Lol who was that lucky guy that got to try some excellent stuff?

P.s. the best beers in Michigan are from the places no one has heard of.

 

Dont get me started on regular Blanton's. SFTB is great though.

 

I really like Blanton’s. When I see it, I buy it. With that being said, I’m not paying over state min and I’m not showing up to a liquor store at dawn. I buy stuff I like to drink it, and we could discuss at length how many other bottles I find equally as good as Blantons for less money and that are easier to find.

 

Don't recall a name, but he sent me the full allotment of Drafting Table's BA beers (4 16oz cans.) Admittedly, they're fairly rare since I think they only release one barrel of each beer, so getting the 'right eyes' to see a trade request is difficult. For Phil was the first time those requests met the right eyes to make it happen.

Only had it twice. Once was with a coworker who admires whiskey, so it was fun to sip a pour with him. The other time, a new bar in town hadn't priced out their liquor yet, so all the pours were the same price, including doubles. Was difficult not to order Blanton's at that point. SFTB sounds like a better fit for my interests.

 

If you’re wanting to trade it, it absolutely is. Albeit tougher to find for a decent price.

 

Agree - it's good but the number of people chasing it to make a quick $40-50 is really silly.

 

Blantons is (was) my favorite bourbon for a long time, and i dont think ive ever paid more than $55 for it. its a shame to hear that even CVS is jumping on the bandwagon. still have a couple 2018s left, after those are gone i wont be drinking it much anymore :/

i ended up with a big stash a few years ago when if you bought more than 6 it was $48. i handed them out as Xmas gifts that year lol. thats never happening again.

 

I'd have a more difficult time letting go of a bottle like that. I didn't plan on trading For Phil until I tried it on site. I'm more likely to drink my one-and-only bottle than trade it.

Really glad I didn't buy the bottle at this point. I hadn't seen it before, and was damn tempted. I was surprised it wasn't more in Las Vegas. Figured someone who was up on their play that day may treat themselves.

 

Drafting Table puts out some absolutely delicious brews.

 

Agreed. Their fruited stuff is really good.

 

Wax Wings.

 

This right here… Best brewery in Michigan right now.

 

Wow. I’m surprised you can make a call like that. There’s room for them all in my heart.

 

Hey. Someone needs to be in the pole position. For me, that’s Wax Wings right now. Their barrel aged stouts and barley wines hold up against damn near anyone and their hops and fruited stuff are top notch.

 

I absolutely agree. They are really killing it right now.

 

OK OK kidding. I have not had this..I'll check it

 

I've only had one BA stout from them but it was tasty

 

BA stout with almonds and vanilla beans for TWCP

 

Looks like another 375. Personally could do without the almonds.

 

Can anybody here report thoughts on RBBT b2? How's it drinking in comparison to BBT5 or BBT4?

I see a trade for BBT4 IP in my area. Tempted to go for it, but I'm also stoked to try BBT4.
