1. 2016 - Bourbon county Stout aged in maple bourbon barrels with chipotle peppers and cocoa nibs.
2. 2017 - Stout aged in bourbon barrels with bananas, roasted almonds, and cassia bark added.
3. 2018 - This year’s Proprietor’s explores the broad spectrum of chocolate. Using a combination of dark chocolate and two types of cocoa nibs, this rich and decadent beer highlights the whole range of chocolate from smooth and silky milk chocolate flavors to deep and earthy dark chocolate.
4. 2020 - Bourbon County Brand Stout blended with pistachios, cacao, candied Amarena cherries, and natural vanilla flavors.
5. 2021 - For the second year in a row, Proprietor’s Bourbon County Stout is inspired by a classic frozen treat and brewed again by the mastermind, Emily Kosmal. A flavor house specialist, Emily has the knowledge and skill to bring her dessert treats to life. Proprietor’s Bourbon County Stout is aged in bourbon barrels and blended with luscious strawberries, vanilla and coconut, reminiscent of a classic strawberry ice cream bar. These elements come together to create the indelible flavors of decadent shortcake, layered with vanilla and topped off with the slight fruitiness of strawberries, similar to the ice cream bar’s strawberry core.
6. 2022 - This recipe was dreamed up after two of our brewers, Jason Krasowski and Paul Cade, spent a night out on the town trying some of the best cocktails the city has to offer. The result is a brewer’s take on a jungle bird cocktail that combines banana, coconut, lime and a new ingredient for the Bourbon County Brand Stout family – pineapple.
7. 2023 - Imperial stout aged in Bourbon barrels with raisins, cassia bark, brown sugar, toasted rice & natural flavors
