Commercial Description:
We soaked an oak wood spiral in Jim Beam whisky then added it to our McK’s Scottish Ale. The result is a delicious malty beer with hints of coffee, oak and undertones of whisky.

Feb 10, 2009  
On draught during the Winterfest 2009 in St. Paul, Minnesota. Pours a clear copper amber brew with a thin off-white head that quickly dissipates to a fine film. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, some toffee and a light roasted nuts and vanilla. Taste is very little carbonation, medium bodied with some flavors of roasted caramel malt, toffee, vanilla and a light bourbon. Finish is slightly dry and metallic with some aftertaste flavors of caramel malt and vanilla/bourbon flavors.
