KENTUCKY®

BOURBON BARREL ALE®

Our Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale®, affectionately known as “The Beer of Bourbon Country”, celebrates the Kentucky Bourbon Trail® by upcycling authentic bourbon barrels to age our beer—giving these oak barrels a sustainable second life close to home.

As the beer rests in the charred barrels, subtle yet familiar notes of vanilla and oak are imparted to this strong ale. It is finished at the peak of its beer-meets-bourbon character, showcasing the best of both worlds as a pleasantly smooth yet robust strong ale, with classic Kentucky bourbon flavors lingering on the finish.

Lexington Brewing and Distilling Co. only ships spirits in select states: AK, DC, KY, OH, RI
