I see your shelves behind you bowing slightly. I would strongly recommend measuring the shelves and going to Lowe’s with the measurement, and have them cut new shelves out of a stronger material. if they bow too much and slip out of the metal frame, it could be a lot of loss.
I was about to post this until I saw you beat me to it. I would cry for you if all that good whiskey went to waste. I’ve seen it happen many times (thankfully not to me)
Also from Michigan, I pay state min for most if not all BT, including Store Picks. I won't pay more that 36 for a store pick either. Anything more than that is crazy.
Nice we aren't far from each other. I'm in Arlington! I actually lived in Michigan for 4 years and love it up there. Happy to visit and now that I'm in to bourbon Michigan is definitely way better than VA! Thank you for watching!
@@brettmchan2855 pick one up as my first bottle. So surprised to see so many in Michigan but kinda makes sense since it’s made there. Thank you for watching!
@CapitolBourbon it is such an amazing bottle! I am originally from Michigan! I grew up in sterling heights and lived in Detroit for 10 years! I know Novi well. I now live in a small town in indiana about an hour from louisville! If I could find another murry hill club special release for 250 or less I wouldn't even think twice I absolutely love it!
No hate but within the first minutes of this video I’d need to tell you that the state has no control over the distribution they just control the prices. The supplier control who gets those rare bottles. Stores don’t have the same opportunity to get the rare bottles
Ahh thank you for the clarification. Someone at one of those stores told me that the state also controlled the distribution list. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
@@jonathanlunneberg1722 wow thank you for the information. May have to try those before I buy them but good to know they aren’t bad. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
So I seen the Hudson in the last store. I wanted to get a bottle for my buddy who's last name is Hudson. Which kind of Hudson would be closest to Eagle Rare or Buffalo Trace
@CapitolBourbon fair enough it's not extraordinary or anything but I feel like any fan of heaven hill should have one for sure! It is very good and different from larceny BP
At brass mug in Livonia all the store picks are directly to your left when you walk in. They just had a weller full proof pick and Russel’s private barrel ect. I think you missed them 😢
Wow definitely just missed those! Wish I caught the Russell's as I've never tried one but only heard good things. Bought a couple of bottles and the owner let me try their next Woodford Double Oak picks. Will definitely be checking them out next time again though. Thanks for stopping by and watching! Cheers!
@@danieleberly8861 wow that’s almost triple! I found a pact 10 for $180 which is about $40 over MSRP. I passed since I already blew my budget and can find them for about $160 around me. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Will do thanks for the recommendation and checking out the video! I lived in Royal Oak for 5 years and been to Ferndable many many times. Will be stopping by again soon.
Hearing a ton of great things about that bottle. Next time I'm up there I may need to grab another. Will be doing a review of it shortly here. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
I’ve been wanting to get one of those Maker’s WFS Heart Releases but they haven’t made it up here to Michigan yet. Brass Mug has some great store picks, that Knob Creek is awesome(I think it’s a distiller’s pick). Next time you’re up here go to Canton and head to Super Fine Wine
@@CityOfMusic88 haven’t had to change to try the MM The Heart Release but will be cracking it open here soon I promise. Yea was really really impressed with Brass Mug and picked up a few items
Nice thank you for the information, I found a couple here in VA too so may just have to pick one up for myself and give it a shot. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
@capitolbourbon, Magnus Master Blender Nancy Fraley here. Wow, did you say that JMCB is going for $500 in Michigan? I mean, I love JMCB because it's my baby, but that really IS insane. I'm so sorry to hear that. I made it to be a special but also approachably-priced pour. 🥃
Wow thank you for checking out my video!!! Can't wait to try my JMCB I picked up while there. And yup $500 at that store which was overpriced. A few others had it for MSRP though so wasn't too bad.
Next time you're in Novi, check out Maria's in Canton. It's about 20min South of Novi. Can't go wrong with your first stop though, Calvin and Ray at Novi Party Store are great.

Slightly lol

@@austinb8175 Yup definitely went out and fixed it up! New video at 10AM on 8/12! Got a new shelf lol! Thanks for watching and cheers!
Your shelves make me sooo nervous ❤😂
@@coltglass1270 it’s brand new and obviously cannot support the weight lol will be fixing it up here soon
Michigan local here. Have been able to consistently find Buffalo Trace 750ML for $29.99 to $34.99 for a while now. $60 is absolutely absurd
Also from Michigan, I pay state min for most if not all BT, including Store Picks. I won't pay more that 36 for a store pick either. Anything more than that is crazy.
Same 29.99 plus tax for the Buffalo trace. South East Michigan
The bowing on those shelves is top tier.
🤣 the new shelves can't handle it. Fixing soon. Thanks for stopping by!
Man sleeping on the Journeyman
Great video. I’m in Alexandria VA but I’m from Michigan. I think I visited most of those same stores earlier this year
Nice we aren't far from each other. I'm in Arlington! I actually lived in Michigan for 4 years and love it up there. Happy to visit and now that I'm in to bourbon Michigan is definitely way better than VA! Thank you for watching!
That murry hill club special release is an amazing bottle! If I can find another one I will for sure be backing it up!

