Old Forester 12 Year Birthday Bourbon (2005) is a special release that honors the birthday of George Garvin Brown, founder of the Old Forester brand. Introduced as part of a celebrated annual series, the 2005 edition stands out for its distinctive, wide-shouldered decanter-style bottle and elegant presentation, complete with a wax seal and hangtag. Bottled at 96 proof and aged for 12 years, this release quickly became a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts for its age and limited availability. Each Birthday Bourbon release is drawn from a unique selection of barrels, making every year’s bottling a snapshot of Old Forester’s storied legacy. The 2005 edition is especially sought after, representing a moment in the evolution of modern bourbon collecting and reflecting the enduring heritage of one of Kentucky’s most historic distilleries.
