I'll likely store my Vanilla until I hear word its mellowed a bit. That said, the wife and I did a cuvée of Orange and Vanilla and it had a nice creamsicle thing going that was pretty fun to drink.
My personal favs based on couple oz pours yesterday:
Reserve
Prop
Wheatwine
Midnight Orange
Regular
Coffee Barleywine
Vanilla
Bramble Rye

That's disappointing to hear about the Vanilla, but I'm getting more and more stoked to try that Wheatwine. I scored two bottles of both the Vanilla and the Wheatwine, and six regular. I would have liked to get a small pour of the orange just to try it. I don't think I'd handle a full bottle, though. The orange thing just seems odd.
Also, dude, the VSOJ....man.
