They need to raise the price.. Not water down their product.. Seems like the wrong approach to supply and demand.

I thought the owner did an excellent job of explaining this decision and how upfront the company is being concerning this decision is refreshing. In the end, if the taste is the same, who gives a shit? If your drinking Maker's Mark to get drunk, you are wasting your money. Go buy something cheaper like Old Crow if all you want to do is get wasted. Last edited by LoneWolf; 02-11-2013 at 10:55 AM.. |

Booze snoobs, is this really going to make that much of a difference?
Would you even know if they hadn't announced it?

2) Learn blends. Malts. How many malts? Filters. Age. All plays in to the taste of the drink. 3) Play stupid and taste for free. You're in shape - find a gay bartender and ask him what the difference is. You won't have much difficulty selling yourself as a legitimate opportunity. If you feel guilty remind yourself that women do this every single day and get drunk for free (I don't know what the kids call it now but it use to be "milking a man.")

If it tastes the same, which is a substantial if, then I don't see the problem. You aren't paying for the alcohol level. You're paying for the (in the case of Maker's, overrated) flavor profile.

Makers is out in a lot of places. I need to see if Costco still has any batches left.
