    I'm aging a pack of FBS, kind of curious as to how it will turn out.

    I have a low tolerance for extremely hot beers, so anything where I can clearly taste heavy alcohol I try to lay down to take the edge off. Otherwise I'd drink everything I have fresh if I could.

    In the non-lambic department, not in order of preference:
    North Coast Old Stock
    Bell's Expedition
    Orval
    De Dolle Stille Nacht
    Rochefort 8 & 10
    A. Le Coq Imperial Extra Double Stout
    Courage RIS (remains to be seen if the new version will age as well as the old version...)

    I've got a mini-vert of FBS dating back to '08, I'll let you know how it is. :wink:

    Expedition Stout. It goes through drastic changes over the years, all of which are delicious.
