Probably going to be mostly overlap with the alchy thread, but anyone planning to drink anything special for Christmas today?

I have champagne bottle of Boulevard 2013 Smokestack Series Imperial Stout (thanks to Finsfan). Planning to open that today, plus one or two of my "Gettin' Jiggy with Fezziwig" stouts, I brewed specially for Christmas.
 
No beer, but I did sneak in a bottle of cheap whisky. Log Cabin, only $17 for a liter
 
I cracked open an English style barleywine last night that I had brewed Xmas eve 2012. It has aged pretty nicely, lot of round sweet malt to cover the alcohol.
 
I have a bottle of Stone 2014 Barleywine courtesy of ruger988 I was gonna cellar but considering opening for the occasion. What say you? Cellar or celebrate?
 
As if I didn't know what the answer would be... Here ya go. Thanks @ruger988. Merry Christmas. Oh, by the way, this is floccing delicious.

Jackie O's Rubus Oro, Sherry Oil of Aphrodite, regular Oil of Aphrodite, and a Black Maple. Yum.
 
I have champagne bottle of Boulevard 2013 Smokestack Series Imperial Stout.

That's the exact beer I had Christmas Eve. I'm going to be doing a comparison of Alaskan Smoked Porters 2008 and 2013 for New Years.
