    No. I'm waiting for 2 years before I do. I got to go to a GI tasting and they had aged beers there and the difference in taste was amazing.

    There isn't any rare this year so I'm looking for Proprietor and coffee.

    Let me know!!!

    I'll take a look at a few of my local packies this afternoon - have these been hard to come by?

    Prop might be difficult as it's only offered in Illinois.

    The beer should be released soon.

    I never have an issue finding their releases, my local shop even has them as singles. We can probably arrange something.

    Shoot me a message

    Comes out on Friday. I'm not a stout guy, but think I'll be going to the liquor store with my brother on Friday to help him get a bunch of beers.

    I have a list of people that I get these for. Proprietors is always the demand, that's why I had the Rare to send last year. However, if I get an extra I will send it your way.

    Forgot to tell you, I did a side by side with last years and this years Backwood Bastard by founders and last years aged VERY nicely. The difference in taste was noticeable and better.

    If anyone is interested, I'd be willing to trade a bottle of 2015 Bourbon County Brand Stout for a bottle of this years Bourbon County Barleywine, Bourbon County Coffee Stout or Proprieters. I never have a problem getting the regular BCBS, its the other varieties that don't show up around these parts. I usually buy quite a bit of the BCBS each year and pop one open and let the rest sit for at least a year. The I just recently had a 2015 and after just 1 year its considerably better. I just popped open the last of my 2012 and wow was that worth the wait. Anyway, PM if you want a bottle thats already been aged an extra year.

    It'll take multiple bottles to secure one of the variants.

    Are they really that much more rare? I just figured they weren't around here because Goose Island hasn't really caught on like it has in other parts of the country.

    Also be on the look out for vintage bottles! Rumour has it that GI is stocking shops with aged bottles! I would love that too!

    Yes, this is true. I have confirmed sightings. :wink:

    Binny's Lincoln Park (in Chicago) will have a bunch of different years. And if you get there by 9 or 10 you should be able to get all of this years expressions.
