2019-10-27 Something’s not quite right about this one. Not infected, but it’s like all the malt dropped out and all that’s left is the booze. Weird... | |
2018-11-09 Still great after 3 years. Better than 2016/2017. More molasses; newer ones are thinner. | |
2018-01-22 Tasting great after 2 years of aging. Happy Birthday to me! | |
2016-12-01 Really great aged even only 1 year. | |

2023-01-29 Starting to take on some aged characteristics, but not in a bad way. | |
2022-12-04 Bourbon County Vertical 2022 | |
2022-04-07 This is really holding up very well. Lots of barrel, smooth/silky mouthfeel, and lots of chocolate and roasted malt. | |
2021-12-12 Bourbon County Vertical 2021 | |
2020-12-05 Vertical 2020 | |

2019-12-08 8 year vertical | |

2019-12-08 8 year vertical | |
2017-11-26 Sadly not as good as 2016, which was not as good as 2015. This has an odd flavor profile and nose. Hoping my other bottles are better. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Stout (2018) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2018-10-04) | December 12th, 2021 |
2023-12-10 Bourbon County Vertical 2023 | |

2022-12-04 Bourbon County Vertical 2022 | |
2021-12-12 Bourbon County Vertical 2021 | |
2021-02-07 Super smooth, complex, boozy, chocolatey, and delicious. Left it a bit warmer than usual and that allows the flavors I love to shine right away. | |
2020-12-05 Vertical 2020 | |
2020-05-30 Very dark, lots of dark chocolate and sweetness. I think this one was best fresh. | |
2019-12-08 8 year vertical | |
2018-12-15 Mmmm. Welcome back my old friend. This is the BC I fell in love with but haven’t had since 2014. Dark, malty, bourbony booziness. Yum | |

| Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Stout (2020) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2020-09-22) | December 12th, 2021 |
2025-01-26 This one has not held up as well as others. Mouthfeel is a bit thin and while there’s barrel left on it, there’s a hint of bitterness as well. Hoping it gets better as it warms. | |
2024-08-10 With Phil in Colorado during steak night. | |
2023-12-10 Bourbon County Vertical 2023 | |
2023-07-01 Not my favorite year, but crazy depth of flavor and very boozy. | |
2022-12-04 Bourbon County Vertical 2022 | |
2021-12-12 Bourbon County Vertical 2021 | |
2021-03-19 Tons of dark chocolate, malt, and bourbon goodness. Decadent and rich. | |
2020-12-05 Vertical 2020 | |

| Drank 16 oz of Reserve Rye Bourbon County Brand Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2019-09-02) | December 12th, 2021 |
2021-12-12 Bourbon County Vertical 2021
Better than I remembered it being. | |
2019-12-22 Good, but I’m a little disappointed. I expected far more distinguishing characteristics, but it feels thinner and is slightly bitter. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Barleywine (2017) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2017-10-06) | December 12th, 2021 |
2023-12-27 Really damn good. Holding up great. | |
2021-12-12 Bourbon County Vertical 2021
So good. I hope they make these again someday. | |
2020-12-27 Wow, this has aged nicely. Lots of sweet caramel and toffee, with a hint of roasted malt at the end. The 14.4% ABV isn’t obvious. Looking forward to opening another next year. | |
2017-11-28 More caramel and darker than usual. I think this will age well. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Vanilla Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2018-09-04) | December 12th, 2021 |
2021-12-12 Bourbon County Vertical 2021
Still tons of vanilla. | |
2021-06-21 Crazy amount of vanilla. | |
2020-05-25 Each one I open has a varying amount of vanilla. This one is like chugging a bottle of vanilla extract; a bit heavy. | |
2020-03-24 Vanilla is still very prominent. The original recipe comes in with rich chocolate and malt on the finish. | |
2018-11-25 Oh wow it that a lot of vanilla that hits right away! Yum. Then the really dark malty, chocolatey flavor from the stout comes in, followed by the booziness of the bourbon barrels. Excellent! | |
| Drank 16 oz of Fog Nog by Abomination Brewing (2021-11-24) | December 5th, 2021 |
2021-12-05 Just a slight hint of spices, so not overpowering. Soft, creamy mouthfeel. Slight bitterness, which I wish was a bit less intense. Tropical fruit flavors. | |
| Drank 16 oz of BA Coconut Drip by Finback Brewery (2021) | December 5th, 2021 |
2022-05-27 Velvety, coconut, and coffee with plenty of barrel. This is a special treat that I wish I could get more of. | |
2021-12-05 So damn good. Coconut is subtle, but detectable and lingers on the finish. Very velvety mouthfeel - amazing. Lots of chocolate and coffee. Rich and decadent. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Double Barrel Toasted Barrel Stout (2021) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2021-07-20) | November 26th, 2021 |
2023-11-03 I have to say this seems better than I remember. Lots of barrel. On the negative side, it’s one of the thinnest BCs. | |
2022-09-01 Lots of barrel in this, but I really don’t think it’s all that different from the regular BC, except perhaps depth of flavor. Same flavors, just amped up a bit. | |
2021-11-26 I wanted to love this more. Lots of barrel. Reminds me of a Reserve, but smoother. A bit of sharpness on the front, that melts into a smooth bourbon Kentucky hug on the finish. Sadly not tasting anything from the toasted barrels. | |
| Drank Willettized Coffee Stout by Lagunitas Brewing Company (2020) | November 14th, 2021 |
2022-12-26 Held up well. Plenty of coffee and barrel, though seems like very little carbonation. | |
2021-03-16 Really roasty and whiskey is well pronounced. Dark chocolate flavors also present. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Abuse of Powder - Cashmere by Destination Unknown Beer Company (2020-11-12) | November 7th, 2021 |
2021-11-07 Better than I remember. Have to get more of this. | |
2021-02-24 Very light, nice flavor. Would buy again. | |
