I know I heard it from the man himself along with a lot of other people that this years Grand Reserve was going to be barrel aged.

I just wanted to let you all know that it is not going to happen now. Reason why? Shortage of bourbon barrels. This has got to be the worst excuse ever. I can go on to most websites and find barrels for sale right now. Hell Tin Roof just picked up a barrel to BA parade ground. I also heard Great Raft got 12 Pappy barrels, Bayou Teche is barrel aging beer. Andrew was exited about doing it and now it's not gonna happen.

Maybe next year, who knows.

Spreading knowledge so the masses that care can absorb it.

Even some red wine barrels might be nice with GR.

So if andrew cant find enough of what he thinks is the right barrel for his beer he should just get any ole random barrel to put gr in just so geaux can have his "inside" scoop. Gtfo! Sounds like andrew should stop telling you shite.

He shouldn't have told me and everyone he talked to at Zapps that he was going to do it. And the response that didn't come from Andrew directly was "shortage of quailty barrels". I found a bunch of "quality" barrels online for sale. If he's gotta have pappy then I don't know what to tell him, should have got the number from Great Raft..

You have no clue what kind of barrels he was looking for and the quantity he would need to release the beer commercially.
