Knob Creek Bourbon has teamed up with NFL legend Eli Manning to launch Knob Creek Bold Picks, encouraging fans to make bold choices and enjoy a perfect pour ahead of the Big Game.
As part of the collaboration, Manning visited the Kentucky distillery to hand-select a limited-edition single-barrel bourbon alongside Master Distiller Freddie Noe. Dubbed Eli Manning’s 2025 Bold Pick, the bourbon is described as rich and full-flavored—much like Manning’s storied career on the field.
Fans can find the exclusive release at select retailers in the New York metro area, New Orleans, and Los Angeles for $59.99 per 750mL bottle.
