I brought you the original story a few days ago, and now we have the official press release for New Holland Beer Barrel Bourbon.  This from New Holland:

New Holland Artisan Spirits announces today the introduction of Beer Barrel Bourbon™ to its line of Michigan-made premium spirits. Beer Barrel Bourbon is the result of an innovative technique, aging or “finishing” bourbon in New Holland’s own Dragon’s Milk® beer barrels for 90 days. This process offers a final flavor that is more round, rich and pleasing, a result appreciated by everyone, including whiskey connoisseurs.

ABOUT
Many craft brewers will attest that whiskey barrels make great beer, and our Dragon’s Milk, as stout aged in bourbon barrels, is a delicious example. Beer Barrel Bourbon goes to show that the opposite is also true; beer barrels make remarkable whiskey.

Beer Barrel Bourbon is first aged in new American oak barrels for several years, before a three month beer-y slumber. The beer-barrel aging lends biscuity notes and a smooth malt character to the robust whiskey tones of toffee and caramel.
