Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey to Launch This Spring

February 14, 2024 By Dow Scoggins

Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey to Launch This SpringYellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey – the newest full-time member of the Yellowstone brand family and the latest inspiration from Limestone Branch Distillery Master Distiller Stephen Beam – is set to hit retail shelves in the coming months. Aged four years and bottled at 108 proof (54% ABV), Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey will be available nationwide starting in March at a suggested retail price of $54.99.

Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey boasts a 100% barley malt mash bill, which yields tasting notes that are a unique departure from its sister spirit, Yellowstone Select Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

Consumers of Yellowstone American Single Malt can expect a nose of cereal malt and honey, with a hint of peach blossom; a sweet, medium body with notes of honey, pear, stone fruit, and dates; and a finish that contains notes of oak, with hints of cinnamon and English Walnuts.

“I’m proud of the success Yellowstone Select Bourbon has enjoyed since 2015 when I introduced my take on my family’s historic brand,” said Beam. “And I’m proud to once again continue my family’s tradition of innovation with the launch of Yellowstone American Single Malt. This is a brand-new category of American whiskey, and our offering is sure to become a favorite among Yellowstone Bourbon fans and fans of American Single Malt Whiskeys alike.”

Packaging of Yellowstone American Single Malt includes a more design-forward label featuring the brand’s iconic Lower Falls artwork and a more prominent version of the Yellowstone brand name, as well as blue top-wrap to differentiate Yellowstone American Single Malt from other Yellowstone variants.

The Yellowstone brand continues its tradition of supporting its namesake park through an ongoing partnership with the National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA), an independent organization working to strengthen and protect our national parks. To date, Yellowstone has donated nearly $370,000 to the organization, and the brand is committed to continuing the partnership.

About Limestone Branch Distillery

Limestone Branch Distillery, nestled in the rolling hills of Lebanon, Kentucky, was founded in 2011 by seventh-generation Beam family distillers Stephen and Paul Beam, continuing a remarkable legacy that traces back over 220 years to bourbon pioneer Jacob Beam and ancestors like Joseph Washington Dant and Minor Case Beam. Drawing on centuries of family expertise interrupted only by Prohibition, the brothers established this intimate craft distillery to honor their heritage while utilizing local limestone-filtered water and grains for authentic small-batch production. In 2015, they revived the iconic Yellowstone Bourbon brand—originally created in 1872 and named after America’s first national park—bringing it back into Beam family hands through a partnership that has since elevated its status among whiskey enthusiasts worldwide. Today, under Master Distiller Stephen Beam, Limestone Branch remains a beloved stop on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail Craft Tour, offering hands-on experiences that celebrate tradition, innovation, and the enduring spirit of Kentucky distilling.

The portfolio at Limestone Branch Distillery showcases masterful Kentucky straight whiskeys crafted with precision and family-inspired recipes, appealing to both traditionalists and adventurous palates. Flagship Yellowstone Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a blend of 4- and 7-year-old stocks at 93 proof, delivers rich notes of caramel, vanilla, and oak spice, perfect for sipping neat or in classic cocktails. The acclaimed Minor Case Straight Rye Whiskey, finished in cream sherry casks, pays tribute to pre-Prohibition styles with warm rye spice balanced by dried fruit and cherry undertones. Annual Yellowstone Limited Edition releases feature innovative finishes—like brandy, cognac, or Amarone casks—in extra-aged bourbons for complex, collectible expressions, while the newer Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey introduces a 100% malted barley profile with bold, floral, and citrus-forward character at 108 proof. These whiskeys embody craftsmanship and heritage, making Limestone Branch a standout in premium American spirits.
