No more Makers Mark

[twitzgall]

I just got off the Carnival Liberty (3/2/17) and was informed (quite sadly) that Makers Mark is no longer carried as of around December 2016 :(

 

That and Coke Zero were my go-to drink on Cheers... Now they have Buffalo Trace and something else to replace it.

 

This is a sad sad day. I will move on - but wanted others to prepare for this! :)

A cruise day without Makers is day without Sunshine

Yes and I was sad to see they did away with Guinness on our last cruise...but made the other options.

 

Cheers and happy cruising.

I like Markers Mark just fine. But Buffalo Trace IMO is a really good comparable bourbon. It would come down to personal preference. I like Knob Creek better than both, but I haven't seen that on ship before.

Sad to hear.:(

 

Thoroughly enjoy Maker's either with a little cola or more often just a cube or 2 of ice. A shame I've never seen Maker's 46, it's simply awesome.

 

That said, Buffalo Trace is not bad at all. Not quite in the same class as Maker's, but waaay better than the white label Beam that is the "go-to" at all the bars.

Just off the Valor a week ago, and yes, no Makers. But Woodford Reserve replaced it, so I was happy.
