We’re Serving Up Something Rare

March 2, 2016 by Bryan

Goose Bourbon County Stout

No, you aren’t seeing things – we’ve got Goose Island Bourbon County Stout at HBC right now.

BREWER’S NOTES
Brewed in honor of the 1000th batch at our original Clybourn brewpub. A liquid as dark and dense as a black hole with thick foam the color of a bourbon barrel. The nose is an intense mix of charred oak, chocolate, vanilla, caramel and smoke. One sip has more flavor than your average case of beer.
