Glad you enjoy it. I'd rather have their 8 yr bourbon or BiB neat over this.

I like the slightly larger cans because the pour nicely into a pint glass. Can't say I've noticed much if any difference between cans and bottles.

@TheBarleyLads that's great to hear. I bought a pack of the 14.9 0z can. I'll be making a video of it when I have it sometime on birthday week.

It's my go-to for Irish red ale, too.

We posted this before that was a thing lol. Glad I have a healthy stock since there's a shortage. Thanks for watching!

Appreciate the comment. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! We still monitor it and have some plans brewing. Bring a parent kinda slowed down our output.

Had the pleasure of visiting in 2018. I personally was very impressed by Beamish in Cork.

Honestly at this point IDK how limited it is. It's been out for probably 2 years now and doesn't seem to be going away. Not that I'm mad about that. I think it's better than Original and Red Bush.

Ohio put it on sale for $9.99 before Christmas. I bought 6 myself but gave 4 away as gifts. Amazing deals! Thanks for watching.

It's another bad whiskey in a fancy shaped bottle.

Yeah that's definitely not true.

Hope you enjoy it! They also make a really good single malt worth looking out for.

IDK if he's reading UA-cam shorts comments for 30 second beer reviews...

Banquet all day lol

Thanks for sharing! It's a fairly underwhelming bottle for the age but it's also relatively cheap compared to most 12 years old Scotch

@@TheBarleyLads Yeah I agree there's not a lot of complexity to it. Just the same I didn't expect that there would be. I just found it weird how it seemed (to me) to change for the better so quickly after introduction to a little air exposure. The flavor profile is indeed simple but I like simple sometimes...

Really? What state?

In terms of macro American lagers, PBR is great. I would choose this over Budweiser, Coors Banquet or Miller High Life. And it's hard to beat the price you typically find it for an any bar.

Agreed! Hard to find value anymore in Scotch and Irish. Apolitical take- the last time we had massive tariffs, prices spiked on foreign whiskey, so stock up on your favorites.

Absolutely did! Appalachia has many. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

Haven't tasted them against each other, but I'd say it's in the same realm of standard Green Spot. Lighter fruit notes, subtle but tasty palate. Whereas Redbreast is much more rich, dark fruits. For the price, Redbreast all day, everyday.

Thanks for watching!

Absolutely! I've don't recall experiencing that rather off-putting note with any products from Wild Turkey (except 1 Russell's single barrel), Old Forester, or Elijah Craig. I feel like it shows up more in younger products. But it very common in rye as you mentioned. What wheated bourbon did you try that you picked up that taste?

@@TheBarleyLads Makers 46. I've found that note in ER10 and Basil Hayden... The exceptions EH Taylor and Weller's

We were staying in a fairly rustic cabin 🤷🏻

@@TheBarleyLads Fair enough.👍🏼

Thanks for watching! To call it straight bourbon, it's a minimum two years aging in a barrel. But between 2 and 4 years, it must state the minimum aging time. So for example, Ancient Ancient Age from Buffalo Trace states on the neck it's minimum age of 36 months. Beyond 4 years you can just say straight bourbon without an age statement listed. And it can be any proof 80 or above. For Bottled in Bond, you're correct that it needs to be at least 4 years old. But it also has to be all grain distilled in a single season at a single distillery aged in a government bonded warehouse. You can blend barrels from the same season together but you can't blend in older or younger barrels. And it must be bottled at 100 proof. Among other stipulations.

Thanks for watching!

Each batch is going to be a little different because they're usually aged different lengths of time and they're master blender likes for them to be unique on their own. But I've tasted multiple matches and haven't been disappointed. Compared to EW BiB, this will tend to be sweeter because of the Lincoln County Process. Plus it's probably aged at least twice as long, giving it more time to pull sugars out of the wood.

It's a great pour. Thanks as always for watching!

Appreciate you following along!

Same proof but certainly a more intense, deep flavor

It's a pass for me. For a cheap rye, check out Old Forester Rye.

That's an incredible price!

But what do you think of the bourbon?

@@TheBarleyLads It looks like he has already tasted too many of it... EW SB is very good especially at this price. It can be considered a serious competitor to many brands that cost twice as much.

Sadly now that it's a Kentucky-only release, they've jacked up the price as well. Last time I was down there the cheapest I could find out for was $45, no longer making it the steal it was.

Thanks for watching! The majority of Irish whiskey and Scotch (and aged rum) are aged in used bourbon barrels because they're plentiful and cheap compared to building new oak barrels or sourcing wine/fortified wine casks. Even some Green Spot is aged in bourbon barrels while some is aged in sherry casks before blending. As for this whiskey, Prohibition is great for the price. I appreciate the higher abv because, as you said, it's a youthful spirit and it needs the proof. Otherwise it would probably be a pretty flat experience. And Michter's American is a phenomenal whiskey! Highly underrated and almost in a category on its own.

Not everyone can be so blessed 😂

If you can find it, they make at Cognac finished Knappogue 12 and it's phenomenal. I'll agree that in comparison, the regular 12 is fairly bland as it's only aged in used bourbon
