Used Bourbon Barrel

Just received an used bourbon barrel.  My plan is to brew my standard porter recipe later this summer and age 5 gallons of it in this barrel to impart the bourbon flavor and aroma.  I will compare this to simply adding a volume of bourbon to another keg (which I have done in the past with great results).  We will see if the portion aged in the barrel gets a more interesting flavor profile.
