I see several on there that I know I like, but I haven't tried the rest.
Marker's Mark, Johnnie Walker Black, Grey Goose...  Not a big fan of Crown though.

I think everything on the list got a good review from bevmo. Other things were recommended by AR.

rip van winkle is amazing bourbon, makers is good, i hate tequila, drop the johnnie walker and get some 12 year old glevlivet or macallans or dalmore, much much better scotch, i was not impressed at all with the johnnie walker, get a nice single malt instead, the crown is "meh", i'd get some jim beam black instead, and i hate vodka too

I'm really don't like Jim Beam at all. Maker's Mark is a FAR superior bourbon. I'd switch those out in order...

I totally agree that Maker's is a better bourbon, but have you ever had Beam Black?

No, I haven't. Honestly, I didn't see the "black" part my first time through. What's the difference?

It's better in every conceivable way than regular Beam except it's a bit more expensive. It's aged longer, it's much smoother, the taste is more complex, and the alcohol content is higher.

Is it better than Maker's Mark? I'll admit that I'm pretty much a Maker's Mark nughugger. For the money, I don't know that it can be beat...

Depends on your taste  Personally I like both quite a bit. Black is a bit less expensive, so you'll have to do a little contrast and compare to find out which is better for the money.
