Hey all - So I am driving to a friends house and I see someone put a 6 gallon glass carboy and this 6 gallon oak barrel on the garbage. HOMEBREWER JACKPOT!
Looks like it was used for wine making. The barrel is cracked on the top as you can see in the pics. It has no wine odor....just a nice smell of oak so I am thinking it hasnt been used for many batches.
My question to you all is....what should I do with it?
I am brewing a wee heavy soon so I am thinking I can age it in this barrel?
Suggestions would be great thank you!
Cheers!
