Second Round for Dram Fine Beer
Collaboration
A dram
fine beer collaboration between Perthshire-based craft beer maker Inveralmond
Brewery and The Glenturret Distillery is enjoying a second round of success
after a new batch was released due to popular demand.
The brewery and the distillery have
issued a second batch of Ooskabeer, which sold out just weeks after being
launched last November. Ooskabeer blends the distilling skills of The
Glenturret Distillery, home to The Famous Grouse Experience in Crieff, with the
brewing skills of Inveralmond, located in nearby Perth, to produce a slowly
matured beer infused with the delicate aromas and flavours of whisky.
Inveralmond provided premium Scotch Ale which was then slowly matured in
Glenturret’s whisky barrels.
Ooskabeer Batch #2 has
been partly distributed in Switzerland, with the remaining 100 cases available
for sale direct to the public by Inveralmond and Glenturret Distillery. After
the success of Ooskabeer Batch #1, Inveralmond is encouraging craft beer lovers
to get their orders in quickly.
Stuart Cassells, General
Manager of Glenturret Distillery commented:
“Ooskabeer is
the perfect coming together of two Perthshire companies who live and breathe quality
products and heritage. Glenturret provided the casks while Inveralmond Brewery
added their brewing expertise and a premium Scotch Ale into the mix. We’re
always looking to demonstrate the agility of Glenturret as a small craft
producer and Ooskabeer was a great success, having been snapped up by
distributors in the UK and Europe. The infusion of malt whisky gives the beer
an extra warmth and richness. Such was the demand that we’ve launched Batch #2,
which we know is going to be just as popular with whisky fans as with beer fans
who have heartily embraced the brew.”
