My God... you have to taste this one!!! I am not kidding at allI feel really plagiaristic about these tasting notes because they almost come straight from the bottle - but they are spot on. The colour is like a light pilsner, but then there's just this load of flavour and complexity. There's the toffee, paired with vanilla, and a richness almost like a scotch which probably comes from the oak barrel aging. A balanced sweetness in finish. This is an amazing beer.
On Innis & Gun (from company website)
Innis & Gunn oak-aged beer is like no other.
Our pioneering production process is unique to us, a world first. In fact, it was discovered by accident! Using oak to age beer is unheard of. But, the flavours imparted by the oak barrels (previously used to mature bourbon) lend an incredible depth of taste. Think vanilla, toffee and orange aromas, with a malty, lightly oaked palate; soothing and warm in the finish. There is nothing like this among mass produced beers.
