    Mott the Lesser is incredible if you can get your hands on one. AB Noir also excellent

    Hardywood Trickery is my vote. Apple Brandy milk stout that's incredible, wish I had another bottle of it!

    The one I always hear about is the Mexican Cake BA variant. Heard stories of super yum.

    Yep. It was really good, and not terribly difficult to find in the Buffalo area.

    Prairie Apple Brandy Nior was even on the shelf here until a couple weeks ago. So delicious.

    I recently had a Etienne Dupont cidre aged in some of their Calvados barrels for 6 months. Not beer, but tasty if you see it.

    Beer Geek Brunch Weasel Calvados Barrel edition is available in my parts, but I'm not sure it's worth the $1.50/oz price tag.

    (Laird's) Apple Brandy Barrel Aged Big Black Voodoo Daddy & (Laird's) Apple Brandy Barrel Aged Grande Negro Voodoo Papi from Voodoo Brewing. 2 of the best stouts I have ever had. Kind of a moot point because they were one offs released in 2012 and are pretty much extinct at this point.

    Apple brandy Leon from CCB might have been the best beer I've had all year.

    Having never had A.B. nor a beer that was A.B.B.A. (awesome right?!) please don't kill me when I say my first reaction to this thread title was to put a Tripel or pumpkin beer in a A.B.B. Just sounds super tasty to me. Again, please don't lynch me. Go about your business.

    Really wish more beers were apple brandy barrel-aged. Adds such a nice touch to an imperial stout/English barleywine/quad/etc.
