    I just purchased four 4s of BCBS and two 4s of BCBW I just tried one of the BCBW and was blown away. Now to the point I have the option to buy a solid case of both again tomorrow should I? I'm not much of a trader so realistically is there a point to buying even more of this or should I just let it go to someone else is this worth aging because I can't see me crushing the case I bought in the next month or 12.

    If you have the $ go for it. I think it should be a fantastic beer to age so its not like you won't end up drinking it all.

    If you have the money buy both!!!! I wish I could have bought that much Bourbon County, and I know BCBS will still be great in three years and I am sure BCBBW will age well too!

    Where are you in Michigan? SW and SE Michigan the BCBS and BCBW has long come and gone.

    Buy whatever you want, just don't put it on craiglist. Last year I bought a case of bourbon county and I still have some sitting around. I bought 2 4packs this year.

    I'd pass, but I'm more of a ticker. If you have 4 bottles you can age them and see how they do.

    The BW is worth it (if you have the money, of course), and you can always share with friends if you don't want to drink it yourself.

    Developed for up to 5 years and you can take them to bottle shares.
