BARRICALE
A unique project, producing unique beers
The #ICBG will continue the very rare beer competition, 'Barricale.' 
Barricale features barrel-aged beers from more than 20 Illinois craft breweries.
 Heaven Hills barrels are the variable this year, as brewers fill empties with the craft beer of their choice. Some beers have been sitting for as long as 3, 6 and 12 months.
 Come visit the ImBIBE Pouring Station at FoBAB this year and taste the different nuances of each Illinois hand-crafted barrel-aged beer. Talk to each brewer and find out exactly why they chose to work with the beers they did. This project is sponsored by Goose Island Brewing Co.
The National Wood Aged Beer Competition is judged by a panel of industry experts prior to the public sessions. Each beer is judged on the basis of how that underlying style reflects the expression of wood and/or barrel character. Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals will be awarded in 12 categories as well as “Best of Show.”
