    At this point, #1 is easy for me...FBS

    As far as the rest of them, it's hard to put them in order but for the other 4 I'd have to say:
    Boulevard Tank 7
    North Coast Brother Thelonious
    New Belgium Abbey
    Brau Brothers Moo Joos

    Aw man, how was Mikhail's Odd?? Really ISO that one. Wonder if they released one in 2015? (Hence the 'odd'?)

    That beer was amazing...I loved Espresso IRS but throwing it in bourbon barrels made it all the better. Gave it a nice sweetness to balance it out. That bad boy flew off the shelves when it was released, and for good reason. Hahaha. The only way I was able to get any bottles was through events at the Stone Company Store in Pasadena. In fact they had a case or two during LA Beer Week. You have to show up at least half an hour before the store opens to get one though. And though I would really love for then to rebrew it, it seems unlikely. Espresso IRS was their 2013 "odd" recipe. They don't have any plans to rebrew it to my knowledge and I doubt they have enough of it to barrel age and bottle/distribute.
