Alltech Lexington Brewing Adding Bourbon Barrel Toasted Stout & Bourbon Barrel Mango Wheat

Today, I have a new barrel-aged stout and it’s coming from Alltech’s Lexington Brewing And Distilling in Lexington, Kentucky, and Grand Rapids, Michigan. This is Bourbon Barrel Toasted Stout, and it will be a stout with natural flavors that is aged in Bourbon barrels. The beer will run in at 10%-AbV and it will be packaged in 12-oz bottles. Stay tuned for release details. I’ve also added in Bourbon Barrel Mango Wheat (8%-ABV, 12-oz Cans)
