One of the best ryes available. Bargain pricing and rubbish packaging, but incredible stuff.After trying a couple of pours of this at the @Seeking Alpha Social Club meetup (courtesy of @joeyshin ), I had to get a bottle. Luckily it was in stock at my local store. Even @Rbonus012 was a fan, and he doesn’t like the hard stuff lol.

This one is one of the most unique pours that I've ever had in my life. I can't find it around here.
Be careful, it sneaks up on you. I really like it. Next thing you know, I found myself looking up my basement stairs thinking, "self....there's less than a 50% chance you make it up there." The smarter me won out and I laid down on the floor.The high proof stuff is normally not my thing, but this one was different.

Yeah--it drinks waaaaay below its weight, proof-wise. Not hot like other high-proofers. But if you're not careful, it can catch up to you fast.The high proof stuff is normally not my thing, but this one was different.

I still have one more bottle of batch 2 hiding in the back of the cabinet.
Don't every apologize my friend. You ROCK!!Next year I promise to bring some heavy hitters. Sorry I use your meetup to unload my shelves. Lol
Do they state the batch somewhere?
I’ve read that each batch so far has been a different proof…kinda like Stagg Jr. does. All three bottles I’ve had were 66% and I remember reading that was the second release. Batch 3 is 63.7%.Do they state the batch somewhere?

I have someone working for me now. I have a full time job so can't be there on delivery days most the time. I have my retired mother in law going to the local shops and standing in line on delivery days to see what allocated bottles they get in.
Top 5 bottle...Gonna finish this sample of willet 4 year rye. May have to get a bottle.

There is still a tiny amount of batch A121 floating around the Portland stores (I just picked up 2). Complete shutout of either A122 or B522 though. Oregon distribution is strange, lol.
