Right I have had it, I cannot for the life of me find any decently priced or readily available wooden barrels/Oak barrels online to start a sour beer project off.
Has anyone got any links or anywhere I could try to get a 30lt ish cask/barrel for a sensible price.
Theakstons didn't have any, they pointed me to White Rose Cooperage but Alastair wants £140 for a brand new pin!
I'd prefer a couple of used ones to be honest, something mayeb from a vineyard or winery. I tried contacting a couple of UK ones but they never got back to me.
Thanks in advance
Wooden/Oak Barrels
Re: Wooden/Oak Barrels
I bought one of Theakstons casks full of beer for Christmas, which I think maybe cost around £120 or so.
I forget exactly.
But I made sure I was allowed to keep the cask, which they where ok with.
If you love Old Peculier - it tasted absolutely awesome to me, you could really taste vanilla from the wooden cask!
I'm planning on using it for some kind of stout.
