If you haven’t had cider that has been aged in a spirit barrel, well, you are missing out on a unique flavor pairing. You can see what apples and Heaven Hill bourbon barrels can do together with this new release from Ogopogo Brewing.
Switched Gears
El Segundo Brewing is know for their IPA (they even dip their toes in Hazy on occasion) but I want to highlight a barrel-aged collab with Burnin’ Daylight Brewing Company.
Together they whipped up an Imperial Stout then stowed it away in Heaven Hill Bourbon barrels for 9 months. According to the brewery press release it has “notes of cookie dough, brownie mix, cherries, baking chocolate, apricot, bourbon and toasted oak.”
“Switchgear Stout” will be available in 375ml bottles on April 4th
