Brown-Forman is the keeper of that tradition, in the form of four distilleries, three in Kentucky and, of course, the Jack Daniel’s Distillery in Tennessee. When a young Jack Daniel first learned the art of making whiskey under the tutelage of a soon-to-be ex-slave-turned-master-distiller, Nathan Nearest Green, neither could have imagined that the whiskey created would become synonymous with the tradition and preservation of some of the most historic distilleries in the world. While newly established distilleries may look to modern-day solutions for ricking, the name Brown-Forman evokes a history like no other, including that it is the only distillery company in the world to make its own barrels, which are stored in a range of distilleries, some with warehouses and barrel ricking systems dating back to the late 1800s. In that case, clients choose the company’s low-profile rack, known as two-barrel four-inch racks. Sometimes, Mikkelsen said, full access is less important than space. Mikkelsen said breweries and distilleries also use his company’s seven-inch two-barrel racks and another product known as Big Foot. The racking system is manufactured from stainless steel and is available in several color and coating options. The rack also features a storage-saving design in that it can be nested into a stack when empty. Unlike other systems, which are more like pallets between barrels and require a uniform barrel shape and size, Mikkelson said Barrel Master’s rack-on-rack function eliminates any barrel putting pressure on another below. An optional wheel design provides 180-degree barrel rotation in either direction. There is also the opportunity to stack barrels higher without compromising stability. The rack-on-rack design allows barrels to be more visible and accessible. The Barrel Master 30/53 allows barrels ranging in size from 30 to 53 gallons to be stored on the same rack. This is possible because there is no weight on each barrel.” The Barrel Master can also be bought with the barrels sitting on wheels for easy rotation if desired. “The Barrel Master is our most popular model for distilleries in growth since the user can mix and match sizes of barrels in a safe forklift-able stacking system. Mikkelsen told Beverage Master Magazine about one of the company’s most popular barrel systems for distillers expanding their operations. President and CEO Trygve Mikkelsen took over the company in 1993 and quickly recognized its potential in manufacturing barrel racks. It serves clients across the United States, with a significant client base in California, Texas and the Eastern U.S. Western Square Industries now manufactures a broad range of barrel racking systems for distillers, breweries, wineries, meaderies and cideries. The company originally catered to the agriculture and livestock industries, specializing in two main products, steel gates and corrals. Western Square Industries, headquartered in Stockton, California, has been in business for 43 years and is among the global leaders in its field. Racking keeps pressure off barrel staves, a problem that Stitzel and other early distillers learned could result in losing a barrel’s precious contents through leakage. Placing barrels on their sides, rather than upright, and supporting them underneath with either timber or metal, increases air circulation and space. Some 150 years later, the practice of racking barrels, also known as ricking, is an industry-standard. In 1879, distiller Frederick Stitzel patented a revolutionary method that put a new spin on how barrels for spirits and other crafted drinks are stored.
