After stopping quickly on our way to Granger on Friday, I had to make a 2nd trip to town on Saturday for more. They had a bottle of Elmer T. Lee as well, but had already promised it to someone else so wouldn’t sell it to me.

    1st trip:



    2nd trip:

      Not at all, but I haggled with them and got them to come down a bit. Some bottles were fair, others were completely outrageous. I refused to buy a few of their bottles because they were ridiculous. They wanted $180 for a 1.75L of Eagle Rare.

        I might just have been tempted to buy that (stressing the word might). The look of that bottle alone is just awesome and I have seen way more little ones than the big ones.

          I’d be lying if I said I didn’t consider it, briefly.

                        Do not pass up a bottle if you see it on the shelf.

                          Found this bottle in Beaumont yesterday for $39. Felt like a steal.

                            No pic, but I had a glass of Eagle Rare last night. I've had the bottle for several years now and only break it out on special occasions. Gosh I wish that stuff could be found more easily!

                              Scoreboard. The end-all, be-all of rare finds on a shelf. Yes, I really found it in a store on a shelf, and NO I will not share where. I was pretty excited, I have to admit.

                              Just goes to show you never know where you will find good bottles out there.
