    4. Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Barleywine
    3. Lawson's Sip of Sunshine

    Best 5 for me this year in no order:

    Pliny the Elder - case was bottled one day earlier (visited NorCal in June, had 16 RR offerings and was impressed with most)
    2014 BCBCS (traded one of my VR bombers for 4 bottles of Coffee - worth it)
    2014 BCBS-VR
    2010 Dark Lord (cracked this open, post Blackhawks Stanley Cup victory)
    2015 CBS (at KBS release week in Grand Rapids at Founders, I didn't even touch the KBS (or anything else) on tap)
