At 18.7% ABV, the rye stout is described as barrel-forward, with milk chocolate, vanilla and deep bourbon notes.
Goose Island Beer Co. has introduced its first Bourbon County Brand Triple Barrel Stout, according to Chicago Food Magazine. The beer was aged for three years across three freshly emptied bourbon barrels, moving from one to the next to build layers of spirit, oak and character.
It comes in a 16.9 oz. bottle and is sold exclusively at Goose Island's Chicago properties, the Taproom and Salt Shed Pub.
