Mr. Brog

[vabriar]

So I have a few "mid range" pipes and a couple "higher end" pipes in my arsenal but I am a sucker for trying out lower cost pipes. With my recent introduction to Mr. Brog pipes I dove into reading reviews. It seems that overall people are very impressed with them so I ordered one. A #52 Scoot full rustication should be delivered in the next couple of days. I have high hopes because its a good looking pipe and I want it to smoke well so I can justify ordering the #51 Amigo then #43 Kentucky then... Whats that you guys call it around here, PAD? Anyway anyone care to share their experience with Mr. Brog?

I have 4 currently. Always enjoy them, use them as my out of the house pipe. Have replaced my use of cobs. You will not be dissapointed.

I ordered one too, should be here in a day or so.

 

[vabriar]

skysail which one did you order? dervis which ones do you have?

I have 5 Brogs. That 52 Scoot will make you happy. I use the filter in mine. One of the few pipes I use a filter in. Here is a pic of em. The 52 Scoot is the second from last. As a matter of fact, I just finished filling the second one, #16 Churchwarden, with a mixture of Drum and Stonehaven.

I'm not sure what the model number is, but its the extra large one, rusticated

I had a 51 amigo, It was a great pipe, I need another. Go buy it lol, I have a review here somewhere. I actually gave it to a friend who was shipping off to Iraq, he expressed interest in it so I gave it to him along with the rest of the tobacco in my truck. He loves it. I dont think I could have picked a better pipe to give him.

I currently have a scoot rusticated and a no66, and a churchwarden coming in. I love the no66. Trying to get some issues fixed with the Scoot, but I'm sure once it's all done I will love it. Planning on getting an Amigo. They look awesome!

 

[vabriar]

vinvin, may I ask what king of issues you are having with the scoot?

 

[flmason]

Congratulations on your new pipe. I hope you have many years of enjoyment from it once you receive it.

Have the amigo 51, and I love it. Much bigger bowl than I expected, so sometimes have to do a half-fill, but smokes great every-time, you won't be disappointed!

I second the Amigo. I tend to crave vanilla sometimes out of the blue. It's what I grab when I smoke MB's Vanilla Cream Flake.
It eats flakes.
I have been very happy with my Mr. Brog considering what I paid for it. The only thing I don't care for sometimes is the actual styling of the pipes (I think that's a result of the pear wood more then anything) and sometimes the stem feels "meh". But overall I have never regretted ordering one.

I have a Mr. Brog #69, also have a monster one that doesn't have a number on it, but as I recall is was an XOL Free Hand Style. They both smoke wonderfully.

I have the Scoot, No 43 and No 51. The 43 looks much better in person than the site. I love the look of the 43 its amazing and they all smoke very well.

 

[vabriar]

My Scoot is here! Came in right on time and I have to mention that their customer service is great. I asked 2 questions via email and they responded quickly, shipped the pipe fast and threw in the pipe stand and tamper at no cost. If this pipe smokes well I will be ordering more.

I just got a #66 of ebay which is one of his briar offerings. looks like a tall slim bowl and appears to be good for flakes. If it smokes good i will give an amigo a shot.

 

[vabriar]

Yesterday I finally got a chance to fire up the Scoot for the first time. I love this little pipe. It feels good in my hand and smoked great on the first smoke. It takes a couple of tries to get a pipe cleaner to the bowl but no big deal. It's a fuller feeling pipe in my hand with thicker walls compared to my other pipes which is a nice change for me. For the first smoke I tried some Boswell Christmas Cookie that I just got in. Anyway I'm not gong to ramble, the point is I'm very impressed.

They seem like great deals, wish he made more fully bent ones with military mounts, that's what I like.

@vabriar there was a crack in the stem but the people at mr.brog just sent me a new stem. all is good!
