Friday celebration where they release Bourbon County Stout and there\u2019s an afternoon tasting session at the brewpub (owned separately from AB InBev) where brewers of the beer are invited to talk about this year\u2019s variants and provide information while we sip on the beers that are paired with various sweets. If you\u2019re curious, you can check out my previous coverage of 2013 &amp; 2014 Goose Island Black Friday events:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/adamchandler.beer\/travel-gis-bourbon-county-stout-release-2013\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Travel: GI\u2019s Bourbon County Stout Release 2013 (Trip Summary)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/adamchandler.beer\/reviews-goose-island-bourbon-county-stout-variants-2013\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Goose Island Bourbon County Stout Variants 2013 (Event Recap)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/adamchandler.beer\/travel-chicagos-bourbon-county-release\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Travel: Chicago\u2019s Bourbon County Release 2013 (Trip Recap)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/adamchandler.beer\/events-black-friday-bourbon-county-stout-tasting-goose-island-clybourn\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Events: Black Friday Bourbon County Stout Tasting @ Goose Island Clybourn (2014)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/adamchandler.me\/photos\/albums\/black-friday-chicago-2014\/\">Black Friday 2014 Photo Gallery<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><a title=\"View &#039;Black Friday Bourbon County Stout Tasting @ Goose Island Clybourn&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/15287676424\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Black Friday Bourbon County Stout Tasting @ Goose Island Clybourn\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"480\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7539\/15287676424_301f3bb326_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Now that we\u2019re all caught up, I\u2019ve learned quite a bit since taking those two trips and thought I\u2019d lay them out here but I best most of my readers are already clued in to how this Goose Island thing works:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>InBev bought Goose Island a few years ago but the Goose Island Brewpub (Clybourn) is still operated independently and licenses the name and such from InBev. They make their own beer and occasionally serve BCS on draft at special events. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ratebeer.com\/brewers\/goose-island-beer-company--clybourn\/128\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">You can see all of the non-InBev beers here on RateBeer<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Over the years, InBev and Bourbon County Stout Black Friday has become a huge deal \/ money maker to increase hype around their \u2018Golden Goose\u2019 so to say. Each year more and more PR-Types are around, more Goose Island camera crews, marketing people and corporate shills show up and the pre-event marketing, promotion, etc is at a tipping point in my opinion.<\/li>\n<li>This year, Goose Island hired Good Beer Hunting to make a video series called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLo63v1zZZC4KfZ3smSSssMdIkqpRCEc1U\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grit n\u2019 Grain (YouTube)<\/a>. Lots of folksy guitar music and \u201creal working Americans\u201d were featured because nothing appeals to Blue-Collar people more than $60 bottles of beer. I don\u2019t know if GI \/ InBev was trying to make BCS Appeal to blue collar people or if it was intended to make hipsters feel like they\u2019re as close to \u201cworking man\u201d as they can get without literally chopping down a tree or welding or something like that<\/li>\n<li>Every year, the volume of Bourbon County Stout and its variants increase by double digit percentages but every year, BCS is available in more states, more stores and more bars so finding BCS today is as hard as it was finding it a few years ago if you\u2019re in a metro area. There is also more awareness of the brand. When Imperial Stouts are selling on eBay for 4-10x the MSRP, the wrong people are involved hunting down bottles like its Pappy van Winkle for the total reason of flipping the bottle for cash.<\/li>\n<li>I think Bourbon County Stout is excellent but I do think it is the only beer that is keeping Goose Island cool. A lot of the beers are brewed at InBev factories now. An event like Rare Day couldn\u2019t take place without BCS. I don\u2019t think anyone would line up for 312 or Honker\u2019s Ale<\/li>\n<li>Rare Day was the first of many events to come where the focus is taken off Black Friday and away from the brewpub and I don\u2019t see this as a bad thing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><a title=\"View &#039;Black Friday Bourbon County Stout Tasting @ Goose Island Clybourn&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/15722552520\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Black Friday Bourbon County Stout Tasting @ Goose Island Clybourn\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"480\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7525\/15722552520_0cc7301a57_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/p>\n<p><strong>Part Two: What is Rare Day 2015?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23025359966\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/686\/23025359966_ea87c1a838_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gooseisland.com\/index.