      Dragons Milk by New Holland Brewing is always my go to recommendation.  It's one of their main lines, so it is consistently available wherever they distribute and is a damn good example of the style.

      The Goose Island Bourbon County, as you mentioned, is another one that tends to be more widely available in my area.

      There are a few more that pop up on draft around me with some frequency that I'm blanking on the names of right now.  I'll post when I remember them though…

        I fully back the Dragon's Milk. Arcadia Ales also makes a Shipwreck Porter (bourbon barrel) that is super tasty if your looking for that sort.

            Anyone tried this new offering from Stone Brewing Company? It's a double IPA brewed with grapefruit peels. It's tangy as hell, but surprisingly drinkable and tasty.

              I wish I would have been on the lookout for that when I was in Montana today. Sounds like something I would enjoy, and stone doesn't generally disappoint. I didn't want to push my luck with the border though as I already had ten delicious beers courtesy of jdl to bring back!

                    Can't wait to get the return package Dan. Glad everything was intact, I was hoping the packing job would work.

                      I certainly enjoy Dragon's Milk, but prefer a little more bourbony - GI BCS isn't distributed here.  Any others?  I usually stoop to adding whiskey and vanilla to breakfast stout.

                        It's not as good as it's name.  Still good though.

                          British beer for me today!.. 5.2% (but I'm cheating as it's 50cl… Although I'm not drinking it all... Well: probably not...) Lotsa kiwi, lotsa white wine... This is something I could drink all day long on a hot summer day... Grand stuff!..

                            Oi! Beer is only meant to flow one way between Belgina and the UK….stop screwing with the system  😠

                            Next you'll be wanting British food (no-one is that desperate surely).

                              It's masively refreshing, and if you love South-Pacific white wines and fruits (no I'm not talking about Snowy and Mild7) like I do, it's a god's send on a warm day like today!..

                                Justin,

                                See if you can find any of the Shipwreck Porter from Arcadia Ales. It's a 12% that is VERY bourbon heavy, almost like a strong cocktail booze wise. It gets pricey for a 12oz bottle, but if over the top bourbon barrel is what you're looking for, I don't think there's a better choice I know of.

                                    That does look good…. on the list of things to find 😉 I still like this though for getting that heavy bourbon flavor without just drinking bourbon.

                                        I am not a fan of regular old raspy, but this stuff was great.  Top 10 all time for me.
