Quick review: good batch, not mind blowing. Definitely recommend to drink it neat, it became bland with a bit of water. Honestly, a local Knob Creek store pick is better and less expensive (I'll be picking up a couple more of those next payday). That being said, I don't regret buying the Bookers, but I'm a mark for the Bookers series, I collect the cards and generally enjoy the Beam taste profile. If you're not a collector, (and can't find it for MSRP) I'd probably skip it.
