Journeyman Distillery & Friends: Barrel Aged Brewfest

Journeyman Distillery & Friends: Barrel Aged Brewfest

Journeyman Distillery is proud to host the 1st Journeyman & Friends Barrel-Aged Brewfest presented by Islay’s (I-La) Barrel. We are truly humbled by the interest and commitments from our friends in the brewing industry who have used many Journeyman Distillery whiskey barrels to age their fine barrel aged beer.  
100% of net proceeds goes to Islay’s Barrel, a 501c3 nonprofit organization, with a mission to extend summer program opportunities to South West Michigan children who, without assistance, would otherwise not have the means to enjoy. Through various fundraisers, the newly created Islay's Barrel raises money to send local recipients to summer programs.

25+ Breweries will be onsite bringing with them their choice selection of beer. They will also have a Journeyman Distillery barrel aged brew, exclusively made for this event!
