| Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Barleywine (2017) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2017-10-06) | December 27th, 2020 |
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 Birthday Bourbon County Brand Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. | December 24th, 2020 |
2020-12-24 This is really great. Lots of very decadent, rich chocolate, but without the bitterness that the Anniversary had. Deep burnt caramel on the back of the tongue and lingers through the long finish. Silky smooth and very enjoyable. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Anniversary Bourbon County Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. | December 20th, 2020 |
2020-12-20 Notably different flavors from the base. More heat than your typical Bourbon County. The finish is slightly reminiscent of the 2015 Rare. Tons of dark chocolate is front and center, but lingers. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Stout (2020) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2020-09-22) | December 16th, 2020 |
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 | |

2021-12-12 Bourbon County Vertical 2021 | |

| Drank 12 oz of Chocolate Cherry Stout - Limited Release (2020) by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2020-10-09) | December 13th, 2020 |
2020-12-13 Lots of chocolate. Cherry is subtle. On the thin side, but good flavor. | |
| Drank 12 oz of KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge (2020) by Founders Brewing (2020-10-14) | December 8th, 2020 |
2022-04-21 Lots of dark chocolate and roasty malt with a hint of sweetness from the maple and booziness from the barrel. | |
2020-10-31 Founders knocked it out of the park with this one. Loads of chocolate, very rich, no bitterness. Only a few sips in, but looking forward to seeing how it changes with some warmth. | |

A little sediment and very little carbonation.
Flavor still on point. | |
2020-12-05 Phenomenal and is still drinking wonderfully. | |

2019-12-08 8 year vertical | |
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. | |

2022-12-04 Bourbon County Vertical 2022 | |

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 | |

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 | |

2019-12-08 8 year vertical | |
2019-12-01 2018 was better. Very thin and boozy, caramel on the aftertaste. Missing the rich, roastiness and relaxed by warmth. | |
