    If anyone has some BB9 FT and is looking for some California stuff I would love to trade for a few bottles, wouldn't mind BB1,3,5,6, or 7 as well but I know most of those go a few years back.

    those older bishops barrels (1,3, and 5 for certain) are not holding up well. Be wary of trading for them.

    I just had 5 on Wed at Mongoose Versus Cobra, and it was excellent. Wish I still had some bottles.

    Sorry, 1, 3, and 4 were the bottles I had problems with. All about 6-7 months ago. All oxidized messes.

    Last time I had BB5 was shortly after release and it was delish.

    I can see that. 4 was pretty oxidized last I had it. Haven't had 1 and 3 in a while. I am continually amazed at how 2 is doing. Stunning tart cherries, grape tanins, great barrel character.
