To replicate this at home, try soaking 1–2 oz. of oak chips or spirals in your favorite bourbon for a couple weeks. Then when fermentation is complete, rack into a secondary vessel on top of the bourbon soaked oak. I recommend tasting the beer every two to three days. It probably won’t take long for the beer to develop the subtle flavors that you’re looking for. Oak cubes are also an option but be aware that the entire process may take much longer when both soaking the oak in bourbon and aging the beer on the cubes. Package the beer as soon as it has developed the desired character. Allagash bottles/keg conditions, but feel free to package the beer any way you choose.” If the beer has been aging for several months, you can opt to add extra yeast if you plan to bottle condition this beer.
