    Just a forewarning I'm not going to separate the coffee's by year, I know they change the coffee each year but too bad. I just wanted to see how BA's a a whole would rank bourbon county variants so far. And I am also only including bourbon county variants that have been bottled

    As much as I agree with that statement, I believe the question refers to bottled variants.

    For the variants, Rare followed very closely by Vanilla.

    Picked BCS because it is tried-and-true and will always be done year after year, but on the other hand I could have just as easily picked Rare (never had BCVS or the first year of Coffee though).

    despite all the haters I also think it is a very consistent beer

    Regular shouldn't be included in the poll as it's the OG and not a variant.

    Salt in the wound! By the time I stopped by their station only Buffalo Trace and Low Barrel were left (both were great though)

    I REALLY liked Low barrel! Amazing how less "angles share" gave it a much different taste.
