Voltron Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Thanks for the quick reply Scott. I guess I gotta have one bourbon (EC18) and one Rye (HH). I wonder if I should go 2010 or 2011 on the HH? Not sure if I am too late, Raffy, but the 2011 HH is better than 2010, and the EC18 would be the first choice for me, then 4 Roses then brandy or grand cru--can't recall the difference atm.

Thanks Al, you're not late yet; the guy I'm trading with still has to take home the bottles from storage. Thanks for the tip, now leaning towards HH 11 or 4 Roses for the 2nd bottle. EC 18 is already a lock for the first bottle I'm getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Just a reminder guys, the futures go up for sale tomorrow at 8 a.m. Pacific/10 a.m. Central/11 a.m. Eastern. I think I'll go for Rebel Yell, Old Fitz, and Bernheim. I personally still need to message one of the Cali guys for trustee help. I think we have until November or something crazy to get the shipping/pickup address finalized so there's not much rush for that to get sorted out.

The Monkey Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Do I need to have a shipping address ready to go at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Do I need to have a shipping address ready to go at this point? No, shouldn't. I marked mine as in-person pickup for now. They will let us change shipping information through the beginning of November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) 6 x Aged in Elijah Craig® 12 Year Barrels 2 x Aged in Evan Williams® Single Barrels 6 x Aged in Rittenhouse® Rye Barrels 6 x Aged in Old Fitzgerald® Bourbon Barrels Thanks to JP for the reminder, but 2 were sold out, then i could have had 5 EW but there was some address issue, so by the time I could lock in there were only 2 left! I can get them from City Beer eventually, but it is good to have futures as the base. Edited April 16, 2012 by Voltron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrion Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 4 each of everything but the Rebel Yell, which was sold out. Thanks to raffy for reminding me as I was getting ready to leave for a client meeting. I grabbed my iPad and ordered in the car. I'm thinking of going back for 2 more of the three which are still available.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naamanf Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Also picked up 4 of each with the iPad in the car. Wonder why the Rebel Yell was so popular? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymad Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I am wondering with the three left (@2:45pm) if they are not as popular or they are releasing more futures for those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absorbine_Sr Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Late to the game but I ordered a couple of EC's and a couple of Rittenhouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I got 3 of each of the 4 available when I ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrion Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Ordered 2 more each of the remaining four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted April 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Wonder why the Rebel Yell was so popular? I think it's because Rebel was the most limited. 6 bottles/person and only available through futures. Lots of traders/eBayers will likely use this limited availability to their advantage once the bottles are ready to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
