This week on The Malting Hour, we dive into one of our favorite annual traditions—the release of the 2026 Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout lineup. With six variants dropping this year, there’s plenty to get excited about, and we talk through which bottles we’re most looking forward to cracking open.

Along the way, Brandon reaches deep into his cellar and opens three Bourbon County variants from previous years, adding some fun nostalgia (and a few surprises) to the conversation.
The 2026 lineup includes:

Original Stout
Tiramisu Cask Finish Stout
Apple Crisp Stout
Proprietor’s Stout
Triple Oak Barleywine
Toasted Barrel Rye Stout

Each variant brings its own personality—from dessert‑inspired layers to deep barrel character—and we break down the flavors, the concepts, and the stories behind them.
