Specialty Beers
I just picked up an interesting bottle of beer at the liquor store… Innis & Gunn Oak Aged Beer.
As a unique way to celebrate Canada Day 2009, this special Innis & Gunn beer has been matured using Canadian whisky barrels. Each of the 150 barrels of limited edition beer, was carefully matured for 71 days prior to release.
The Side Of The Box
Here is what was printed on the side of the box:

Canadian whisky barrels are packed with delicious flavours, locked deep inside the oak grain. To make this special Innis & Gunn EXCLUSIVELY for our friends in Canada, and to celebrate Canada Day 2009, we selected and imported to Scotland the very best of these rare barrels. Then over many weeks of maturation or specially brewed beer slowly unlocked the flavours from deep inside the oak, the beer growing in character with every hour that passed.
Only when we deemed the beer to have matured to perfection did we bottle and release it.
We think the result is absolutely delicious and we hope you enjoy this beer as much as we do.
A word or two about the beer – to complement the flavours from very rare Canadian whisky barrels we have created a unique recipe with the addition of some slightly kilned Malted Rye which imparts the fuity toffee-raisin character and deep red hue.
The first shoots of the oak trees that made the barrels that we used to mature this beer emerged from the ground in the mid to late 18th Century, around the same time that Canada Day was first celebrated.

Tasted Like Rum-Beer!
I had a friend over and we sampled the bottle of Oak-Aged Beer. After our first sip, we both remarked – RUM!
I’m not a Whisky or Rum drinker, so my palete is untrained, but after a few more sips of this great tasting beer, I came to realize that Rum doesn’t taste like Rum… Rum tasks like OAK!
Delightful Celebration of Canada Day
The story about the age of the oak trees made this a very fitting beverage to raise a toast to our fine country – Canada, on her birthday!

Coopers Dark Ale
Rich mahogany colour and a creamy head. Roasted malt aromas with a hint of chocolate, generous mouthfeel dominated by roasted malt flavours, sufficient hop bitterness to give balance and a dry finish. A favourite amongst dark beer drinkers.

Don’t be fooled by cheap imitations. The Coopers Micro Brewery Kit produces 6 gallons of high quality beer vs most other guys’ 2 or 3 gallons.
