Whiskey Barrels
$100
We consistently get new shipments of barrels from all around the country in a wide range of conditions. Most of our barrels are “twice used”, meaning they were used to make bourbon, and then used a second time by a brewery to make barrel-aged beer. This process adds the flavor and character of the bourbon and barrel to the beer. After this, these barrels have no more life in the food or beverage industry, so they head to us to be repurposed.
Barrel Parts
Heads-$10, Staves-$2
Barrel parts are almost always available for individual purchase, including barrel heads, staves, and rings. Heads are taken fresh off the barrels, and are only held together tongue and grove. They will separate until you take the time to glue each piece or put a backing on it. Staves are a variety of sizes depending on the unique barrel they came off of.
