New Holland Spirits Beer Barrel Bourbon 750ml

New Holland Spirits Beer Barrel Bourbon comes from New Holland Brewing in Holland, Michigan, a combined brewery-distillery that finishes its bourbon in barrels previously used to age one of its own beers rather than a standard used-bourbon or wine cask. That beer-barrel finishing adds a malty, slightly hoppy layer on top of the base bourbon's usual caramel and oak. Expect caramel and toasted malt on the nose, a smooth, full palate with a subtle beer-driven complexity, and a warm, moderately long finish. A distinctive crossover for drinkers who like both bourbon and craft beer.

How to drink Beer Barrel Bourbon

Sip it neat to catch the malt character clearly — it's an unusual enough finish to be worth tasting before mixing it away.
