Beer - Innis & Gunn Oak Aged Beer 6.6%

This unusual beer is an offshoot of the finishing of whisky in ale casks.  The malty ale is matured in casks which are then used by William Grant for an Ale Cask reserve product.

Nose:   toffee and treacle, rich and something sharp cutting through, could be hops I guess.

Pallet:  so creamy and toffee like, clawing but not overly so.  

Finnish:  like eating thauntons toffee with a hoppy edge rather long and luxuriant

Comment: a good beer for Christmas and a treat.
