I bought this today at my local liquor store for $20. I did pick up the cinnamon notes on the nose and pallet. Add a new one to my budget Bourbon list.
I got a bottle of the ezra brooks for 9.99 on clearance. Yesterday I got a bottle of old tubb for 19.99. I have not opened either yet. I can see some blind tasting in the future.
I got a bottle of this a couple of weeks ago. Never had any Ezra Brooks before. I thought it was pretty decent. It has a different profile than most of the bourbons I drink. The only thing that would make it better is getting it for $25. I am in metro Detroit and paid $30. **Edit - I did overpay.
I am a total novice (started drinking during Covid!) and have tried a few bottom shelf bourbons in the last year and a half or so. Found Ezra 90 and it's excellent and a great value. Figured I'd try the 99 but much prefer the 90 TBH, but again I don't really know what I'm doing, not a "pro" at this.
@@BourbonJunkies Thanks for the reply! Actually tried WT one time, prefer Ezra 90 and also like Rebel Yell, which I know is quite polarizing. Also just tried JD, and preferred Ezra to that by quite a bit, which I was a bit surprised by based on JD popularity. Any ideas for a "starter" Rye? Cheers!
The 90proof for $13 in a LITER up in Wisconsin is worth it. This at $23 is not... unless I somehow missed something when I popped this last night I just don't see ever buying another. ET BiB kicks this around all day at the price point as does OF100
no comparison. old tub tastes like dirty dishwater. this is closer to early times bib. different flavor profile but also a tremendous value for the cost.
I am not sure I understand the product marketing/segmentation for this label. This is a batch proof 99 v. their normal 90 and their barrel picks, at 107 (all non-age-stated)? That seems like some very thin slices for roughly the same product. If they wanted to slot something in between their wide release regular 90 and the 7yr Old Ezra, I would have preferred an age stated 90, even if it pushed the price to $30-35.
Guys great 👍 channel, I've watched 👀 U for awhile, but, here's the thing you should turn on the cool 😎 neon sign behind you. It would really 🪨 Rock the set! Cheers from 🍻 ETn, Smoky Mtn.area 👊🤙
Not a fan. Did a blind with Ezra 99, WT101, MM101, ET BiB, Very Old Barton 100 and it was the clear loser. Should be a sub $20 bottle. There are far better for less (i.e. Very Old Barton 100 for $13). Fair disclosure - I'm not a big fan of OE7 either.
Stop calling it "Cheap", it is "lower price point", "better value", "more economical"... Maybe they will sponsor an episode next time 🤣. Great episode, have you tried the Davidson's Reserve Barrel Proof yet? Highly recommend it.
@@robertshay9235 have you cracked it? I picked up this bottle today. I bought a bottle today. It was my first time seeing it in my local Metro Detroit area
@@robertshay9235 I’ll have to see what I think of it. It’s the least expensive bottle in my collection. Never had WT101 but I do have a bottle of Rare Breed that I really really enjoy
Seriously you guys have to blind OF100, Turkey 101, Ezra 99 and Early Times. Would love to see that episode!
YEEEESSSS!
99,100,101....great idea!
And Old Tub. And Evan Williams?
Oh yeah please
Do it!!!!

Oh we definitely need a best shooter bottle / plane bottle list!!
So good. I bought an Early Times the same day and tested them head to head. Gotta give it to Ezra 99. Hell of a bargain
Absolutely looking forward to finding/buying this bottle! Loving the Old Ezra 7
Going to have to try it 22.99 in Indiana.
This is one of my go to drinks. Enjoy Ezra. Nice job guys.
"Panther Claw" - name and sticker-art for your next barrel pick are ready to go!
Wild Turkey 101 is and always will be the undisputed king of this game, but EB99 comes a fair bit close
Been waiting for this one!! Thanks guys!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Excellent direction on the Cookie B roll. Hope he got some 'nip for his cameo. Should be able to LIKE this one twice just for that. Great job guys!
for $21 at my liquor store. loving it chocolate notes and yes it lingers.
New subscriber, I just wanted to say I enjoy your videos. You guys keep up the great work!
I got a heavy pond water with lots of algae couldn't get past that taste.
I'm still waiting on Ezra Brooks 99 to show up here (in TN) too. The 90-proofer is a solid mixer for sure.
I'm In TN too and love Ezra but can't find the 99😥
In middle TN and bought the 99 a month or so ago. I think people are catching onto it though...
I got a bottle of the ezra brooks for 9.99 on clearance. Yesterday I got a bottle of old tubb for 19.99. I have not opened either yet. I can see some blind tasting in the future.
Local store has the Ezra 99 in a store pick I believe for about $35... looks like I might have to head back in
Is it the distiller select? If so grab it. It’s great
@@TheTigerBurge I will let you know when I run back in there. I think it was the store owners pick but I could be wrong
Just bought this for 22 bucks, well worth it.

obligatory comment supporting the channel because these guys rock.
Love the content appreciate all the heads up on this sweet tea
I was going to grab a bottle of Wild Turkey 101, but this was right next to it so I took the chance. So not disappointed.
Have the 7 and I have to say I love it. Proof is right, love all the flavors!
Even in europe it's got some decent availability now. Around 30 bucks near me.
Pretty bottle too, for the price.
I agree! Even Old Ezra 7 yr old taste like a Beam product! Cheer's
Using a cat to drive likes, pure genius! It should be the thumbnail.

