[@jaredthomas1809]

These blinds with trying to guess the price are honestly one of my favorites, great job

[@ncdorito213]

Rebecca did a fantastic job. Love the split on low/budget, mid, and premium/allocated.

[@MrWayneJohn1]

I'm really loving this format. Thanks to Mom for the totally random picks. It just proves how well budget bourbons can compare/compete with over-priced juice.

[@Defx10]

OGD BIB is testament to why I'm just not willing to spend more than $70 on a bottle anymore. There's too much value in the middle. Most of my favorite sippers are in the $40 price range.

[@ChristopherNeeme]

That's why I am a big fan of new entries in the market trying to compete at that price or even lower while elevating the quality compared to what's been there in the past. Companies who do that are much more likely to get people to try something new as well as repeat buy. The new Jim Beam, Benchmark and Green River show that among others in the last couple of years.

[@nathanjackson8356]

You're not wrong but it's not to say particular qualities in a higher priced bottle are not worth it to someone else.

[@sharthun2009]

I am in your camp 100%.

[@davidteller7681]

I love it when "Mom" picks the bottles!

[@Lithanify]

yeah, It feels less mean spirited than when they pour fireball for each other in a blind.

[@williamcornelison4721]

Thanks to you two, I have several Bourbons and Rye Whiskeys in my small bar to choose from for an evening pour (neat). My wife has martinis that she enjoys having me make for her.... And think that before Covid I really didn't have a bar. But I started watching bar videos starting with yours and can now entertain family and friends. I watch fishing , cooking and hunting videos also. I'm 76 years old and still enjoying all of life...

[@blakestah]

Trenton is sleeping outside.

[@JohnClark-rq4hf]

How about doing this with Irish whiskey

[@ps138vs2cavi]

Closest without going over is not the best way. It should be closest period. If someone is one over and the other is 20 behind, who guessed better?

[@schwisow9688]

i agree with this!

[@motohead077]

Yes! Also, they should not know what the other's guess is. Should just right it down. That way, you have to guess as close as you can to the price. Otherwise your guess is just based on strategy, so the 1st person should always guess low, as to not go over & the 2nd player either guesses 1 penny higher or lower.. But if they want to guess outloud, you have to alternate on who goes 1st, as whoever guesses 2nd has a huge advantage.

[@toymachine2328]

Then Kurt's perfect recreation of the price is right theme wouldn't make any sense

[@JohnKay79]

OGD is highly under rated. OGD 114 IS WHERE ITS AT. That will beat more than it should in a blind....

[@donmorton3954]

I like this series. BIB rules! I will have to celebrate and drink some tonight! Thanks for the shout out too. Great job Rebecca!

[@MrHunterbuchanan]

I'm absolutely loving this series! I would recommend both of you writing your scores and locking in before revealing. It's more fun when you're not influencing each other and just going off the taste.

[@heywardcampbell5721]

Good Video! OGD is a testament to good inexpensive whiskey still being available. Thanks!

[@honker1307]

Phenomenal show, thanks Mom for the great picks. Love that a budget bourbon got that much love!!!!

[@miker672]

Definitely want to see more of these videos! And props to mom! Good picks. I kinda like her picking out the bottles all on her own instead of getting recommendations. Then it truly is a complete blind since she isn't well versed in the bottles. With that being said, she did a fantastic job!

[@bhalli95]

Great job on these picks Rebecca, love these videos! For the next one I think picking Old Grand Dad 114 (to see if it does better or worse than their guesses for the bottled in bond) would be an awesome idea. For the other two: Maker's Mark 46 Cask Strength since it's done so well in other blinds, and maybe something pricier like a Jack Daniels 10 year? Look forward to whatever you choose!

[@NRHR8735]

Just goes to show you, OGD BIB is one of the best values in bourbon!

[@audieconrad8995]

Ya man, it's at the front of my shelf. Makes a killer Manhattan.

[@berkeleythompson]

One of my favorite bourbons and stays on my bar.

[@permanentfitness1919]

Absolutely- I keep that & the 114 in the cabinet at all times. Outstanding bourbon for the $.

