Based on responses, I'm going to try the following: siphon 1/2 the brew from the secondary and bottle...then bottle the 2nd half in two months and compare the tastes...although I may have to perform this taste-test a few times to really get it right!  ;)

Update: Started bottling the first half and thought I would taste...the oak flavors were spot on what I imagined a good bourbon barrel ale would taste like, so I ended up bottling the whole batch. Oakiness was very similar to the founders backwoods b that I had in my glass at the time. I only hope it turns out as good after a bit of bottle conditioning.

Cheers!
