if you don't mind, how easy is it for you to to get weller 12 and what does it cost?

here, it's allocated and gone in minutes. no chance to buy.

once weller 12 got billed as the pappy rejects, the supply dried up.

No problem, don't mind at all. Exactly $28.95/bottle at all times here in tightly regulated and price controlled OLCC-land.

Not always in stock, but a very good friend owns multiple liquor stores, and always keeps me posted on the availability of this and several other items, and lets me buy my fill. I usually keep it simple and just buy a case at a time.

P.S. - If you want to talk about rare, try to find a remaining bottle of Weller 19

fark! the special reserve and 107 generally $20-25 or so, but I paid $54 for a 12 a few weeks ago since that was the price and the store had one. ONE. Thank you very much. and yea, used to be as much as you want for $25 a few years ago.

I don't know you should back up the truck at $29, but be happy since down here no one can get one.

19yo? never seen it. Unobtanium. Best I can do...someone comes through with $500 I would sell my PVW 15. Probably

BTW...try the Oban 18 some time. Very different but still great. it's not the 14 on steroids.

I just paid $42 for a 1.75L of Antique 107.

Anyone ever tried Beau's Lug Tread? Man oh man, that is some good beer. Not very cheap though.

And also Brooklyn brewery Sorachi Ace. Tasty. That was my celebration after mediation training.

Picked up a 6 of Westbrook Brewing Co.'s Gose last night and it is rather delicious. For those wondering, its a sour wheat beer brewed with salt and coriander. Definitely an interesting flavor, but very light and nice for sitting out on the porch.

if that tastes only 0.1% as nasty as the description, it will still be awful.

will pass on that one.

Rough short week for me, too. On the way home I stopped at a local place and had a Pretty Things Meadowlark IPA. Mrs. Shovel and I sat on the back porch and I finished up a 22 of Lagunitas.
