My buddy picked up a used once Keg, that was used to make whiskey. He let the beer set in that for a month. Then in the keg it went. That is some good ****. He's made 2 batches with it and seems he can get more yet.

Anyone done this ?

I just bought a 5 gal barrel to try to duplicate an awesome barrel aged IIPA I had at my local brewery.

I just picked up an eight gallon barrel from Woodinville Whiskey and I threw a big barleywine in it last week. Plan on aging it in the barrel for a few weeks then bottling it and putting it away for a while. Working on a Russian Imperial Stout to go into the barrel next.

Yes, it's quite common, actually. You can oak anything, really. But most folks who do so usually do a Stout, a Barleywine, a RIIS, a DIPA. Big things like that. But have you ever tried any of Innis and Gunn? They're lighter body beers that are aged in barrels.

Here's mine.



There's quite a few threads on this.

I oak my cider. I rather use cubes since you don't have to oak as long. Barrels take a long time to get the same effect of cubes (based on surface area).
