Innis & Gunn Original (Scotland)


I was always told to be wary of beers that come in clear packaging. In this case you can ignore the warning.

Innis & Gunn is a very rare beer in Australia, only a handful of places in Australia sell it, and only sporadically (I picked this up in Cloudwine Cellars on Clarendon St in Sth Melbourne)

It is matured in whiskey barrels (Bourbon, judging by the taste) and the flavours gleaned from it are unbelievable. It's so warm and smooth, and the vanilla flavours are unlike anything I've ever tasted in a beer of this type.

This is one of the beers you must drink before you die.
