Whiskey Barber Poles
I like to get my hair cut on the road. I enjoy going to little barber shops in major cities, or in smaller towns. I just love meeting new people in them, and the characters that are so often the barbers. It’s easy to find a barber shop, all you have to do is look for the Barber Pole. That’s the whole concept of what I call, Whiskey Barber Poles. When it comes to wines, I like Pinot Noir’s and Cabernet Sauvingnon. When it comes to beer, I like a Pilner, Ambers, and Pale Ales. That really helps me out when I’m looking at a wine or beer list. You can do the same thing with whiskeys. There are bourbons made with wheat, and there’s only a handful of them, so if you like one of those, it sure helps out to know which ones those are. So I have written down some Whiskey Barber Poles to help you out when you are given a huge bourbon and whiskey list to look over.

Tax Stamps – BIB – & Other
Until 1985, the government required distillers to put tax strips draped over each bottle neck and cap to signify that tax had been paid. Because so many people are hunting and discovering old bottles and dusties, here’s a little information that might help you date a bottle. Of course, the Green Bottled in Bond tax strip states the Season and year the whiskey was put in the barrel and then the Season and year the whiskey was put in the bottle. “Tax strips are the blue (if exported), green or red strips that go up the side of the neck and over the cap and will either say U.S. Internal Revenue or Bureau of ATF. If it says ATF on the strip then your bottle is from 1977 – 1985. If it mentions the IRS then it’s pre-1977. We can break it down to smaller chunks fo time thanks to tax strip changes over the years. 1934-1944: Weight/Proof Marks on ends, no “Series” near Eagle’s feet. Upper-left edge reads “US Internal Revenue” 1945-1972: Words “Series” and “111″/”112″ added near Eagles feet. Upp
