    It was literally sitting on the counter as of Friday and I can tell you it had been there a wee bit o' time. Not like shelf time is going to ruin that delicious brew though :wink:

    My favorite thing about Capone's is the fact that buried treasures can go completely unnoticed in that shop sometimes and as you're scanning, you're just like "what? How the hell has this not been bought?" Makes the trip always seem worth it.

    While it isn't a BA Stout, I feel like He'Brew Sweet 16 might be an option for you.
    It reminded me of Lost Abbey Deliverance with a bigger punch to the brain.

    Avoid all barrel-aged beers!!! They will turn you into a pompous, elitist ass!!!

    It's been said, but deserves to be mentioned again, Uinta Labyrinth. It's one of my favorite stouts period. You won't be disappointed.

    The barrel aged one is stellar.

    The first BA Stout you drink should clearly be Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout Rare, I'm pretty sure it is easy to find.:grinning:

    It's actually assorted barrels. They use Beam/Turkey/Etc.

    i bought a 4 pack of dragons milk in atlanta during thanksgiving, and the one i had was still very hot..the alcohol/bourbon was all i tasted..i am going to sit on the other 3 i have for a while and see if it mellows out any. does anyone feel the same way about this?

    Get your hands on some Firestone Parabola if you can. It's a very clean bourbon barrel aged RIS.

    I like the regular but the BA is hot and overpriced, which is weird as the regular is underpriced. Maybe some aging on the BA version will help with the overpowering heat.
