Holy Goat: Goatsmasher Whisky BA English Barleywine (375ml)

Brewed using the finest of all barleywine malts, the rich malty Maris
Otter, in addition to amber and crystal malts, this beer was boiled for 3
hours to caramelise the sugars and produce additional depth of
flavour. It was transferred directly into freshly emptied whisky casks
for fermentation and maturation, comprising two barrels (ex-Girvan
distillery via Lady of the Glenn) and one butt (ex-Ben Nevis distillery).
Brewed in collaboration with our pals from the Grumpy Goat in
Reading, England this beer was originally brewed to celebrate their 10th
Birthday. Sadly, due to unforeseen circumstances, they had to close shop
before this beer could be released. Therefore, please toast with us to the
memory of the Grumpy Goat. The result is a supremely quaffable strong
amber ale, with notes of caramelised dates, toffee, oak, vinous tannin
and a smooth whisky finish.