[@AFreeLanceGamer]

Love the new format! Only thing I'd change is revealing who is right after each pour and keeping a tally. I think seeing y'all know your place in the contest and how that changes your performance in the contest is super entertaining in the T.V. gameshow sense. Cheers to helping folks not waste their money on overpriced pours in bad economic times and highlighting the "bang for your buck" pours! Thanks for attending my T.E.D. Talk.

[@mikemattis1204]

It truly looked like Kurt wanted to reach over and swat Trent in the back of the head when he started eating the pretzels while he was signing off !!!

[@slottedpig2253]

I honestly really enjoyed this video. Was fun to watch, informative on how these bottle stacked up in only opinions without even know what it is, and just overall entertaining.

[@stevepylant2208]

Love the "Price is Right" videos. Keep 'em coming, please. Idea for the next one, stay with one distillary and have a bargain pour, mid tier and top shelf pour. Example, BT series, Benchmark Full Proof, Blantons and a BTAC pour. Or some other similar line up from another single distillary. Just an idea. But love the videos! Thanks for all you do!!

[@taserface6167]

Love this video! Super fun… can’t wait till the next 1!

[@pieratorres4000]

I love these blinds. So fun. Please continue this great game !!!

[@mistermom310]

Now I'm looking for an OGD Bonded. Fun video and informative...thank you all🥃

[@kngbllr805]

😂😂 the pretzel... Great picks Mom! You could do a "10 year blind". Something like McKenna 10 year, Eagle Rare 10, and Jack Daniels 10 year

[@danstaebell2381]

I really like this format and competition. Great idea Kurt and Trenton .

[@michaelhooper7656]

Love the blind pricing. Great idea moving forward

[@djd2819]

Gimmicky AF but because it's these two guys, it works. Love it!

[@jaronwalling6973]

This video is a “testament” to how overpriced bourbon has become.

[@buckbryant8599]

Agreed

[@svt32vdohc]

Yep. I'm done paying for expensive bottles because the labels are cool or the internet says buy it. I'm buying what I like. Buffalo Trace $27.99. Eagle Rare at retail, $36.99. Found 4 bottles over 4 months at retail at a grocery store. That's done though. Haven't had it and they removed the barcode/label off the shelf.

[@jsaun6684]

​@@svt32vdohcI'll stick with Old Forester 100 as a go to bottle. Certainly packs in a ton of flavor and is easy on the wallet

[@stevenprobst4917]

@@buckbryant8599 I was thinking the very same thing!

[@berkeleythompson]

100%!

[@DiegoG.whiskey]

Good video ! it's nice to have some cheaper ones and expensive ones. That was a fun video

[@Matt_Bykowski]

Great video, love this format. Thanks for another fun one.

[@williamcornelison4721]

Well tonight I had some Old Grand Dad Bottle and Bond neat...... and yes it is really nice. Thanks for the Tip..

[@michaelmadigan8456]

Loving this format

[@stevenforetich5501]

Trenton: "I got this its $20 and wild Turkey Product!" You sure about that? Trenton: "Uhm" lol

[@bigdave2952]

Too funny, love this format!

[@bdatwood76]

should've done the slow chew!! LOL great video gents!

[@borgcutus5780]

Love the "Price is Right" videos. Great, varied lineup this time. Makes me want to run out and grab an OGD BiB like now...

[@djscorza9660]

You mentioned maybe your favorite pretzels. Remember Barb’s bourbon pretzels from last years meet up? I love when she makes them for me. I can watch your videos, have a dram, and munch on Clancys bourbon pretzels!

[@zaccross213]

Awesome video guys! I love the price is right concept. I think next time, set up a row of 10-15 bourbons of either high or low price and have mom pick from those, so you guys have a ballpark to try from. You could do a budget price-is-right or a unicorn one!

[@Brad-ic4bp]

I keep a bottle of Old Grandad Bonded on the shelf for cocktails (great in a Paper Airplane), but I don’t remember trying it neat. Now I’m curious.

