LOL I've never tried the 46, but on my 2nd bottle of regular Maker's since I've been home.
Anyone ever drink Evan Williams? Buddy of mine drinks it but I've never tried it, seems like a pretty good price on a 1.75l bottle?

Rot gut. Good for cooking, or to put out when your alcoholic cousin comes over. Other than that... nada.
Guys... Life is too short to drink cheap bourbon... You either pay for it with cash and get the good stuff, or with your health the next morning after drinking the cheap stuff.

The best economy priced bourbon i have found is Eagle Rare. Runs about 25-30 bucks and is aged 10 years. It's easily worth double it's price tag in the quality and taste department.
May have to track down a bottle of that. I looked over the bourbon section pretty good last time and didn't remember seeing that anywhere, but I could have overlooked it. That small bottle of Maker's just doesn't last very long for being 30 bucks a bottle, and I just sip on it a little at a time.

IMO it even surpasses Makers.. I mean.. Where else can you find a 10 year old, single barrel bourbon at the 30 dollar mark.
Makers is only aged 6 years, and by their own deceleration will never make a "single barrel" makers..
That bottle looks familiar, I'm heading to town Friday to take a load of junk to the dump, may have to swing in and double check.
Should have took your advice, got me a bottle of Evan Williams the last time I was at the liquor store, not my favorite that's for sure!
I believe I will be sticking to Makers for now!

Dang had this all typed out and hit the wrong reply button and cleared it...ugh.
One part (2 ounces in my mini server/mixer) of vodka, gin, clear rum, clear tequila, 1/2 part (1 ounce) of Triple Sec, 4 tablespoons of squeezed lemon juice (preferred but you can use the green bottle stuff I just recommend alot less) 2 lemon wedges, 1 cup of Coca-Cola, 2 tablespoons of Splenda, and plenty of ice. Turn over once in the mixer and enjoy a couple.
I don't make large batches because the ice thins it or the pop looses its fizz. Sometimes I do make up the alcohol/Splenda portions then just add the ice, Coke, and lemon. Another substitute I do is if no lemon juice is available drop the Slenda and use Sweet and Sour mix instead. Just a touch. I don't use it often because it is TOO sweet for me.
