no

>gimmick #504 brand whiskey

there are so many whiskeys, vodkas, and gins that they all have some shit-eating name and bottle so people notice them. It's never worth the asking price no matter what the PR story tells you.

>not Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey
>not even calling straight bourbon whiskey

So it hasn't spent at least two years aging in oak barrels, it probably has added flavoring or color, and is in all likelihood cut with Everclear. Yeah no I'll keep buying Buffalo Trace.

God bless the Commenwealth.

God bless the USA.

God bless whiskey produced in the commonwealth, aged for at least 2 years in new oak barrels, from a grain bill not exceeding 49% corn, and barreled containing no more than 40% abv.

So I'm assuming that Evan Williams is alright for your average student poorfag?
>>
>>31187674
It's actually pretty decent.

I like Old Grand Dad though.
>>
>>31187674
Evan Williams isn't too bad. We use it as our well at the bar I'm at and I don't think it's terrible.
>>
>>31187674
You can take it up a notch and be in the same price range with Jameson. It's probably the best cheap whiskey, but Evan isn't terrible considering. If you've got an extra $5 or $10 try Bulleit. Their rye is pretty awesome as well.
>>
>>31184739
Being more a Rum person myself i saw they
make some.

anyone tried it?
how does it compare lets say to a Kraken
or an old captain morgan spiced?
>>
>>31187674
It's 86 proof, and still owned by Murica, which you can't say about Beam (japs), or Makers (italians)
>>
>>31187674
If you enjoy it, it's fine. It's much like wine, there's some excellent cheap stuff, and some terrible top end.
>>
>>31187788
Bulleit rye is actually kinda great for the price senpai. Many people do not like it because it tastes a bit rough, not realizing that is kinda the point. Its for people who like the whiskey to bite back a little, but not be complete swill.

That being said, there are certainly better whiskeys out there. It is no redbreast, but it certainly has its place.
>>
>>31187866
Japanese whisky is pretty damn good though
>>
.40 Creek, anyone?

Had a few boiler makers tonight made with Rahr summer wheat and .40 Creek. Pretty fucking good. Both have a strikingly similar flavor profile being that one is a Canadian whiskey and the other is a German style beer made in Texas. Will drink again.
>>
Isn't any run of the mill 20-30 dollar bottle good enough? Jameson and Makers Mark are my old reliable's

Nothin like death gripping the arm rests of a shitty plastic chair on the front porch of a trailer, finding a divot in the floor to stare at, and concentrating really hard on not dying.
>>
>>31187913
Ehh it depends on the person. I'm a bartender at a whiskey bar and some of our $8 a glass shit is as good as the $30 shit. You just have to taste a lot of different ones to find what you like.
>>
>>31187788
In my state they put a hefty import tax on Jameson so I might as well get a better domestic in the same price range. Might have to try Bulleit though.
>>
>>31187866
Sorry, i was wrong, Maker's went to the japs too, Wild Turkey was taken by the italians

Evan Williams is my go to Whiskey. Cheap and tastes good. Fine for drinking straight or with coke.

>Plus it's American owned
>>
>>31188138
When you grow up and stop hanging around your frat buddies, Bulleit is the tits. Also, don't mix whiskey, it means you're a faggot.

I've tried it. It wasn't complete shit. Best used for the disgraceful act of mixing.

The only Jack Daniels that doesn't taste like complete asshole is Gentleman Jack.

>>
>>31188341
There's nothing worth mentioning about Jack Daniels at all and the best thing the average accessible tier JW has going for it now being decent for the price and brand recognition. You sound like a high school student

But to be fair, most people Couldnt tell a good whisky or whiskey or any spirit for that matter, from $20 bullshit. That being said there is no reason to buy expensive vodka ever and patron is the most overrated bullshit of the decade.

The rule of thumb is the more it's mentioned in a song, the more you should avoid it

its pretty smooth, and owned by the ART15 guys. I bought a bottle to support the company and the cause, but im sure you could find better stuff for the same price. it was like $33 for the 5th