[@michaelrodgers940]

Sipping on a OGD BiB Old Fashioned right now, and it’s on sale for 19.99 at my local store so I guess I’ll have to go get myself a couple of backups 👌

[@jrnegron3127]

Love these "Price is Right" blinds!!

[@RockulaRandy]

Love this game! Keep them coming!!! 👍

[@jordanchambers5684]

These videos are phenomenal. Huge Price is Right fan here so this is the blend of two of my favorite things. A few wild cards to throw in the next one could be Benchmark Full Proof, Bulleit 12yr Rye, and Ancient Ancient Age 10 Star.

[@josephvalerio6665]

Shows you how much A BRAND influences value

[@sagmeister2234]

I love this series. Love the reactions on the reveal. My own included!

[@TheWhiskyWizard]

While I enjoy this video, you guys shouldn't be concerned with going over, just whoever is closer. No need to stick to the price is right format. Love the content!

[@1stkazoo754]

Absolute roller coaster of an episode!

[@matthewb5680]

I bought both those Ol'New Riffs too. I can't wait to go pick them up and try them!

[@Robert.Sheard]

I've never had the OGD Bonded. We get the 114 here, but not the Bonded for some reason. Kurt trolling Rebecca with the schnozzz story 😂

[@williamcornelison4721]

Had to take my wife to get her hair done. And while I waited I walked over the the grocery store and got me a $22.00 bottle of Old Grand Dad bottled and bond....... Price is Right!!!!!!!!!!! Back home now and finishing this great video. Thanks Guys....

[@BeachSandBourbon]

Love the Concept. Enjoy watching

[@bmc2567]

Gotta have a tie breaker at least! It was a great blind. Well done “Mom”!! Rebecca… thoughts on some bottles… Old Forester 100, Jim Beam 7yr, Barrel Bourbon Seagrass for a wild card.

[@nickp5511]

Fun video! Enjoy the outdoor snooze tonight:)

[@schwisow9688]

I really like this idea of doing almost a gameshow aspect for blinds. If u guys do another one, it would be better to keep the price guess written down or blind as well to keep any bias from the other's guess. Then u tell each other the prices at the end after u have written them down. Another fun one would be like an O/U betting line. You have 4-5 glasses and someone sets a price and Kurt and Trenton need to guess over/under the actual value of the bottle. I loved how the OGD u both picked close to $70 and its only a $25 bottle. Shows how underrated it is and I know Trenton likes the ryes and that has a high rye mash bill.

[@mikewilson4952]

You guys should do this on a points system. Closest to price gets 1 point (if both are over) Closest to price gets 2 points (if at least one is under) Exact price guess gets 5 points Also need to write guesses down to not influence each other Enjoying these videos

[@russellh1498]

I think this is the perfect series, it gives us a good perspective on what a whiskey at first visit really is worth. Perfect example is how Old Grand Dad was perceived as so much higher in quality than the other two for its actual price point. And, its fun!

[@berkeleythompson]

Same with JTS Brown BiB. So underrated but absolutely delicious. Goes to show that price doesn’t equal quality.

[@jw-lk1pe]

Let me tell you a story from today about price. In Nashville and just went to Whiskey River Saloon. I ordered a Weller Single Barrel and neglected to notice the price. Bartender climbed a ladder and walked across bar to reach the top shelf....All the while I was ignorant.....$145 for one ounce. Embarrassed of my idiocy, I slunk back to my table with booze in hand. I drank it...very slowly......I expected some kind of magic to happen. It did not. Price is not correlated to quality in the whiskey world. Now I just feel stupid

[@sadhuminstrels]

Genuinely fun and educational.

[@pal8h]

Love the concept but i think you should go with whoever is closest, even if i the prediction goes over. That seems more fair.

[@bearsmouth5722]

I picked up both old new riffs last week but haven't cracked them open yet also picked the sour mash cask strength going to be a good weekend breaking into these

[@jonhohgrefe1437]

Love the game. I think not saying the prices until the end would be best. I also like the idea of bonus points for distillery and product.

