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.

OTT bourbon: STRUISE RIO RESERVA… Drink it warm and you'll be in bourbon heaven...

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.

I found a few bottles at $30, but to make it feasible gonna have to fill a case

[Seul]

You're gonna get a case without having tried the one?..

[jdl1279]

Not a case of it, a couple of those along with some other selections to fill out a case. If I have to order from a vendor and have it shipped, I am going to make sure I find enough varied brews that are unavailable to me that half of said case will likely be things I haven't tried.

[justinkelly]

I need a vendor that will ship to PA, who are you using?  I had to make my bones with illicit trading due to our odd laws and (at the time) scant selection.

[Seul]

Aaah I see, jdl!.. Yeah: I'd do the same 

[jdl1279]

Looking at the selection and prices, probably going with these guys. Free shipping nationwide on orders over $250

Not cheap in the States either!..

Last summer Green Man Brewery in Asheville had some homemade malt liquor on tap….it was outstanding. Light and crisp with a fruity finish that just went perfect with the weather. Just look at those delicate tufts of lacing just barely clinging on..... No idea what the name was as I proceeded to get quite drunk on it.

I always like to keep a little of this french broad kolsch around during the summer to get me through my hausaufgarbage…Great kolsch (really under explored style if you ask me) and its like $3.50 for a 750ml bottle.

Game plan for tonight - kicking off the weekend…

The Chardonnay is the perfect follow up to the sour beer that is the Tap X... It's like a perfectly balanced Chablis Premier Cru, lotsa mineral in the taste and a sour-y touch that is masked by having had the Tap X beforehand, stressing out the vanilla flavours instead...

my vote for the goat

I'll never forget that insane blend of tobacco, whiskey, and chocolate.

@adam313:

Dank is a good word for this!

Never heard of it, but you've piqued my interest! So it's a kind beer?

That AVENTINUS BARRIQUE was sick… Starts of like a sour old Flemish beer, then develops this complex, soft, almost sweet and long aftertaste...

CRAZY I TELLS YA!..
