  • One of the big value releases of the year is out and it's named Old Tub Bourbon! Old tub was distillery only and is now widely available for around $20. Is it better than the other $20 bottles of whiskey out there or is it another Jim Beam limited edition flop?

    old tub was James Beams original recipe and was his favorite. 4 year bottle in bond sour mash. I've been drinking it for years. One of my favorites for being cheap, but I've never seen the bigger bottles before. Was always sold in a 100/375 ml flask bottles.

    You guys are the best! We love to watch your videos.
    You know it's bad when your little girl calls you out.
    The other day I would not let her do something, and I told her "nope nope nope nope".
    She told me I sounded like Dan.
    Then later I was pouring some bourbon into glencairns for my wife and I, and I accidentally spilled some, and my little girl told me, "See, you are like Dan!".

    Just a suggestion. You guys should show a close-up of every bottle that you touch whether it's a good review or bad. Just a quick bubble close-up that make me go, "ohhh!" Plus, it makes it more enjoyable when I walk into a liquor store and know the exact label you were talking about. It's fun watching you guys. Thank you!

    Haven't seen Old Tub in any of the stores I frequent in AZ.
    Never been a J.B. fan but, I do really like their Double Oak and Black Extra Aged lines. The 750ml are $20 each.
    The J.B. Black Extra Aged is $36 for the 1.75L bottle. I've finished 2 of these bottles and have kept both empty bottles to eventually make lamps out of them.

    Ugh... A few days ago, I optimistically picked up Old Tub after seeing it on the self for the first time in NJ. Today I came across this review. Though this juice is not horrible, I could have gone the rest of my life just fine without having ever tried it and putting the money towards something else.

    “Distillers cut is like a smoother version of Old Tub!!!” Yeah that’s literally what it is. It’s unfiltered. I feel like it would have been good to describe what the whiskey actually was. For what it is, it’s pretty damn good. But sure, if you’re into “smooth” it’s definitely not that.

    I've seen Old Tub in KY for $20. I really liked Distiller's Cut and was hoping Old Tub would be similar since Distiller's Cut is pretty hard to find now. As far as I know the main difference between Old Tub & Distiller's Cut is DC is 5-6 years old while Old Tub is likely only 4.

    You can find Old Tub around $20, also it is also a Bottled in Bond seems you didn't realize. I like it for around $20, but I don't mind the Beam Distillery characteristic. That being said if you look at the Whiskey Crusaders review there must be different batches out there.
    I think JTS Brown and JW Dant are both good value decent Heaven Hill BiB Bourbon.

    Old Tub is $20 in Kansas City. I liked it at that price point. The nuttiness definitely comes through. I didn't get any banana, but rather a slight Red Hots cinnamon candy at the end. I like the high proof, but I can get WT101 for a couple bucks more and Evan Williams BiB for a few bucks less, so probably won't be looking to buy another bottle of Old Tub.