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rare Day<\/a> took place on November 13th at Goose Island\u2019s Fulton location (for bottle sales) and at their new Barrel Warehouse for the drinking and entertainment portion of the event. The event is named after the 2nd edition of Bourbon Count Rare, a beer last released in 2010 which now sells regularly on secondary markets for $350 a bottle despite it\u2019s $50 a bottle price just 5 years ago. The new price of the smaller 2015 edition is $60 a bottle despite being 6 ounces less beer than the 2010 version. It does come in this fancy wooden box though\u2026just look at that box!<\/p>\n<p>The details of Rare Day were simple. Bourbon County Stout will still be released on Black Friday (although some retailers have already sold their allocation so they don\u2019t have to deal with all of the phone calls from beer geeks) but if you enter the Rare Day Lottery, get picked, pay $40 a person and travel to Chicago, you could buy three bottles of BCS Rare on the 13th and taste all* of the 2014 and 2015 BCS variants side by side. That asterisk next to \u201call\u201d is because the variants were only ones bottled, not all of the one-off BCS variants that show up at events. Seriously, there are dozens that get brought out in keg form that are not sold commercially. I really want to try Neapolitan one day!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/22632702397\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/770\/22632702397_eefbf6004d_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here are full details from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gooseisland.com\/rareday.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Goose Island Rare Day site<\/a> in case one day that site goes offline:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2015<\/p>\n<p>GOOSE ISLAND&#8217;S FULTON STREET BREWERY TAPROOM<\/p>\n<p>TICKETS ARE $40.00 AND INCLUDES:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option to purchase up to three (3) bottles of Rare Bourbon County Brand Stout<\/li>\n<li>Goose Island tote bag<\/li>\n<li>Entry to Barrel House event<\/li>\n<li>Commemorative Snifter<\/li>\n<li>6 beer tokens for (3oz.) pours of Bourbon County variant samples<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>SESSION A<\/p>\n<p>Bottle Release \u2013 11:00am \u2013 2:00pm<\/p>\n<p>Barrel House Event \u2013 1:00pm \u2013 4:00pm<\/p>\n<p>SESSION B<\/p>\n<p>Bottle Release \u2013 4:00pm \u2013 7:00pm<br \/>\nBarrel House Event \u2013 6:00pm \u2013 9:00pm<br \/>\nBARREL HOUSE CELEBRATION<\/p>\n<p>FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2015 \u2013 IMMEDIATELY AFTER BOTTLE PICK UP<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 hour live performance of the Black Oil Brothers (Chicago Bluegrass Band in our new Grit &amp; Grain video series)<\/li>\n<li>1 hour &#8220;Barrel to Bottle&#8221; presentation by Goose Island&#8217;s Jared Jankoski and Heaven Hill&#8217;s Master Distiller on the Rare Project and the life of Bourbon County Stout<\/li>\n<li>Food trucks (Food not included in ticket)<\/li>\n<li>Self guided tour of our Barrel House<\/li>\n<li>Over 12 different Bourbon County variants on tap with other Goose Island beers<\/li>\n<li>Merchandise booth full of Bourbon County and Goose Island gear<\/li>\n<li>Premiere of Grit &amp; Grain Chapter 9 (Rare Episode) one week before it&#8217;s release<\/li>\n<li>Photo Gallery of behind the scenes of Grit &amp; Grain with Michael Kiser from Good Beer Hunting<\/li>\n<li>Enter Goose Island filmmakers will be on hand to talk to about making Grit &amp; Grain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23062253611\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/725\/23062253611_6afa5dbc90_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Heather and I both entered the lottery for Rare Day and she won a chance to buy 2 tickets. We looked at flights and after last year\u2019s trip to Chicago, we as a group (Heather, Chris and I) decided not to drive this year or fly there and drive one way back with all of our beer. Driving to Chicago both ways within 72 hours is brutal. Upon checking flights, it was cheaper to fly to Chicago for Rare Day than on Black Friday and people who I could crash with would be in town instead of in Wisconsin for Thanksgiving so going for this event was much cheaper than Black Friday where I\u2019d have to wait in line all day and maybe get 1 bottle of each variant and one bottle of Rare along with $75 for the tasting at the brew pub that was 2 ounces of each 2015 variant.<\/p>\n<p>Rare day on the other hand is 3 bottles of Rare and all you can drink of 2014 &amp; 2015 variants plus no 8 hours of sitting in the cold in front of Binny\u2019s. It was pretty responsible to do Rare Day over Black Friday this year so we bought plane tickets.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n<p><strong>Parth Three: The Event (Photos &amp; Thoughts)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I often forget what city-life is like. I remember in SF, if you wanted to eat breakfast on Sunday, you\u2019d have to wait for an hour to be seated. One of my biggest complaints about Chicago and Rare Day is there was never a time where you didn\u2019t have to wait in line. Consider it a personal city tax I guess. You want to have cool stuff at your fingertips, there\u2019s going to be a long line.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23037477572\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5658\/23037477572_c7efb03d99_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We arrived at 2:45 at the Goose Island Fulton Street Brewery and there were 125 people ahead of us.

