Never tried Colt 45, really....never had a hankerin' for it.

Colt 45 isn't something you get a "hankerin" for. It was $2 for a tallboy at the bar I was at last night, and I'd always been curious to try it.

Verdict: not bad for the money, though your friends will order it too and conversation is interrupted by someone yelling "IT WORKS EVERY TIME" once every 10 minutes or so.

Also the bartender will make fun of you. Whatever.


***Correct me if I'm wrong....isn't Booker's made by Jim Beam?? Small batch of course. Heck, wasn't Booker Noe, Jim Beams grandson or great grandson??

Wikipedia says you're correct. Funny that Jim Beam also owns Old Crow and Old Granddad; my entire spectrum of bourbon is owned by the Jim Beam conglomerate.

When I use to rodeo....team rope and I was in a pinch, I bought and drank Jim Beam Rye.
Really good!! Haven' t had any in about 6months. For matter, I haven't had any Bulliet or Fightin'
Cock whisky.

Funny what I call a treat in this thread. Dang, I can remember back on 6th grade, a friend wanted to know
if I or my cousin wanted a piece of gum. My cousin looked at that kid like he was stupid.
My cousin popped off..."Who wants candy or gum, when you can have skoal"!!!!
6th grade mentality....go figure.

While Booker's is fine, I too like the Dickel. But Dickel is owned by Diageo PLC, another huge spirits mega-company.

The Bulleit Cohiba recommended is good as well. my personal favorite is Blanton's. Link for huge picture: https://www.blantonsbourbon.com/sites/all/themes/blantons/images/BLB-OSB.jpg
