    Not sure if the Cigar City Humidor Series counts but they demonstrate the best essence of wood I have had.

    So many packed closely together at the top of my list.

    I'm one of the minority that enjoys regular BCBS over the coffee variant. I also really enjoy Founder's Backwoods Bastard, with Thirsty Dog Wulver a bit more in certain categories, and then one step further ahead for Thirsty Dog's Siberian Night.

    Ultimately, I have Siberian Night on par with BCBS on my ratings but haven't ever had them side by side.

    I pretty much like any BBA beer (with some bad exceptions), so I'm going to pull a 'homer' here and add Arcadia's Shipwreck Porter to the conversation. Any year's version because they are consistent from year to year.

    Bourbon County Coffee.... I like Narwhal too, but I don't think that the barrel aging adds too much to SN Narwhal. I actually prefer the non barrel aged better.

    This is like asking what my favorite band or favorite book is. If you love the art you can't pick one favorite.

    My 3 favorites so far have been Backwoods Bastard, Kuhnhenn's BB4d and a great many of the versions of Big Bad Baptist though most enjoyable for me was version 17.
