Posted July 3, 2019 My concern is that there may be a shortage of used bourbon barrels to age my Scotch. 😰 However I have lately been discovering Rye Whiskey. Here in CO there’s Tin Cup. This year I found a TX rye with hints of tobacco & jalapeño. 😊 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 3, 2019 I see a price increase in Jim Beam. Glad that's not my favorite. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 3, 2019 They have 3.3 million barrels in storage. They lost 45,000. There won’t be a shortage or a price increase. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 4, 2019 I heard a report that they said this little loss (45k is a little?) will not affect the supply. I haven’t heard about price. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 4, 2019 They should have thrown some ice in with the water they poured on the place. Now I am going to have to use the good stuff on my cuts. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) Back in my drinking days, when I had the funds to get the good stuff, I would get me some Skyy vodka or Crown Royal. Proud to say that I now am 6 years sober. As AC/DC would say have a drink on me. Where can I set up the tab for you. LOL!!! Edited July 6, 2019 by HitmanAce wrong spelling 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 7, 2019 There's plenty of good stuff made right here in CO: Stranahans, Tin Cup, 291, etc. Buy local! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 14, 2019 Right What is the URL of a photo on your iPhone or Windows machine if you don’t have a webpage? I’m trying to paste an image copied into my clipboard into a post. The post looks right up until I hit SUBMT. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would click on "choose files", select the file on my computer only to get the popup box saying that "You are only allowed to upload 30.72kb." I had downloaded the image onto my desktop, resized it and then tried to upload it. I resized it down to 25kb and it still wouldn't go. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
