Local store has a bottle of Angel's Envy Cask Strength chilling on the top shelf. Not sure which year. Black box I believe so 2015 maybe?
Has anyone tried this? The price point is higher than most of the MSRPs on the BTAC bottles. So I guess there's a reason it's still on the shelf.
Just curious which burbaws have tried it and thoughts on it

Havent tried the 15 yet. The 13 I have is great...I have some 14s but not open but heard it was a step down from the 13. I have heard the 15 is more in line with the 13. I think MSRP for those is in the 150-200 range.

I heard the 14 was heavy heavy Port in the finishing taste. I also heard and read that the 13 was good. Not much on the 15. But for the 200.00+ the local store is asking for it, I am DEFINITELY passing. Supposedly that can get me a bottle of OFBB...but I still can't find it at or near that price

Yeah I'd pass on that. I've heard the same as others on here. Basically '13 > '15 > '14 on the releases. I'm not a huge port guy myself but I did enjoy '13 and really didn't care much for the '14. It's sitting at $175 down here in south florida but i'm in no rush to buy and try.

Need some help from the WBS crew. Went into a store i hadn't been in a while and snagged a Bowman 2013 Gingerbread Beer bottle. Anyone have any reviews on this? I know it's a 2013 release but haven't heard much on it. They also had three other bottles i was eyeing up. One was a Smooth Ambler Old Scout 10, Pinhook (2015) and the Woodford Reserve Master's (2015). Out of the three the Pinhook was the most intriguing though.

We saw a 1/2 pallet in the warehouse rack that night. No idea howmuch they have left now, but you know what you are getting at that price point...

The lighting makes it look like that bottle is filled with RC Cola or Maple syrup
