Read that earlier. Great read and informative.


Question...what's everyone's impression of Knob single barrel? I've never had it. How does it compare to regular Knob?

Ahhh it's ok. I have a bottle but probably won't buy another. The only Beam product I buy regularly is Bookers.

It's not bad but just not worth $40 to me.
