I drank my first bottle of this the other day. Belmont Station 15th anniversary ale from Block 15 Brewing. Planning on aging the other for a year or so. To put it simply this was just amazing. Completely worth the $15 per bottle. Its a Scottish style ale aged in bourbon barrels and then blended with Oud Bruin. Starts out Acidic and wonderful, then moves into some great malty complexity, and ends with a very slight bourbon note. Just fantastic. Very few brews can you pick out each part so easily while also finding it all blends together for an amazing complexity. I find that many whiskey/bourbon aged beers are to pronounced. This one was completely different, at the end you get a hint of bourbon but more so it finishes just like a bourbon finishes, hard to explain though. You can read more about it here. Overall this beer just proved why they are one of my favorite breweries around. I stop in whenever I can and they never disappoint.
