I don't think this one is single barrel.

This is a perfectly fine rye. The 1776 bourbon is fine too.

Pikesville is a barely rye. Great if you can get it around $45 or less.

The Old Forester 100 is a great value. It’s fine neat, but I mostly use it for cocktails.

I love Elijah Craig bourbon, but the rye isn’t special.

Knob Creek rye is great. The 115 proof store picks are even better.

Old Overholt and Rittenhouse are great value ryes as well.

I picked up this store pick. I heard they got bought out, and the juice is most likely changing. Everyone in the store group raves about it.

I really need to open mine. I imagine it’s a great pour for Autumn.

No I have the old pepper rye single barrel not the 1776

I had a feeling that's the one he was referring to. Different distillery.

Thanks for the list! I thought I had seen pics of the Old Overholt on here or in the cocktail thread. That one was only $18. so great bargain I suppose. But it was a lower proof, so I passed on it this time.

Same distillery. I have barrel proof on both.

You want Old Overholt Bottled in Bond. Great in an old fashioned

Give me time... I'm learning!

No same distillery. the 1776 is blended, the old pepper is single barrel

old overholt 114 is the way togo for old fashions

Been looking for a 6th floor 4Roses. No dice so far.

 

[wolfpack]

Had some Frey ranch bourbon and rye while in vegas. both pretty good, the rye a real easy drinker

 

[Irish]

Came home after a shitty day to end an even shittier week to find one of my Denver & Liely glasses thrown in the sink with shit piled on top. Broken.

So tonight's pour was a quadruple, and it won't be my last. Happy fryday all

 

[BruceWayne]

Precisely

Mine is pure s'mores w/ spice... nose and palate

Absolutely love it

 

[Indyscammer]

Haven't visited this bottle in a long while. Been open a year now maybe more. It is way better than I remember. Happy Fryeday!

The Old Overholt 114 is pretty good as well.

 

[Big Jilm]

Happy Fryeday all!

2nd Fryeday pour is some cask strength 17 year 110.2 proof Canadian rye. Oddly light in color for it's age I suppose, but pretty damn good. I would say not a great value at $130 though

Not with Alberta Premium at $65.

3rd and final Fryeday pour. Omnomnomnomnom deliciousness. Best Old Fashioned rye evar and one of the best straight up too. At least, the best Canadian Rye I've ever had, easy!

Funny because I had that pic taken and was enjoying it already. Pic took forever to load. Hahaha

 

[Big Jilm]

Had to go miniature old fashioned. Delicious. Obviously a small pour of Alberta, 3 drops of Bittercube Trinity bitters, ice and some Fabbri Amarena cherries

I like this way of thinking. The KISS method.
