## Resource

After a few months of recovery from Barrel-Aged December, we're back in the wood groove with four big beers from a Mt. Rushmore of Chicago's best breweries. Two stouts and two barleywines make the lineup here, and we're going to get a little extra sticky for the end-of-show cuvée. Also, Craig is ready to help someone discover the wonders of magnets; Ryan is angling for a little promotion bonus from a big streamer; we finally talk about that big local craft beer merger; and we are surprised by the shots being poured at Dave & Busters. Beers Reviewed Half Acre Beer Co. (w/ The Bruery) - Blue Morning (Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout w/ blueberries, maple syrup, and vanilla) Maplewood Brewing Company - Barrel-Aged Cuppa Neat: WT15 (Imperial stout aged in Wild Turkey 15 barrels) Revolution Brewing - Peach Brandy Barrel D.B.V.S.O.J.
