It's easy to overlook the amount of time, energy, and love that goes into barrel-aged beers. Not to mention the patience as it rests for months, to years, waiting for the perfect time to shine. Barrel-Aged Beer Day is an opportunity to appreciate these beers and the effort that goes into them. While the official Barrel-Aged Beer Day is the first Friday of October (October 6, 2017 this year), we're celebrating Barrel-Aged Beer Day all week long with a special badge.

UPDATE: Due to an issue, around 53 new beers from The Bruery list were not included in the originial list. This has been fixed, and all users who checked in to beers from the list and didn't get the bage will be retroactive added.

You can unlock your very own "Barrel-Aged Beer Day (2017)" badge by checking ­in one (1) beer from the list of hundreds of barrel-aged beers from The Bruery or Bruery Terreux (list here) between October 6 - 13, 2017.
