And yes, it is ILLEGAL for any of ya'll to attempt to ship us any booze across the border. (Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)Īs to the different competing stores, you "lucky bastard," up here all the liquor stores are run by the one big Provincial Government and those powers-that-be do all the deciding on what us lowly masses can have access to. The difference being, with the scope issue that grants one the automatic 'blame' point for their previous misses. And I appreciate the analogy of the scope comparison. It's always just a small section of the store, and we're the only ones we know who frequent that section, around here. Could not believe how packed the place was, and even more surprised as to how popular the Bourbon is around here. "Fine & Rare Bourbon Release" relatively close to home here. I don't know what this offering is like in comparison to what ya'll have access to/on hand regularly, but up here this is a RARE event (first time ever) and it was advertised as: We were able to walk away with a bottle of Stagg Jr E.H. There were 240 Bottles of Eagle Rare Single Barrel for $57.99 There were 66 bottles of 1792 Single Barrel for $80.18 There were 6 bottles of WL Weller for $165.00 There were 6 bottles of Old Rip Van Winkle 10 y/o for $129.99 There were 3 bottles of Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve, 15 y/o, for $199.99 Tickets were handed out from 9:00 am to 9:30 am, and the draw started at 9:35 am. There was ~500 people in attendance, each one received ONE (1) ticket and a stamp on the hand upon entry. First ever to be had in Manitoba, that is. Well, myself and My Lady were at the first ever Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon raffle today.
