Mikeller is aging beers in Gran Marnier barrels, including an American wild ale.

Turns out Hill Farmstead is doing the same thing.

Turns out Gran Marnier barrels are not easily available. No surprise there.
I might be inspired to try to create a brew with Gran Marnier soaked chips in say, an imperial wit?

Any other suggestions for a base beer to soak and oak?
