What age?
I was able to taste 4 different ages. 10/12/20/23 The 23 is on a complete different level from the 10/12 and noticeably better than the 20. Of course finding a bottle of the 23 is like finding a unicorn. I wish the the best of luck in your ventures. ![]()

Can't help with the hunt. But the hysteria over Pappy is somewhat crazy with people seemingly willing to pay any amount (not saying you are). To that end, my daughter who lives in Louisville was at a bar called Meta last year and, as an antidote to the hysteria, they take their allotment of Pappy and make Jello-shots out of it

the past two years I have been able to get a bottle of 23 years at msrp-
I always sell it off to buy cheaper bourbon like Stagg JR or similar. the $2K plus they fetch just isn't worth me keeping them. good luck with your hunt.

When I see the prices for Pappy, it makes me glad I am a beer drinker. I have had a few different bourbons over the years. I have never once said wow, that is great. I need to spend a ton of money to get some of the good stuff. I feel the same way about wine.
I will pay for a Chimay on occasion, or a 12 pack of Erdinger Dunkle, my favorite. It is miles away from the price of good bourbon. We toured the Maker's Mark distillery a couple of years ago. We were served some samples from the "white lightning" variety to their top of the line aged good stuff. It was good, but not worth the money to my wallet. But that is just me. ![]()

It is obscene to pay 2k for a bottle of hooch.

This is a bourbon thread, maybe Wild Turkey 101. A fine return on investment in my opinion.

The finest beer, wine, bourbon, scotch, etc. All are just booze.

But the worst stuff isn't fit to clean paint brushes.

Zero doubt. A real beer lover will like an Erdinger Dunkle. If the drinker is some college kid that thinks Coors Light or Natty Light is perfect, well that is not a beer lover, that is just a ethanol lover.
I can appreciate a good bourbon, but I just can't see spending the large money for it. But I feel that way about all forms of alcohol EXCEPT beer. I like beer. Burp. I love Erdinger Dunkle.

I’ve had various forms of Erdinger but not dunkle. To the liquor store!
I’ve been on a kick with Weihenstephaner Hefeweisbeir Dunkel. Good stuff but in pint singles it gets expensive fast!

So what did you think if the Erdinger? I still think of it as a favorite.

Honestly I looked but then forgot about it. I'll try again, seems like they bring more of the dark German stuff out when it's fall.
