    I can't resist but to talk about these guys now that we're in 2016, their barrel-aging program is killing it right now, especially in 12oz format. I have had their sours, their IPAs as well as their barrel-aged stouts and brown ales. All pretty damn good! Love their labels, love their distribution, seems to be plenty to go around on all aspects! Can't wait to see what they turn up for this year. Let's hear what you guys think,

    Favorite:
    Vanilla Noir

    2nd Favorites:
    Barrel-aged Bomb
    Christmas Bomb!
    Apple Brandy Noir


    Cheers

    Vanilla Noir is definitely my all time favorite from them (maybe from anyone), with Apple Brandy Noir, BA Bomb, and Pirate Noir a close second.

    Apple Brandy Noir.

    I also really liked the OK-Si tequila barrel brew and Pirate Noir.

    Call me jaded, but I can hardly go back to regular Bomb! now. Life's rough... Lol.

    Apple Brandy Noir absolutely blew me away, it's probably among my top 3 beers of all-time. Vanilla Noir is also outstanding, and Pirate Noir was pretty awesome as well. I'd really like to try Pirate Bomb, but it seems to be nearly impossible to acquire.

    I had Barrel-Aged Bomb recently and thought it was killer, but probably not much an improvement if any at all over the standard bomb. Heard great things about Apple Brandy Noir and Pirate Bomb.

    I have yet to try any of their barrel aged beers (though I did manage to find a barrel aged Bomb).
    Faves so far might be Xmas Bomb?

    Have several sitting in the cellar, including BA Bomb, Prairie Somewhere, Okie and Coffee Okie, though, so stay tuned.

    I have only have had five so far, but straight up Bomb! is the best so far (even over Xmas Bomb)

    I definitely need to trade for Vanilla Noir again. The last time I got it, it was horribly infected. I enjoyed the Prairie Noir and Wine Barrel Noir I had with it.

    Non infected Vanilla Noir may be their best offering alongside Apple Brandy Noir and Bomb! Just not a fan of the price tag on these beers :rolling_eyes:

    Ah, kinda none. Bomb is ok, but it's not worth $10. Maybe half that and it would still be just ok . Vanilla Bomb was a drain pour. Pirate Bomb was pretty good, but I only had two, worth a look. As a whole I'm just not all that impressed or interested.

    There was a divided discussion in the Southwest forum re: Prairie today. While I'm not a fan of many of their beers, I definitely enjoy Bomb! Haven't been fortunate enough to get my hands on Vanilla or Pirate Noir yet.

    BOMB! and Prairie Hop were some of my favorites.
