Knob Creek goes back to cork

Signal

I believe it was around this time last year that they switched to the screw top.

How long ago did Knob Creek switch away from cork? I seriously don't recall buying a bottle that didn't have one.

Also, TIL I am a hipster? Knob Creek is the only bourbon I keep on hand.

Pfft... according to Cliff, anyone that doesn't agree with him is a hipster.

Look, not calling anyone names. If you are happy paying double for Jim Beam Kentucky Bourbon at a slightly higher proof, you certainly can.

Higher proof = higher quality, doesn't it? Proof is like a rating.

It's alcohol content.

I'll just buy Beam and overclock it.

But, but, guys, you're all missing a critical point here!

With kork, you get that oh-so-satisfying little "pop-clunk" when you open the bottle!