Little did we know there was loads of street parking at the barrel warehouse. Oh well. We get off the shuttle, walk in and there are 200 beer geeks snaked in a line. We were let in the doors at 6PM on the dot. So far, I\u2019d been standing in lines for a while.

Eventually, Vanilla ran out and was replaced by BCS Templeton Rye (the base for all of the Rye variants).

Maybe my insane fascination with finally getting to try Neapolitan got the best of me and caused me to wait in a Disney &#8211; World sized line for a blended Rye barrel BCS w\/ no adjuncts. My biggest regret of the time in Chicago was that line waiting. I brought this pain on myself. So many regrets.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23062643061\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"427\"  height=\"640\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/729\/23062643061_9024d551bc_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As we were in the line, employees were pouring Proprietors 2014 and 2015 so I snagged an additional pour of each. After just 2 hours, I was at a place in my intoxication that I knew I shouldn\u2019t keep drinking. It was more than just feeling buzzed, it was a sugar high of all of the imperial stouts side by side. My mouth was candy-coated, my stomach hurt and I basically just didn\u2019t want anything sweet going forward. That 312 Urban Wheat keg looked really appealing but not so appealing that I actually got a pour.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23051374925\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/713\/23051374925_5591a653dd_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Before people freak out about drinking and driving, I blew way under the legal limit before I left Goose Island and didn\u2019t drive for a while after the event ended and long after I had a full meal of Chicago deep dish pizza leftovers from that afternoon.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Pequod&#039;s Pizzeria&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/22632688737\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Pequod&#039;s Pizzeria\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5762\/22632688737_c05c8feff4_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Back to the event, there was a merchandise table setup with bottle openers, glassware, coffee cups and posters.

Another observation was I saw lots of women drinking Urban Wheat while their BF\/Husbands used the rest of the tokens for \u201call the BCS!\u201d and I assume the women drove the dudes home that night. Another sort of thinking out loud moment for me is around mules and people having their spouses come just to get extra bottles of BCS Rare. Don\u2019t underestimate beer geeks but assuming you won the Rare Day lottery, it\u2019s $80 for 2 people to go and $180 for 3 bottles of Rare. If your GF is only going for you to get extra Rare, that\u2019s $440 you spent for 6 bottles of Rare with a night of drinking Imperial Stouts. Minus the waiting in line and that\u2019s just insane. I guess I spent as much money as I flew to Chicago but Heather isn\u2019t muling for me. Those are her bottles just like the BTAC and Pappy she gets are her bottles. She may share her bottles sometimes but they\u2019re hers and she loves bourbon and stouts as much as I do. I want to assume every wife there loves Bourbon County but mostly I think these are beer traders getting as much \u201ccurrency\u201d as they can put on their AMEX and accumulating a lot of credit card debt in the process.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23037565562\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"427\"  height=\"640\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5703\/23037565562_a9d863eebf_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/22658849659\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Goose Island&#039;s 2015 Rare Day Celebration in Chicago\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/695\/22658849659_637032ff40_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Overall, I loved Rare Day.

