These brand new, never used 5 Gallon White Oak Barrels are perfect for aging whiskey, bourbon, wine, cider and beer. Your beverage will pick up oak flavor during the aging process. Because these barrels are new, they will need to be swelled with hot water before filling.

Important notes: These barrels come with a wooden 1 5/16" bung. However, we recommend purchasing a #7 silicone bung, which can be cleaned and reused indefinitely. Barrel stand is not included with purchase.

Great quality product

Took a few days to seal up, but on day 5 I dumped the water and filled with Benchmark Full Proof. Barrel is great quality, shipping was relatively fast, and sealing the barrel was pretty straightforward and just needed patience.

I’m afraid this is a gateway, I’m already planning more projects!

Taking over a week to seal using EVERY method

Taking over a week to seal using EVERY method, still not sealing on the end. Good looking barrel for decor I guess.

Hi David, we are really sorry for the frustration. A new 5-gallon barrel can sometimes take a few days up to a week to seal, but if you are still seeing leaks beyond that then something is not right. That is not the experience we want for you. Please contact me at ethan@midwestbarrelco.com or call 402.904.3132 with order #2526966 as reference and we can discuss a solution.

We stand by our Damn. Good. Barrels.™ gaurantee and want you aging, not just decorating.

Too early for a full review

Too early for a full review. My plan is to use it for two years. Current thoughts. Appears to be well built. Leak free after 1 day - That is good. Not happy with size of bung hole - larger then desired. Plug is too flimsy and damaged the first night of use.

New 5 gal bar

Looks quality. Still a couple gallons short of product. Looking forward to fill day.

A couple gallons short today… but not for long! Appreciate you grabbing a barrel from us, Greg.