Always good to keep trying things, no shame in liking what you like. I'd say try out the wild turkey line up, probably up your alley as well.

ET Bib is always our love, but it's not everyone's jam.
Nice B Roll with the Cookie claws!
Panther claws
Got it today for $23 after Connecticut ridiculous tax.
Enjoy mine it’s great daily sipping whiskey 🥃
I love Ezra can't wait to try this one!....hoovering schnif has me dying🤣😂
been a long, long time since i've hoovered some schneef
How does this compare to old tub? i know you said jim and knob but sounds like old tub could be its rival.
no comparison. old tub tastes like dirty dishwater. this is closer to early times bib. different flavor profile but also a tremendous value for the cost.
this beats the breaks off old tub
We have yet to see one on shelves. It doesn't really sound like our preferred flavor profile but I'll still pick one up regardless.
With Lux Row being bought by MGP recently, what if any changes would you expect to see for the Ezra line?
Probably nothing honestly
It would be interesting if you can get a store pick Ezra to do blind Old Ezera, store pick and Ezra 99
Your black 🖤 😺 is sooo mellow'd out!! It's enjoying the cool vibe---
What a clean pop from known strongman Dan!
How about the Barton 1792 Small Batch? Is that legit for this price comparison? Just curious. I've never been able to find the ET Bib.
Bought a bottle but have not opened yet.
Did you direct Cookie to tap the bottle or was that improvised? Either way, it was a nice touch (pun intended)
The Cookie B Roll, what a shot 🐈⬛
We give the people what they want
How does Ezra 99 compare to Evan Williams bib because I can get it for 32 dollars for 1.75 liters?
I think it's better, more of a neat sipper for me
Best pour of all time!!!!
Freakin’ nailed it!
Can I get this in PA? Nope.
I just found an Ezra 99 and compared to the Old Ezra 7 101 and the Old Ezra 7 Barrel Proof it is far inferior. I hope it opens up in a month
Wheres the bottle flips anymore
We've been slacking
Y'all just broke my heart… why is Early Times BIB going away?!? Where did you hear this?!?
Can’t wait to see if they sell this down in Manhattan Kansas....
I have yet to find an Ezra barrel proof in the wild, can someone help me out with a site that won't price gouge the shit out of me?

They're honestly pretty different on the pallet, I'd rather have the barrel proof over either the 99 or 90

it has a grass aftertaste
On sale for 19
Haven't seen one yet!!
Well FL be wild
Guys do you not have a dishwasher???
Dan tells me it's constantly running, like his kids drool on everything and then it needs washed
@@BourbonJunkies 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏼♂️
cookie love
We know the people want
Is Dan slowly turning into the Michigan Peter Griffin?
Cookie paw flex best part of the video by far

Have you guys done a smoke wagon video?
On lives I think we've had a couple. Idk if we've ever done a video
Liked because Cookie in B-roll. #teamCookie
Let's see Dan try and zip up that same hoodie in the next episode 🤣😅
I haven’t seen this in...........eh joke is played out. Moving on, but I really haven’t seen this one yet lol
As if that seductive haircut wasn't enough,
You had me at Booker's crossed with Turkey101!

too bad the Old Ezra 7 went up another $10 on Michigan's price book on January 31st. state min is $60 now. seems like yesterday it was $40.
Didn't know that
Michigan has the worst liquor prices

I bet that hoodie won’t zip up!
Blind it against other similar price and proof bourbons that you feel are hitters.
Do a $25 blind. That would be a good video.
Dan always pops early
🤣
When someone gives you a free bottle that sucks... "it's not bad.. I don't hate it"
lol it's better than that, we'd rather have Early times Bib or OF100 tho. Not everyone has our pallet though!
Just got 2 bottles of 99 on sale for 8.50$ each. 😂
Cookie B Roll was tight. #extrapetsforcookie
May have to run to the bottle shop before the blizzard hits down here in Indiana. Cheers 🥃
Lol Now the proof is in the table..
Ezra 99 is about $19.00 in Texas but I can’t find Ezra 7 anywhere.#SUX
Look at those fresh high and tights!
A proper man's haircut.

Dan, who cut your hair bro.
He did!
Just doing a little tasting and I can't really tell the difference between Evan Williams BiB and Ezra 99. Hmmm???
big difference. no pond water taste with evan Williams

PA has it listed as Coming Soon. I’m definitely in to try it especially at that price point!
Picked it up yesterday. Can’t wait to crack it!!
@@robertshay9235 have you cracked it? I picked up this bottle today. I bought a bottle today. It was my first time seeing it in my local Metro Detroit area

Is there a baby sleeping in the room? SPEAK UP.
great whisky tho
Is it me or does Ezera 99 tastes just like Larceny?
it's disgusting. taste how a wet basement smells
