Funny you should mention that
I was gonna suggest this beer yesterday in the Drambuie thread. Delicious stuff, and they do a few different varieties. The black labelled 'Rum Cask' version is the best i've tried. Pretty strong as well!

I think I read somewhere
that it was created almost by accident - as a by product of another process. Whatever its origins I fackin LAV it. Particularly when they brought out those big fucking bottles of it.

We took a whole load of bottles
with us when we went camping last year, ended up pure rudderless. Definitely try and track down the other varieties, well worth it.

it was an accident
at least, according to the brewery. a distillery wanted to do a whisky finished in beer casks (you see all those ones finished in sherry or bourbon casks, so why the fuck not). so they made some beer, then after aging it, were going to pitch it out, and send the casks to the distillery. then they realized that the beer was tasty.
