Berkshire Mountain Distillers has announced its newest endeavor, the Craft Brewers Whiskey Project, a project for which BMD will be distilling a multitude of different beers from a select group of craft brewers to be the foundation of a new whiskey. The resulting whiskey will then be aged at the distillery for an undetermined amount of time before it is released. Unlike BMD’s wildly popular Cask Finished Bourbon project that involved brewers such as Samuel Adams, Ommegang, Terrapin and Founders – where the cask finished bourbon was only available in the state of the brewery from whence the cask hailed – the whiskey from the Craft Brewers Whiskey Project will be available in multiple states. More information will be released as it is received.
