I buy it at Marketview Liquor at Tops Plaza on Jefferson, or Century Liquor on West Ridge Road. It will be pricier than the White. It's worth it.
I'm not a Bourbon fan but Beam Black is worth every precious penny it costs.

Of the choices given, I'd go Old Crow.

But count me firmly in the "You must go out and try Beam Black" camp.

I'd have to say either the Old Crow or the Ten High. Also, if you like Jim Beam Rye, try some Old Overholt Rye. They're both made by Jim Beam Brands, but the Overholt is usually a few dollars cheaper and in my opinion a better example of a Rye than the Beam Rye. Cheers!

P.S. Like everyone else said before me, Beam Black be some good shit. Grab some.

i like brandy and rum.
voddy and gin aint bad along with tequila but those are second to brandy and rum

although i'd have to say the actual second to brandy and rum are bitters and pastis. so i guess that would make voddy, gin, and tequila third.

Beam Black is quite good.
I don't have that kind of money for it to be an everyday Bourbon though. That is why I Drink Ezra Brooks.
$10.49 a Bottle in my area, and damn tasty as a mixer or standing on it's own, wich is how I Drink it.

Tonight finds me breaking out the good stuff though.
I've gotten out two Bottles that I have been nursing for years now because I am trying to keep up with the History channel.
Bookers True Barrel Bourbon, and Glenmorangie 10 year Scotch Whisky.

Both were gifts, that to this day, keep on giving.

White Label Beam does come in two different ages, 4 year old and 7 year old. Beam Black is 8 years, and I haven't tried it yet because I've got Evan Williams and WT101 on my shelf right now. I don't think I can get the 7 year White Label in Alabama.

Try some Old Grand Dad, preferrably the 100 proof variety.

Mmmmm... that's good booze!

Are you down with the OGD?

I voted for the Black Cock. It really has a great flavor.

Nothing is better than Black Cock, especially for the price!

I think price is an option, if Beam Black seemed pricey, Maker's doesn't have a chance.
BMMS is wrong.
