    I might take that back to IL to share with a few friends at a bottleshare over the xmas/new year holidays as I know drinking that on my own will get me pretty drunk. How hot is it when it comes to the bourbon? Does it need aged to balance out at all or is it ready whenever?

    This is a really good beer! Tastes like sweet tarts and Amarillo hops. Lots of peach and mango on the aroma and a solid amount of tartness. I've set another bottle back to age.

    By far one of the best beers I've ever had. Like... I'm about ready to trade my resolute mole and bean for more bottles ImageUploadedByTapatalk1416788865.071645.jpg

    I've had these two so far today... the WW wasn't anything too outstanding but the Vanilla Framinghammer is really good.

    I really liked it. I'll be honest barleywine hadn't been something I liked prior to yesterday. I wish I had another to age a few years. The cognac barrel adds such an awesome flavor. I bet after a few years it's even better.

    Ahh. I guess you don't know. They aged some bc in pappy van wink barrels this year and those bottles are gold capped

    Very rare and limited. Not sure what the ratio is but I'm sure is a 1000:1 or something like that