Here\u2019s an arbitrary x\/10 rating for everything I tried followed by tasting notes of the 3 new variants I rated:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p>Bourbon County Stout (Original): \u00a08\/10<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p>Coffee: \u00a09\/10<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p>Proprietor\u2019s 2015: 6\/10<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p>Barley wine: 8\/10<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p>Rare (2015): \u00a010\/10<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p>Regal Rye: \u00a05\/10<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I loved Rare this year. Fantastic barrel character with no adjuncts getting in the way. coffee is going to be flawless in 2-3 months. Prop and Regal were weak but may improve with time like Bramble and Cherry rye did in the past. \u00a0Barleywine needs 1-2 years to shine. I\u2019ll buy as much as I can and wait. 2013 Barleywine is perfect now.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Goose Island Bourbon County Stout &#8211; Rare 2015<\/strong><br \/>\n4.4\/5<\/p>\n<p>AROMA 9\/10 APPEARANCE 5\/5 TASTE 8\/10 PALATE 4\/5 OVERALL 18\/20<\/p>\n<p>AdamChandler &#8211; Enfield, New Hampshire, USA &#8211; NOV 14, 2015<\/p>\n<p>A &#8211; This was unsurprisingly pitch black with no head at all. Looked very oily with huge legs on the glass. Sticky, oil like, rich<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; The aroma is gigantic. It smells like a bar of dark chocolate with a light bitterness, fudge, very dark bourbon barrel coffee and Madagascar vanilla beans.<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Red-Wine, Burnt oak, cigars, tobacco, a little bit of rubber with a ton of chocolate and vanilla. There\u2019s so much chocolate in here that I can\u2019t even. It\u2019s really like chewing on one of those artisan chocolate bars. Vanilla is way more pronounced than other non-adjunct BCS variants.<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; This is incredibly dense, thick. The mouthfeel is heavy and oily with a chocolate and smoked wood finish but not a huge carb bomb. I am surprised there\u2019s any carbonation in this beer at all.<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; This is a fantastic beer! It\u2019s going to get better with time and I look forward to having it again one day.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Goose Island Bourbon County Stout &#8211; Regal Rye Barrel<\/strong><br \/>\n3.6\/5<\/p>\n<p>AROMA 8\/10 APPEARANCE 4\/5 TASTE 7\/10 PALATE 3\/5 OVERALL 14\/20<\/p>\n<p>AdamChandler &#8211; Enfield, New Hampshire, USA &#8211; NOV 14, 2015<\/p>\n<p>A &#8211; Pitch black, dense, a 2 finger espresso colored head that faded fast w\/ no lacing.<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; The aroma is pretty weak, I get a very faint raspberry aroma but it\u2019s light with chocolate pudding and spice<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; The taste&#8230;.it\u2019s very medicinal like a berry cough syrup. I\u2019d say raspberry and cherry dominate the taste here. The Sea Salt is barely noticeable. The Templeton Re spice is present especially @ the finish. Chocolate but a high bitterness in this beer.<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; Oily, slick, lingering rye. Not very dense.<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; This beer is probably going to be amazing in 3 years. Think Fresh Cherry Rye and Fresh Bramble. Yeah, those fresh were like cough syrup and now they\u2019re really shining. I think this has that potential.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Goose Island Bourbon County Stout &#8211; Proprietor\u2019s 2015<\/strong><br \/>\n3.7\/5<\/p>\n<p>AROMA 8\/10 APPEARANCE 5\/5 TASTE 6\/10 PALATE 3\/5 OVERALL 15\/20<\/p>\n<p>AdamChandler &#8211; Enfield, New Hampshire, USA &#8211; NOV 14, 2015<\/p>\n<p>A &#8211; &#8230;like every other BCS Variant except slightly more oil on the surface than other variants<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; Aroma is a faint maple, chocolate syrup (hershey\u2019s) vanilla<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Things start out incredibly sweet, thick, boozy with a maple middle taste and only a faint spice at the finish. It\u2019s barely noticeable that there\u2019s pepper in here. As for pecan, I eat a handful every week and grew up eating them and I honestly don\u2019t get much nuttiness. The one problem with this is the beer is entirely too sweet.<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; Dense and very thick. The maple adds a lot of thickness here and it also is adding a ton of sweetness. I had 2 pours of this and was basically over Imperial Stouts for 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; Very nice, had alongside 2014 Prop and I greatly prefer that.
