Bourbon Barrel Cranetucky | JT Walker's Brewery
ABV: 6.5%
IBU: 16
Style: Sour - Other
Actively Produced
Description: When we got together with Aaron Wood, the General Manager of Crane Alley in Urbana, to make a collaboration beer, he wanted to do something a little outside the box. That’s when Cranetucky was born. Kentucky Common is a modern interpretation of an ale style native to pre-prohibition Louisville. Historically the beer was dark in color, creamy, and tart as a result of the introduction of lactobacillus bacteria by sour mashing. Brewed with 20 percent corn and an 80 percent barley grain bill, we used the traditional sour mash style, and added roasted chocolate malt to create a very unique beer. For a special release we barrel-aged the beer in Heaven Hill Barrels for six months, which allowed the beer to mellow out quite a bit.
