7.9% • GREENER FUTURES PROJECT
This Greener Futures offering features a blend of whisky barrel aged Strong Patrick and our flagship beer, Lug Tread. The blend showcases how barrel aging can add rich dimensions of complexity without sacrificing finesse. A mild tart, fruity character integrates well with the warm spirit notes in this release.
Pours copper orange with a tight white foam. The aroma is reminiscent of trifle; offering up impressions of berries, custard and liquor. The flavour is slightly tart, woody tannins provide structure for a fruity, creamy and pleasantly warm aftertaste.
