No Weller here but I did go and pick these up. Love Ch 7 and have read good things about 8. We will see.

Mike, I wasn't impressed with the last MMCA, I would only be a buyer at retail.

Dave, hope the LBs are to your liking.

Friday's drop at Binny's, 1 per customer:

My local base had Booker's 7 on sale so I grabbed a bottle, along with some Wild Turkey Rare Breed.

I’m guessing he meant Bakers 7.

One of the best pours I've had this year, basically Toasted Booker's. Thank you again Mikepd.

Opened up an Ezra Brooks Cask Strength last night. I enjoy this one.

Stopped by Total Wine on my way out to my friends cottage yesterday. Surprised to see 4 Roses SiBBP OESO on the center table. They also had EC B524, but passed for now.

I had some Still Austin Cask Strength last night. I'm really enjoying this.

Well, my afternoon is ruined. Finally remembered to look up if there’s any correlation between my low alcohol tolerance and a blood disorder I have. Really didn’t find much about that. But basically everything I read said to not drink alcohol at all. Can accelerate cirrhosis of the liver. Wish I’d known this two years ago before I bought all these bottles.

Drink slower and less, enjoy more. Experts are probably right but if I have to listen to a more campaigning adds think maybe my mental health requires me to drink and smoke more.

Or go insane but live like a Buddhist monk in a monetary. No talking, no internet, just me, my broom, and saving insect lives. All I need now is a good bourbon and cigars.

I’m waiting to hear back from my doc to see what she says. Hopefully I can still enjoy a pour every now and then.

Bob, I am so sorry to hear this for multiple reasons.

That's why I don't go to doctors, they try to tell me stuff. ;)

Sorry to hear that Bob, but please take care of yourself. I agree with Dave: drink less alcohol, enjoy more. Do drink more water, eat healthier, live longer. Your liver can be healed, but it takes time.

Thanks. I’m definitely trying. Could just be me overreacting too.

Sorry to hear that Bob, hopefully you find a nice middle ground and still get to enjoy a few of those bottles from time to time.

Overpaid, but I had to have one.
