Paul, Great idea but...... Every brew pub that advertizes this thing
always runs out before I arrive. Must be a fate thing.
I would gladly donate my 10 or 15 gallons worth. Possibly some of the
"big kettle guys" could toss in even more.
Now the next logical questions is where does it sit and how long does
it need to sit still?
Thanks

A posting on the Northern Brewer site highlighted the Denver
club's
efforts on whiskey barrel conditioning as a club project. Members
brew
the same recipe and fill a 55-gallon cask for conditioning. Each
brewer
chipped in $15 to purchase the $150 cask. They're brewing a
barleywine
and an Imperial stout.

Does this have any appeal to MHB members? If people are interested,
I'd
be willing to explore the price and logistics of getting a whiskey
barrel. A feature on barrel conditioning is in the current issue of
BYO.
