Flavor Profile Differences
Rye spice is the dividing line here.
- Rebel 100: A budget wheater at a useful proof. Sweet vanilla, honey and caramel with soft bread notes and very little rye bite.
- Yellowstone Select: A revived historic brand from Limestone Branch. Light and creamy, with toasted oak, vanilla and peach and a short, peppery finish. Part of the proceeds support Yellowstone National Park.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Go with Rebel 100 if you want a sweet, 100-proof wheater for mixing and easy sipping at a lower price point.
- Go with Yellowstone Select if you want a light, creamy everyday sipper with a historic name.
Best enjoyed rocks, old-fashioned, cocktails (Rebel 100); rocks, highball, old-fashioned (Yellowstone Select).
