"Drink This" Innis & Gunn with Owner & Brewmaster Dougal Sharp

Owner & Brewmaster Dougal Sharp of Innis & Gunn: Oak Aged Beer talks with John Hedlund and Drink This about how he discovered this unique brew. The Innis and Gunn story: A character is born. It all began when a famous whisky distiller contacted Master Brewer Dougal Sharp to tell him that they wanted to produce an ale-finished whisky. Many other brewers and distillers had tried to make ale finished whisky but none had succeeded. Dougal proposed a special recipe and a special technique. He created a unique ale to impart a smooth, beery character to the oak barrels. This would in turn flavour the maturing whisky. The distillers were delighted that the process worked and the resulting Ale Cask reserve Whisky was a real success. It was only many months later, after thousands of gallons of beer had been used to season the oak barrels (then tragically, thrown away), that Dougal received a call that would change everything. "You have got to taste this beer that we are pouring away. The workers have sampled it and they say it tastes absolutely delicious," Get the full story here: http://www.innisandgunn.com/~/media/Files/IGstory.ashx http://Innisandgunn.com http://DrinkThis.tv @DrinkThisTweets All material within this video is owned and produced by John Hedlund and Exit 172 Productions, LLC.
