Barrel-aging primer, introduction, or other resources?

[DavidWood2115]

Is there a good primer or other introduction to barrel aging beers? A friend is offering me a couple of small whiskey barrels, one five gallon, one three, to use to try making a (hopefully worthy) barrel-aged beer. We both like dark belgians, and I have had a few nice barrel-aged interpretations of said beers. Is there a book, primer, HomebrewTalk forum that would be a good introduction to attempting such a beer?

Thanks!
