PROPRIETOR'S IS OUR WAY OF SAYING:
HEY CHICAGO, WE LOVE YOU.

In 1992, a new idea was born in Chicago: aging stout in bourbon barrels. That experiment became Bourbon County Brand Stout—a first-of-its-kind innovation that forever changed the beer world. Brewed and aged to mark Goose Island’s 1,000th batch, it quickly grew from a daring innovation into a renowned yearly release—and Chicagoans have embraced it with pride ever since.

To thank our city for their unwavering love, we created Prop Day: a celebration of Bourbon County Brand Stout and the community that made it iconic. Waiting until Black Friday to get a taste is hard. Prop Day gives you access to the new lineup ahead of their release. Thanks, Chicago, for making us who we are.
