Found a new, tucked away in plain sight liquor store and they have handles of Old Charter 8 for $18.99 so I picked up 2. It's the old label with a clock face. I find it a little oakier not as clean as the current iteration and perhaps the viscosity is thinner, nothing off about it, it's still very drinkable. My other, normal liquor store I'm digging around and there are 2 bottles of EW 1783 small batch 750s tucked behind the normal 1783. I have the counter person scan it and it's the same price as normal 1783, I point out the difference but the counter says they are the same so I pick them up. I haven't seen these before maybe it is just a new label/package with a fancy closure? These are bunker'd until I find out more about them.
For comparison, tasting, sipping and investigating possible {Short Stack} bunkering brands I picked up the following bottom shelf 750s; Ancient Age, McAfees Benchmark 8 and Early Times. Not disappointed in these at all. They're not great, they're not bad, they're different.
Brown Party Liquor? Yesss Sir!
