    I didn't see the label for Bourbon County Sour. Will they be releasing that again this year?

    I wish they would specify which brand of scotch. I'm not a fan of smokey/peaty Islay scotch and I'm not really wanting a smokey BCBS.

    Pretty disappointing that they're sticking with the 500 ml bottles.

    Barrels from an Islay distillery, that means smoky! That should be tasty.

    Depends. Bruichladdich makes more than a couple unpeated Islays.

    Interesting that it discusses 2016 barleywine. Pretty sure King Henry 2.0 is currently in the rare barrels

    I think those are just two labels, there will be more to follow I'm sure

    Agreed on 500ml bottles sucking.

    It will probably run you what a bottle of good scotch runs ... $70+ :wink:

    Didn't they take apart those barrels to create those fancy little boxes the Rare 15 came in?

    I love Islay scotch, though I'm not sure a peaty stout would work, but it's certainly piqued my interest. Of course, barring a surprise trip to Illinois in the late fall, I doubt I'll be able to find out.
