Goose Island barrel program pumped out 1,200 to 1,500 barrels in 2011
A wrap-up of our mid-February report on Goose Island’s growing barrel program…
Just around the corner is Laffler’s newest space: a former auto body shop Goose Island recently took over to expand its barrel program as part of brewmaster emeritus Greg Hall’s plan to develop more high-end, sour beers.
"We already have the largest barrel program of a brewery in the U.S., so we’ll be quadrupling it this year," Laffler said, adding the program produced 1,200 to 1,500 barrels last year.

Blahhh, more Belgian sours, oh whoopie do! This program will fall apart, of course. The sour fad is so 2008.