Love the video! I’m always hunting around me in Michigan.
Glad you decided to check it out! Will try a different part of Michigan in a few months when I'm there again for work.
Novi my guy Calvin
The shelf behind you isn't going to last much longer... shelves are sagging.
18:48 why is there a texas mart old elk store pick in that store lol?

Nice review brother!!
Good video, grew up in Livonia , live in mid michigan now and we have nothing like these stores around here. 🤔 Cheers 👍 😉 🥃
Same here- grew up in Livonia but now in Pinconning
Came across your channel and subbed. Great content and Cheers! 🤙
Appreciate it! Just started so that means a lot. Finding out this CZcams thing is hard work lol! Cheers!
Brass Mug back room has all the hitters, but they are reserved there and charge 2ndry for allocated stuff
The Two James stuff is good and worth checking out. The Catcher's Rye is a 100% rye mashbill, so it's herbal and minty but its a good for fans of rye.

17:07 dont sleep on that fox and oden double oaked, but that Murray Hill Club SR is awesome also
Think that will have to be a pick up next time for sure. Just grabbed the Murray Hill Club SR. Can't wait to try it out!
We are in West Michigan, Just Subscribed. Great Job on the Video! Been to a few of those stores.
Thank you! Western Michigan is a fantastic place to be. Next time I'm out by Pentwater I will try to do a hunt there. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Great Video
Nice store choices. Would definitely recommend some additional spots next time you’re in Michigan.
cheers bro, just connected, East Coast LQ Reviews mentioned ya! hell ya!
Wow will have to check them out! Appreciate you stopping by!
That Buffalo Trace price is outrageous!
Great Video, thank you for the content, please include pricing if available. Love to know how prices differ from state to state.
Bernheim barrel proof is a good bottle! I think I saw that in the corner on the last store
@@brettmchan2855 yup you are right. Haven’t tried it yet, it’s on the list just so many other options too. Thank you for watching! Cheers!

Next time you're in Michigan check out Top Shelf in Allen Park.
Will do! Thank you for the recommendation and thank you for watching! Cheers!
They have alot, especially store picks. But premium pricing on everything allocated so I don't even bother with them anymore
Fellow Tuber (small/new channel). Subbed and looking forward to your content. Cheers, brother 🥃
Thank for stopping by! Glad you enjoyed the content. And yup realizing how hard CZcams is haha checking out your vids and subbed as well. Cheers!
@@CapitolBourbon You'll feel better, once one of your vids hits 1K views. Cheers, and keep plugging! 💪🏼🥃
From the novi area, novifinewine wanted i think 400 for the blood oaths...double on almost every bottle sadly
@@danieleberly8861 wow that’s almost triple! I found a pact 10 for $180 which is about $40 over MSRP. I passed since I already blew my budget and can find them for about $160 around me. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Good taste.
Next time in Michigan chrck out the outpost tcwc in ferndale. They have a 15yr mgp bourbon and 13yr mgp rye
Will do thanks for the recommendation and checking out the video! I lived in Royal Oak for 5 years and been to Ferndable many many times. Will be stopping by again soon.
I literally need that Murray hill club special release for a gift but I have never found one rip
Hearing a ton of great things about that bottle. Next time I'm up there I may need to grab another. Will be doing a review of it shortly here. Thanks for watching! Cheers!

I'm a michigander and that Buffalo Trace price is ridiculous. you can definitely find it on the shelf for $26.99
Fox & oden double oaked you can't go wrong, 8yr - 15yr juice in those bottles from mgp I believe
Nice thank you for the information, I found a couple here in VA too so may just have to pick one up for myself and give it a shot. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Joseph Magnus cigar blend for $600😳
I would do dirty things for that Murray Hill Club Special Release for $200
@@gregoryhrosen1932 😂😂 agreed! Had to pick one up for myself
First!
$60 for a Buffalo trace is actually insane!

Just about every store here in MI has it around MSRP. $500 is definitely a greedy anomaly
@@Reamer @CapitolBourbon, Wow, that's just horrible. I'm really sorry to hear that. I'm glad that at least elsewhere it's MSRP though.

Never seen a cigar blend and i live in mich mus be nice
@@adrastos123 wow interesting. Saw plenty in the Novi/Livonia area. Maybe that’s the spot. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
