Which is your preferred after a good day afield?

Knob Creek but to be honest, I have not tried the other 2.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

BT seems to be taking the world by storm lately. I think I've heard that name about 10 times the last few months.

I like them all. Buffalo Trace is less expensive and somewhat lighter bodied than the other two. Woodford is rich and mellow. Knob Creek is a little warmer on the palate, it is higher proof though. Of course I don't water or ice them, so I know what they actually taste like.

I've tried them all ad they are good for a cold winter's night watching TV or the fire. But, they are expensive (worth it, but expensive for my nightly drinks), so I've pretty much standardized on Evan Williams 1783. Good and affordable.

My best friend, Uncas, our Rocket Scientist friend, Dave, a travelling Lutheran Pastor, Stan, and I did a side-by-side taste test during last years' annual pheasant hunt. Woodford Reserve won out for us. Ed

I like Woodford slightly more than knob creek, both are personal favorites. Have not tried the BT yet.

I'm a scotch man but if I'm having bourbon, I'll take Evan Williams Single Barrel.

I haven't tried Knob Creek but for my tastes it's Maker's Mark. I prefer it to the other two.

That explains why the Poobah drinks that sewer discharge over ice... He probably strains it through old gym socks, 'cause that's just the way he rolls. Ed

Which is your preferred after a good day afield? Buffalo Trace is good. Eagle Rare from the same distillary is mo' better. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_Rare

Makers isn't bad, but it does taste thin to me.

Nice to see there are those that appreciate fine bourbon. That oversmoked Celtic Skullsplitter stuff usually gets all the love.

Any of them do - so long as you have real 7-up to mix it with over ice. NOT diet 7-up.
