Most brewers who use oak in the brewing process brew their beer first, then source barrels for aging. We recommend a holistic approach to brewing where oak barrel alternatives are considered in the planning stages as a flavoring ingredient.

Innerstave Oak Complements help to round out your traditional barrel program. They will allow you to get precise flavor profiles that are scalable, rather than forcing you to rely on used barrel sourcing every batch you brew.

Innerstave’s Fiber Infusion Technology can help you bring an aged spirit or wine barrel impact to your beers. The infusion process is precise and scalable and will take the hassle out of sourcing while putting you back in control of the flavors you impart in your brews.
