1/23/23 update - Revised the number of available bottles and updated the final odds (I originally used the winter bottle lottery bottles instead of the autumn. I apologize for the error.

The Ohio Department of Liquor (OHLQ) has posted the results of the 2022 Autumn Bottle Lottery Winners. As is always the case, I did not win, thus, keeping my lifetime losing streak intact. 

Autumn Lottery - There were 1503 bottles available and 56,940 entries. This resulted in an overall chance of winning of 2.64% (or around 1 in 38). 

The breakdown of available bottles was:
  • Colonel E.H. Taylor Barrel Proof - 594 bottles
  • King of Kentucky - 120 bottles, 
  • Old Fitzgerald Bottled-In-Bond 17 Year - 470 bottles
  • Old Forester Birthday Bourbon 2022 - 249 bottles
  • Weller C.Y.P.B. - 290 bottles
The bottles were slightly different and the lottery had a new name, but compared to last year, the 2022 edition had 2380 less entries. 

2022 Entries - 56,940
2021 Entries - 59,320

The State was delayed in providing me the results so I couldn't find the full list of winners to post my favorites. 

As always, Congrats to all the winners.
