USA, IL: Chicago’s Goose Island Beer Co. releases three new brews

Available this winter season, the three newcomers by Goose Island Beer Co. include Bourbon County Brand Barleywine, which is aged in third-use Bourbon barrels; Backyard Rye Bourbon County Brand Stout, which is aged in Templeton rye whiskey barrels with a variety of fresh berries; and Proprietor’s Bourbon County Brand Stout, which is aged in Templeton barrels with toasted coconut and will be available exclusively in the Chicago market, reports Shanken News Daily.

Each of the brews will be offered in limited quantities, with Barleywine packaged in four-packs and Backyard Rye and Proprietor’s packaged in 22-ounce bombers.

The trio will be sold alongside limited quantities of the brewer’s original Bourbon County Brand Stout, as well as the returning Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout, first launched last year in collaboration with Intelligentsia Coffee.
