booze for our golf games for over a decade ..but let me respond in a way that wont inflame you...see ya ...time for golf and some booze..with ice
