Beam Suntory produces Knob Creek, a brand of Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, at the Jim Beam distillery in Clermont, Kentucky. Knob Creek is one of four small batch bourbon brands by Jim Beam catering to the high-end liquor market, along with Booker's, Baker's, and Basil Hayden's. The primary expression of Knob Creek is bottled at 100 proof, exceeding the U.S. Federal labeling requirements' minimum of 80 proof. Originally aged for nine years, Beam Suntory removed the age statement from the label in late 2016 due to tight inventory that couldn't guarantee the full aging process. However, in mid-2019, Beam Suntory announced that the age statement would return to bottle labels sometime in 2020.

Knob Creek comes in a rectangular bottle, with a wax-sealed top and a corked or twist-on cap. The bourbon has a dark, golden-brown color due to its long aging process, allowing it to absorb more sugar from the wood than the other Jim Beam Small Batch brands. The company describes the flavor as "rich, sweet, woody, full-bodied, almost fruity," and the aroma as "toasted nuts, grain, oak." In 2009, Beam launched a campaign to publicize Knob Creek.
