Anderson Valley Bourbon Stout

I recently had some Anderson Valley Bourbon Barrel Stout on draft (via my growler) and was very impressed. I decided to buy some bottles of it as Xmas presents for my father-in-law and my brother-and-sister-in-law (in Japan). I, of course, had to taste a bottle of it to make sure that the bottles tasted good enough to be presents. The bottles were very good, but they weren't as good as the draft.

Anderson Valley Brewery is not far from Alexander Valley Vineyards (in California). My wife and I both enjoy Alexander Valley's wines. We had a 2003 merlot that scored an 89. Yum! It was our first "Wow" experience with a wine.
