    Something tells me we might be seeing SLIGHTLY more BCBS in the upcoming years. That is just a wild guess.

    And stores around here will still try to charge $10 a bottle for BCBS.

    Maybe not appropriate for the topic, but reminded me of this question. What happened to just straight Templeton Rye aged BCBS? Thought I heard they aged some in the rye whiskey barrels w/o fruit this past year and it would be on tap across bars in the city but I have not heard or seen anything.

    Not sure how recent it was, but I saw keg label approved for Templeton Rye.

    Probably see it at more events as the year moves forward. I had it at the GI Oktoberfest.
