Do any of the breweries sell off old but serviceable barrels these days?? I would like a 9 gal firkin...I used to have one years ago which I put my brew in but long since gone.
I tried Wadworth who are just down the road from me but they have stopped using them and only use metal casks now.
I bought one of those 25 litre oak ones...but they have no character and are "sterile" in their newness.
Any ideas please.
