Description: | The king of this year’s Bourbon County lineup, this is Goose Island’s first “Cask Finish” release. For this stout, Goose Island aged its beer in freshly emptied barrels that previously held Angel’s Envy’s flagship Port-finished bourbon. Not satisfied with the level of Port influence after the initial maturation of a one-year process, Goose Island moved a portion of the stout into freshly emptied Ruby Port wine barrels from Portugal, where it rested for an additional year. One hundred percent of the final product has been aged in Angel’s Envy barrels, while about 60% of it spent time in the Port casks. The other 40% of spent its full two years in the Angel’s Envy barrels. With an ABV of 15.5%, this is the most potent of the 2023 Goose Island Bourbon County lineup. | |
