Ftfy. Enjoy your stay.

Mike are you going back Saturday night or Sunday?

Happy birfday Ed!

I stand corrected then .

I've seen emelius drunk. It's quite a sight to behold and I imagine only happens once a year when a certain lord shows up in Indiana.

^And I'm still trying to get you legitimately drunk. Though I think we were close that one time in Mike Sr's garage with Sazerac 18 and Jacob's cigars.^

I was looking to get drunk. And succeeded.

Yay Stephen! Happy birfday .

Well I enjoyed Mike Sr.'s Ardbeg 10 so much that I had to get one myself. Need some Oogie fairly soon too.

This winter straight up BLOWS. Stay safe everyone.

Happy birthday Jeff!

About to see Neutral Milk Hotel at the Riv in Chicago. I basically know nothing about this group - definitely one of Allison's picks.

Laddie 10 is on my shortlist for easier-to-find bottles that I need to get, along with Bunnahabhain 12. Shelly - just curious if you have any opinion on Bunnie 18 compared to Bunnie 12?

Sometimes I think I should just stick with the dog. At least he likes to sleep when I do.

Yeah you're probably better off paying half that much for something from Islay.

Todd - here's a decent review from a well-informed Belgian:

Short follow-up on this - I decided to call the Binny's that had it in stock, and sure enough they've sold more than half of the bottles they had just 2 weeks ago. So I put one on hold @ $89.99. I'm checking if Jeff's store still has any in case it would be cheaper, but I don't want to miss out on a bottle since it got Mikey's approval and is getting crazy good reviews online.

Just some outlandish investment. No way anyone's opening those.

I see both sides and can't really debate. It's just such a shame for PSH, his family, and anyone who ever appreciated any of his work.

HP18 is around $130 with tax in my area. I just don't have enough interest and it would seriously put a dent in my plans for other bottles I was to try more. How's the 15 big bro?

He was sun basking the other day.

Thanks Al, you too! Maybe some whiskey to help the cold?

About to see Neko Case in Indianapolis.

I think Hakushu is easily better than Yamazaki. The peated version is a tad pricey but I'd go for it.

^ That's awesome. Every small town should have a store like that.
