Knob Creek barrel bung
Knob Creek has apparently closed out their Drought of 2009 marketing campaign, and they’ve done it in style. A bunch of Stillhouse members have reported receiving a package in the mail with a commemorative barrel bung to celebrate the resumption of Knob Creek bourbon bottling. I just got mine today.
It comes in a box with the following text:
Dear Knob Creek Lover,
Thanks for being patient. After 9 long, rewarding years, your batch of 2000 Knob Creek Bourbon is ready to enjoy. In honor of this occasion, we’d like to share a commemorative 2000-2009 Knob Creek barrel bung.
Cheers! Your friends at Knob Creek
Now, I never actually saw any difference in availability on the shelves here in AZ, but it was still a fun campaign, and now i have my own barrel bung. That’s a pretty cool chotski for the ‘ol liquor cabinet. Perhaps they’ll send out the bourbon barrel that it goes with for Christmas, so hurry and get your Stillhouse membership.

The drought is over.
I survived the drought of 2009 and all I got was this bunghole.
cool marketing item.
u know, i never had knob creek . i am not big on bourbons
I love bourbons and knob creek is one of my favorites. But as I have recently discovered single malts, there is no comparison to some to some of the finer ones. So far my favorite is the Highland Park 18, absolutely awesome whiskey.
