Goodwood Brewing adds two new products to their spirits portfolio. Goodwood announced today that they have released two bourbon expressions: Stout Barrel Finished Bourbon and a Brandy Honey Ale Barrel Finished Bourbon.
The Stout Barrel Finish Bourbon was aged 5 years in charred American white oak barrels, then finished in Goodwood’s award-winning bourbon barrel stout barrels, for a truly unique sophisticated bourbon.
Nose: Oak, Coffee
Taste: Caramel, chocolate, extremely balanced, velvet finish.
Proof: 90
Honey Ale Barrel Finish Bourbon was aged 5 years in charred American White Oak barrels, then finished in Goodwood’s award-winning Brandy Honey Ale Barrels, for a brilliantly different expression.
Nose: Sweet, cinnamon, honey, vanilla
Taste: Dried fruit, sweet, medium body mouth feel, honey-floral front, citrus finish, incredibly smooth
Proof: 90
As with all Goodwood Brewing products, an emphasis was placed on quality and craftsmanship, with months of preparation and experimentation going into the spirit.
CEO Ted Mitzlaff continues to grow Goodwood’s unique line of spirits. “Goodwood’s latest releases combine Kentucky’s unequaled bourbon heritage with Goodwood’s award-winning barrel aged beers to create truly unique bourbons. They are delicious neat, or in your favorite bourbon cocktails.”
Goodwood Stout Barrel Finish and Honey Ale Barrel Finish are now available in select retail stores and exclusive accounts throughout Kentucky, Tennessee, and new markets to open soon. Goodwood Spirits can also be purchased at the Goodwood Brewing Taproom in Louisville, KY and the Goodwood Brewpub in Frankfort, KY.
About Goodwood Brewing
Goodwood Brewing is located in the heart of downtown Louisville, KY. The brewery is dedicated to making beers that have been touched by wood; whether in reclaimed oak casks once used to house bourbon, red wine, tequila, rum and brandy or seasoned on oak, hemp, poplar or ash. Goodwood’s “shade-grown beers” are all touched by the natural gradations of reclaimed casks and other wood types for flavorful expressions that are unique to Goodwood. Just like the bourbon Kentucky is famous for, all of Goodwood’s beers begin with limestone water. The gents behind Goodwood are some of Louisville’s longest-serving brewing veterans, producing craft beer since 1988. Goodwood is available in KY, TN, IN, MN, OH, WV, VA, AL, OK, TN, GA, SC, FL, TX, and NC. http://goodwood.beer
