GREEN FIFTH

MIRROR - MIRROR ON THE WALL   ***    WHO'S THE GREENEST FIFTH OF ALL

Well,  back in 1997 it was this Thos. Taylor  Virginia, N(t-151) that took the prize!    I was cleaning out some old folders and ran across some photos of the Downieville Whiskey Extravaganza of 1997.   There was some stiff competition from a well known 'beer label town' Clubhouse,  and   'Old Cutters'  smokin' J.H.Cutter(t-49) was looking pretty strong.   By popular vote?  the Mayor's Tommy T. was the chosen winner.






"SMILING"  Bob F.  with the meanest, greenest fifth!!   A Nevada bottle to boot!!

I'd be a smiling too,  if I owned that bottle!

I don't know if anything more green has come out of the ground in the past 12 years.                             Come on... let's see it.

  1. Not to my teensy bit of knowledge. "Da mayor" won because NV bias struck, again. Not really, that "Tommy T" earned him the title. LOL

  2. Meanest for sure but maybe not the greenest. There's a Star Shield out there that would give the Mayor's bottle a good run for the money!

  3. I'd say APs Evans & O'Brien would give any of those examples a run for their money !! Green, hammer, hammer, hammer whittled, frothy bubbles, swirls. You name it, the bottle has it.
