Read online that its release time for the antique collection. If anyone gets their hands on the 2014 Eagle Rare 17, let me know what you think. I've been looking for it every year for 3 years... with no luck. Just wondering how it compares to the 10.

i have been retailing booze in KY for fifteen years, and i haven't laid eyes firsthand on eagle 17 or william larue in about four years. my theory is, they are trying (struggling) to keep eagle and w.l. weller regular production on the shelves, and have to keep a fine line between antique barrels in the rick house and dipping into those early for the standard stuff.

which is to say, good luck, brother, and lost pix if you do scoop some. o)

I hardly saw any BTAC in WA last year but did see one bottle of Eagle 17. But damn, that's quite the rape, I mean price, on that link!?!

Still waiting for it to hit the smaller stores here. Hoping to get lucky with a bottle or two this year.

I do have a bottle of 2013 ER17 but haven't cracked it yet. Would sell it for half of what that link has it for lol. It's crazy how much people are willing to pay for HTF stuff. Saw a bottle of PVW20 last year disappear from at store after a week with a price of $699

I remember Pappy could be bought for like $90 and GTS for $60 in PA. Now the state doesn't get it I don't think.
All the BTAC i've come across in Kansas and Missouri this year have been 64.99-65.99 :)

This years haul 2x Stagg and a Handy. Last year i was able to get handy, 2 stagg, wlw and ER17.. I did also see an ER17 randomly during the year and went back 2 days later to get it and it was gone..

As for pappy.. when it is around here it goes for $35 10yr, $52 12yr, $65 rye, $69 15yr, $114 20yr, and $219 23yr..
