A guy in my homebrew club has a source for used oak wine barrels. We discussed doing a group brew and then aging the beer in said barrel. Looking for some input on this from some brewers who have done this.
Looks like we will be brewing an imperial stout. Would you use a barrel that had contained red wine? or white? for that style? Or should we try to get a bourbon/whisky barrel for this style?
Some guys would like to do a sour beer. Seems like that might be a better choice for a wine barrel.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
