Description
Goodwood Brewing is a production brewery located in the heart of downtown Louisville. The brewery is dedicated to making beers that have been touched by wood; whether in reclaimed oak casks once used to house bourbon, red wine, and brandy or seasoned on oak, poplar or ash. Goodwood’s "shade-grown beers" are all touched by the natural gradations of reclaimed casks and other wood types for flavorful expressions that are unique to Goodwood. Just like the bourbon Kentucky is famous for, all of Goodwood’s beers begin with limestone water. The gents behind Goodwood are some of Louisville’s longest-serving brewing veterans, running production breweries here since 2001.
Goodwood Brewing Co. offers brewery tours, private event rental space, live music, yoga and other weekly & monthly events in the taproom. The 200 year old building with a fully renovated Taproom is conveniently located at the edge of NuLu, and it's the perfect blend of historic, industrial and cool!

Bottle pour. Almost black. Strong bourbon and black patent malt aroma. I like that this is not syrupy sweet. Lighter body but loss of flavor. Char, notes of caramel, raisin, bourbon.

Poured a clear gold. Some skunkiness. Really kind of tasted like a boring mass market lager. No ash that I could find.

Good lord, not sure went wrong here. Bottle. The pour and look are fine but fizzy. Granny smith apple vinegar with hints of malt and coffee. Tastes like somebody spit inside of a gueze bottle and mixed it with a porter.

Bottle. So this has "poplar" in it. Not sure what that's suppose to taste like but it seems like a regular, though good tasting, IPA to me.
