November 18, 2015 PHOENIX, AZ- Goose Island Brewing Company and Hensley Beverage Company, are pleased to announce the return of Goose Island “Black Friday,” a celebration of the Arizona release of the 2015 vintage of the Goose Island Bourbon County Brands. Highly sought after, the 2015 Bourbon County line will introduce a new look, in addition of three new Bourbon County variants, Regal Rye Bourbon County Brand Stout, Proprietor’s Bourbon County Brand Stout, and Rare Bourbon County Stout.

“We extremely grateful to be able to share these delicious beers with our friends in the Arizona craft community,” said Nick Kieffer, Marketing Manager at Hensley Beverage Company. “Goose Island continues a long history of setting the standard when it comes to barrel aging, and this year’s vintage is no different. Especially exciting are the new variants- both the Regal Rye and Rare are sure to be immediate favorites and a top highlight of 2015 beer releases in Arizona.”

The 2015 Goose Island Bourbon County Brands will be available in limited quantities in both draught and bottle packaging at select retail locations at different times throughout the year.

To celebrate the release of the 2015 Bourbon County variants, Goose Island and Hensley Beverage Company have partnered with five Phoenix area craft beer locations for special “Black Friday” events where Bourbon County brands will be available for on site or take home enjoyment.
