Product details

Bourbon barrel-aged beers have been a hugely popular style ever since American craft brewers first started exploring this deliciously innovative technique in the 1990s. And the results of those experiments have only become more sought-after over the past decades.

We've packed the best elements of the style, along with the finest ingredients, into a foolproof recipe kit that brings the best of the craft breweries to you. By starting with a stronger-than-average robust porter, then infusing it with bourbon-soaked oak (we recommend Maker's Mark), the end result is quite possibly the best beer ever. You'll have to supply your own bourbon, so be sure to save a little to sip on brew day to really capture the spirit. The intense aroma and flavor of toasted American oak and the sweet graininess of good bourbon meld with the bittersweet roastiness of porter to make for a very characterful beer.

Due to the high starting gravity of this kit, we recommend pitching multiple packs of yeast or preparing a yeast starter for best results.

All-Time Favorite

Bourbon Barrel Porter is always my favorite not only to brew but to drink. I use Woodford Reserve and better than half of the oak chips to get an outstanding flavor. Like to have this around during the colder months (i.e. Christmas) as a seasonal warmer. Great flavor and aroma.

Sorry, I haven’t used my kits yet, still waiting for local temperatures to warm up a bit. I’m sure it’ll be as great as other kits I have gotten in the past. I’m getting thirsty just thinking about it,
