Ah sorry to hear that, that's always a terrible feeling, like when you open your last avocado only to find it rotten inside.
The guy at my local I bought the Bourbon County from today said, "You know, I'm kind of over bourbon barrel beers. It's not really about whether the beer is good or not, because everything tastes like bourbon at that point." I don't really agree with that, I've had plenty of bad barrel-aged beers. But I guess you can turn a mediocre beer into a pretty good one with barrel aging, but who cares..at the end it's still a better beer. Seemed like the kind of attitude that kept German and British beermakers from doing anything different for decades. Yes, the craft of beer is important, but so is the final result.
