don’t play with my emotions y’all

 

C’mon first new beer of 2023 LC!!!! I won’t be there till May, so let’s hold off on on-site only bottles for a little

 

it showed what i assume to be accompanying glasses in the story yesterday too. i think this will be LC

I really hope you’re right. I prefer to drink at home vs the cellar and would love to solo dome this in my recliner and debating my life decisions.

 

If I knew how to insert GIFs, Ted Lasso’s “Believe” would be appropriate right here

 

how about step brothers?

 

GIFs are easier than a photo. For a GIF, just find it on google, right click and copy image, come back and paste. The GIF shows up. By contrast, if you want to insert an image you have to save it to a hosting site (I use imgur, others use...postimage?), and "paste" it that way (more than none way to accomplish this).

 

Did we just become best friends?! Yup!

 

it’s the f*ckin’ Old Rip Van Winkle BBT Mixer!

 

shit, you stole my line! too many good lines in that movie!

 

Oh damn!! I really hope this guy is to go, but I got a feeling it’ll be on-site only, fingers crossed!!

 

the bathroom vial fills are to-go, though, from what I heard.

 

Oh joy, a longer acronym. Dbpvworvwdbbbtb1

 

Is old Rip the same recipe as Pappy and Lot B etc? Pappy is just aged longer?

 

The same distillate (at approx. the same proof - since it always varies a little) goes into barrels and gets placed in the locations that are known on average to be the best/consistent for that line. They taste them and slowly earmark them as it becomes apparent what each barrel will become.

So, yes, same mash bill, same distillate, just aged for different periods and proof is adjusted based on brand after being dumped.

 

I already knew the answer. Just pointing out how silly it is to write two paragraphs bitching about 10 year vs 12/15 etc when it's the same "pappy" recipe.

 

I always thought your screen name was a reference to an author, thus encouraging us all, or at least yourself, into reading more. Alas, I think I just realized it's just a sports reference.

This whole time I think we all just assumed this forum was for you and we just wanted to pay tribute with as many words as possible.

 

So, maybe they should just call it a Weller barrel or a Weller barrel a pappy barrel since it’s all just the same mashbill?

 

I'm sure you would bitch about that as well. Probably a couple of paragraphs worth.

 

I think you’re onto something here. From now on all the Buffalo Trace barrels will be referred to as George T. Stagg 8 year barrels.
