No idea how you managed to do this but I find it impossible. By the time you clear the path off of crates then run back to pick up the barrel then make it to the gate the soldiers will simply break it open and Ser Whestley will face his end. This is how I did it as my fighter: you pick up the barrel along the path to the gate and bring it to the stairs (otherwise it's detonated by the Griffin's landing), place it here and wait for Ser Cyrus to taunt the beast and once it lands quickly perform some strong output attack (Dragon's Maw and Cymbal onslaught made it for me) or just let yours pawns do something, they almost always manage to stagger griffin on that point. Once Cyrus is saved bring the barrel back and wait for the party to break through then, as you said, throw the barrel in Griffin's head to set him ablaze. Ser Whestley survived with like 1 hp after the drop. Luckily I had some party restoratives.
