Innis & Gunn Oak Aged Beer

Well we are back writing about beer, just because we haven’t had updates on the web page, doesn’t mean we haven’t been sampling some of the world’s finest brews.

This month in celebration of Paul and Fred’s trip to England and Scotland, we bring you the Innis & Gunn Oak Aged Beer.  A unique beer aged in ex-Bourbon barrels imported to the Innis & Gunn Edinburgh brewery from Kentucky, Tennessee.  This beer is aged for 77 days in oak, and the resultant flavours make the wait all worthwhile.  From every sip you get a distinctive oak with vanilla overtones complimenting a strong toffee and malt flavour.  Not a light weight beer by any stretch, with an alcohol content of 6.6%, so not one for the designated driver.

This ale is occasionally seen in good beer shops in Australia, if you see a pack grab it with both hands.

Cheers, Paul
