Wilderness Trail

Wilderness Trail Sweet Mash Whiskey!

Wilderness Trail is at the vanguard of Kentucky’s sweet mash bourbon revival and that’s thanks to how the distillery came to be founded.

Wilderness Trail "Yellow" Wheated Bourbon Bottled in Bond...$49.99

Compare to $56.99 at Total Wine and More
Sweet Mash

Our high in small grain WHEATED Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskeys are offered as a Small Batch – Bottled in Bond. The Small Batch selection offers nuances only premium cooper select barrels can create using 18-month-old air-dried staves. After all, the barrels impart a large part of the flavor. What is a Small Batch? At Wilderness Trail, it’s 18 barrels per batch, which was the result of one fermenter.  In addition, the Bottled in Bond gives you assurance the Bourbon was properly distilled, aged between 5-6 years and bottled by us under the supervision of the U.S. Government at 100 proof.
What is the mashbill?
Our Bottled in Bond release mash bill is 64 percent corn, 24 percent wheat and 12 percent malted barley using our yeast strains. This is one of the highest ratios of wheat used in a Bourbon made in Kentucky. We entered the cooper select, #4 char barrel at 110 proof after coming off the still around 137 proof. All of our whiskeys are aged and matured on our 168-acre campus inside any one of our rickhouses. 

Wilderness Trail "Black" High Rye Bourbon Bottled in Bond...$49.99

Compare to $59.99 at Total Wine and More

Sweet Mash
Our High Rye small grain Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskeys are offered as a Small Batch Bottled in Bond, up to 18 barrels per batch, which was the result of one fermenter. The goal of the Small Batch is to capture the total essence of more complex notes from multiple barrels from distillate of the same fermenter. 
What is the mashbill?
Our Small Batch release mash bill is 64 percent corn, 24 percent rye and 12 percent malted barley using our yeast strains. We entered the cooper select, toasted and #4 char barrel at 110 proof after coming off the still around 137 proof. All of our whiskeys are aged and matured on our 168-acre campus inside any one of our six rickhouses. We have more than 100,000 barrels aging onsite.

Wilderness Trail Rye Whiskey Bottled in Bond...$49.99

Sweet Mash
Our Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskeys are offered as Small Batch, Bottled in Bond. Once our traditional sweet mash process is distilled in our column stills, we enter the barrel at the lowest entry proof we know of in Kentucky. We barrel at 100 proof and 105 proof to highlight the balance of the distillate and alternate solubility expression we get from the barrel at a lower proof.
Our three-grain recipe is 56 percent rye, 33 percent corn and 11 percent malted barley. Our rye mash bill is one we created for a broader balance of flavor to offset the typical high ryes commonly found. We use Kentucky-grown Heritage rye from our local KY Proud farm. We enter the new, air-dried #4 char, 53-gallon barrels at 100 proof and 105 proof for our Rye Whiskey and age until maturity in our barrelhouse. We age our Rye Whiskeys on the upper floors of our rickhouses for a minimum of 4 years with regular expressions expected to be between 6 and 8 years of age.

Surly Abrasive Double IPA...$14.99 / 4pk 16oz cans
We originally brewed this beer at the end of 2008 to bid farewell to growler sales, only to underestimate the demand for the first double IPA in Minnesota. We brewed the beer again in spring 2009 and the rest is IPA history. Also history: 16 Grit, the beer’s first handle and a size of abrasive grit used at the old abrasives factory that houses the original Surly mothership in Brooklyn Center.

Surly Furious IPA...$9.99 / 6pk 12oz cans
Surly is called “Surly” due to our inability to find a good beer in town. Furious is one of the first beers we brewed to rectify that situation. The rest is history.
People ask us to describe Furious all the time. It’s not quite like any other IPA out there. We give them the flavor notes and the hop profile, but it never seems like it’s enough. What makes Furious Furious? Let’s try this: You know that feeling when you do something that pushes you to your absolute limit? And people think you’re a little off your nut for even doing it? And you kind of agree with them, but goddammit, it’s getting done? And then you fucking DO IT? And there’s no one there to see it but you and the dog so you high-five the dog?

Surly Selects centers some of our heaviest, hoppiest hitters. We’re taking four of our flagships and filing them all in one box full of flavorful fulfillment. Simply put, Surly Selects stands out.
Your selections:

• Furious—the beer that built Surly. Aggressively hopped and citrusy with a caramel malt backbone, it’s unlike any other IPA out there. It’s Furious.
• Logic Bomb—the most popular new Minnesota craft beer of 2022, this approachable pale ale bursts with juicy hop flavor.
• Controlled Chaos—double dry-hopped and heaving with a cacophony of citrusy flavor, this West Coast-style IPA finishes dry with just a touch of bitterness, just like the music that inspired it.
• One Man Mosh Pit–An absurd dose of Amarillo, Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic dry-hopping hoists this IPA above the fray. Juicy and hazy, it’s the perfect soundtrack to the music in your head.

Kilchoman Single Malt Whiskey PX Sherry Cask Matured 2023 Edition

Kilchoman Single Malt Scotch PX Sherry Cask Matured...$119.99
Matured for a minimum of five years in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, the first limited edition to be fully-matured in this cask type  A 61 cask vatting matured for a minimum of five years in Pedro Ximénez Sherry casks previously used by Bodega José y Miguel Martin, Jerez, Spain.

• 23,000 bottles Worldwide
• 1,980 bottles for the US
• 50% abv.
• 50 PPM

“The 2023 PX Sherry Cask Matured release is our first limited edition to be fully matured in PX casks. Some might consider five years to be a short maturation, but these PX hogsheads give such a rich and sweet character, shorter maturation is the only option to maintain a good balance of flavor. Here, the citrus sweetness and peat smoke of our spirit balance beautifully with the PX character to create a multi-dimensional whisky, rich and sweet with hints of light citrus sweetness and waves of maritime peat smoke.”
~ANTHONY WILLS, KILCHOMAN FOUNDER


Kilchoman Single Malt Scotch FINO Sherry Cask Matured...$119.99
Following on from the success of our previous edition of Fino Sherry Matured in 2020 – which was Kilchoman’s first global release of that style of cask – our journey with Fino has continued over the years.

Closely monitored by Anthony, the 2023 limited edition Fino Sherry Cask Matured becomes our second Fino release. Anthony and Robin have hand-selected a total of 20 Fino Sherry Butts of which the spirit was distilled in 2018. Fino provides our spirit with an entirely alternative maturation style; one which isn’t often seen from the distillery with more emphasis typically placed on Oloroso Sherry casks, predominantly used for our expressions of Sanaig and Loch Gorm. As ever, the Sherry butts were purchased from Bodega Jose y Miguel Martin (Spain) for their impeccable standard. Each cask selected for Fino Cask Matured has been chosen for its quality and individuality. Combining 20 of these casks together after a minimum of five years of maturation has developed a dry salinity which is balanced with a green fresh fruit influence and elongated delicate Islay peat smoke.
