The Innis & Gunn Brewing Company Ltd

Innis & Gunn is Scotland’s most awarded and best loved independent brewer. A unique discovery, our beer’s distinctive depth of flavour owes a debt to good fortune. In 2002 a whisky distiller approached us for help seasoning their oak casks with the sweet, malty character of a full-flavoured beer. Eager to assist, they created a custom-made recipe and the resulting brew was put to bed in their barrels. 30 days on, the beer was thrown out and the whisky went in. During this process the scotch acquired extra qualities from the beer infused wooden casks, resulting in a greatly admired dram.
