Old Forester Birthday Bourbon Comes With A Sweepstakes This Year
Today, Old Forester announces the highly-anticipated return of its most coveted expression, Birthday Bourbon.
This year the bourbon is 12 years old and 107 proof – and consumers can earn the opportunity to purchase this rare bottle via a national sweepstakes.
Hand-selected by Master Distiller Emeritus Chris Morris and Master Taster Melissa Rift, with aid from Assistant Master Distiller Caleb Trigo, the liquid came from 209 total barrels.
“Twelve years of maturation in Warehouses G and L has produced a rich and unique flavor profile perfect for this sought-after annual release, ” Trigo said.
Old Forester releases the limited-edition, vintage-dated bottle each September 2 to celebrate the birthday of the brand’s founder, George Garvin Brown.
Old Forester Birthday Bourbon will be available through an online sweepstakes running on OldForester.com August 15 through August 21, 2024. Anyone winning the opportunity to purchase a bottle through the sweepstakes must purchase and pick it up at the Old Forester Distillery in Louisville between September 5, 2024 and December 14, 2024 (see official rules for all terms and conditions). Each bottle of Old Forester Birthday Bourbon will retail for a suggested $199.99. Limit one per customer and credit card only.
