You and me both.
Wifey brought me home a bottle of Early Times, as the grocery store she was at had no EWB, and I just wanted a cheap pour to keep me from polishing off my better bottles before I head out of state for vacation.
The ET starts off as not-so-bad, a little sweet, a lot bland... but it's not 'bad' until the finish. Pure alcohol... kinda what I imagine when I hear people joke about 'brown vodka'. But what the hell, I was curious as to what it was all about, and now I know. The only other 80 proofer I've had is Benchmark, and it was MUCH more interesting and just plain better.
I will close the night out with a healthy pour of OGD BIB however, to end on a much higher note.

And, then again, maybe Squire knows something about bourbon. Like, OGD BIB is ground zero of bourbondom.......... something I have said for years. You go out from OGD BIB, not necessarily up.

You can get Very Old Barton 100 Proof for about $13.95, and I have to say it's one of the best sub 20 bourbons available. That being said, most of the stuff on the bottom, bottom shelf is pretty rotten
More OGD 114 tonight. Boy it's good stuff.