[@WigWagWorkshop]

Really enjoy these! A lot of fun.

[@craigthomas540]

Alot of fun, keep doing these

[@brentsilva6406]

Best game ever. Do more please. Lol

[@jamiebrandon8475]

Just tried Buffalo Trace Traveller whiskey today. The liquor store required that I buy it in order to buy a bottle of Blantons. I’m so glad they did! It’s delicious!!!

[@michaelbland7666]

Yall need to try copper and kings. I got a bottle yesterday and it’s just amazing. It’s a 3 bourbon blend. 15 year heaven hills 15 and 10 year Bardstown. Finished in a apple brandy barrel.

[@jeffnuzz]

Funny how Kurt said, "Lucky, if you're Lucky" right before the Lucky Seven popped up ...clairvoyant? 😅

[@johnf.kennedy5454]

I received my SLB shirt yesterday! I can't wait to wear it. I plan on wearing it the next time I visit Glenns Creek Distillery. Thanks!

[@borgcutus5780]

Yes to favorite bar snacks too!

[@wkffchameleons]

Best bar snacks would be awesome. If you can pair it as well that would be a great episode.

[@DaveNorton-yi5ix]

The paper towel thing is why I watch these ... fun video today, guys.

[@The.Whiskey.Thief_]

Great blind! Next one: four roses limited edition. Michters 10 year rye. Makers mark cask strength.

[@battiekoda]

Bar snacks!!!!! Heck yes! 😃 (I love me something pickled.....)

[@neilpowell1641]

i love these because it shows even experts really can be stymied by whisky!

[@francisrizzo1529]

Great choices today! Next blind: Cooper's Craft 100, 1792 Single Barrel, and Russell's Reserve 13 year.

[@baconator1550]

Its difficult to drink with y’all this early in the morning. But I gotta do it

[@kevinfoster2246]

great show concept!!!!

[@motohead077]

Nice win OGD! You should just do these type of vids with the intent to give your opinion on what the current price is or give 2 guesses; 1 being what you think the price is, & the 2nd being what you think it is really worth or what you would be happy to pay for it. Otherwise it's just more of a competition between you 2 & your guess does not best reflect what you really think of the whiskey. To do this, just write down your guess so the other person does not know. Also, have no penalty for guessing over. Closest guess wins, period.

[@DemonbreedGaming]

daaaaaaaamn kurt shot fires with that comment about him not liking it before hahahaha

[@mattd5762]

Trenton and Kurton know mom was on her game today!

[@drv2747]

Love this series should make a slight modification to just the closest one pricewise in general over under doesn’t matter

[@robertschroeder1978]

Great Job - Mom, Perhaps a good Peated Scotch Blind for Trenton to enjoy. Bar snacks would be interesting...

[@MarkTraveler85697]

I appreciate this channel so much 🙂

[@ronsmith7807]

Yeah bump a bunch of even. I wanna see Trenton sleeping outside hugging his teddy. Ya'll awesome. Get to Sioux Falls and stop screwing around. lol. All due respect!.

[@pedrosalbanes4516]

I like new badge for each pick. Should line them up as they progress through the blind. Nice job.

[@MostlyUnreadArmchairExpert]

So many times I wanted to say “1 dollar, Bob!”

[@Killernuma123]

It should be closest to the actual price period, not closest without going over. That removes any shenanigans with trying to guess lower or higher than the other person. You're trying to artificially remove that at present even though the rules incentivize it.

[@BrewinSTL]

Bar snack video would be great!

[@markjamison6395]

Can I suggest a blind between Old Tub vs WT 101 vs Fighting Cock vs Evan Williams BiB?

[@JayAlsman]

I’m also in NWI… what liquor store is it that the Harry you guys speak of often, is owner/manager of? Thanks!

[@williamumbach592]

I would love to see a distillery review episode with several of the lucky 7 bottles. I’m a big fan of their whiskey and it seems like most people aren’t aware of their quality. I believe they source from Barton.

Bar snack that match a good Bourbon definitely,
