Description
From the heart of Kentucky, Lexington Brewing & Distilling Co. presents their renowned Kentucky Bourbon Ale—a unique specialty beer that marries the rich heritage of brewing and distilling. This ale is a testament to the distinct character forged in the Bluegrass State, where the art of beer and bourbon creation intertwine seamlessly. With an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 8.2% and an International Bitterness Unit (IBU) of 19, this ale is crafted for those who appreciate a smooth yet robust drink. The Kentucky Bourbon Ale captivates with its brilliant amber hue and tantalizing aroma. Expect a harmonious blend of malt sweetness and the unmistakable notes drawn from freshly decanted bourbon barrels. The subtleties of vanilla, caramel, and oak gracefully emerge, offering a complex palate that balances the warmth of bourbon with the refreshing qualities of a fine ale. Sipping this brew neat allows you to savor its intricate flavors fully, but serving it slightly chilled in a tulip glass can enhance its aromatic nuances and provide a fuller tasting experience. Although excellent on its own, the Kentucky Bourbon Ale also works well in a beer cocktail, where its bourbon-barrel undertones can add depth to a classic Whiskey Sour or complement the bitters in an Old Fashioned. For those who enjoy experimenting, try it in a Bourbon Barrel Shandy—a delightful fusion with fresh lemonade that emphasizes its sweet and oaky notes. Whether you're enjoying it straight or creatively mixed, the ale's versatile nature makes it a standout choice for enthusiasts and casual drinkers alike. For pairing, consider dishes that mirror its richness—think grilled meats, smoked cheeses, or even a dark chocolate dessert to complement its bourbon-infused sweetness. However you choose to enjoy it, Kentucky Bourbon Ale offers a unique opportunity to explore the melding of brewing and distilling excellence, capturing the spirit of Kentucky in every sip.

more bourbon than beer for me
Response from CBC Liquors, Westford
It hits hard on the whiskey side for sure. Next time maybe try Kentucky Vanilla Barrel Cream Ale if you want something lighter?

Shared with friends after poker night. They all said wow at the first sip, but a few thought it was too strong to have more than one. Still, fun change from IPAs.

Uncle Dave swore by this one so it ended up in my fridge. Big bourbon flavor, almost like sipping a whiskey instead of a beer. Glad I tried it, just wish the bottle was colder out of the gate.
