  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Went to Garfield's yesterday and they had released an OFBS single barrel pick at 134.6 proof. Grabbed it and opened it after dinner. Interested to see how this opens up, it doesn't have that cherry cough syrup note that some of the picks have.

Walked through the liquor section at Mariano's Grocery yesterday. They have a 10 year 7 day Knob Creek single barrel pick, and it was $16 off MSRP.

This one is much less oak forward than a lot of the KC picks I've had. I've been holding onto my older picks like a nun holds on to her chastity, so it's good to have an open bottle on the bar.

Looks like a party right there, Jake! Glad you dig the Maker's.

Some KC single barrel for me last night.

Me and my drinking buddy went pretty hard that night. He also smoked a prime rib on the grill. Great drinks. Some beer and a bottle of wine I’m not sure I fully recovered the next day. Haven’t even had a beer since. Gotta cut loose once in a while lol. Good times

Sounds like Good Times for sure, Jake!

Last few nights





Opened a Jay West pick single barrel Pinhook (high proof). I generally love all of Jay's picks, haven't made up my mind about this one yet. The most "in your face" Pinhook barrel I've ever had, we'll see how it opens up.
