Description:
Ola Dubh (or 'Black Oil') is a collaboration between Harviestoun Brewery and Highland Park, Distiller of the Year*. It is based on Harviestoun's award-winning Old Engine Oil. With more than a stylistic nod to the classic Imperial Porters (and Stouts) of the nineteenth century, this deliciously rich, dark, 8% a.b.v. beer is the first ale to be aged in malt whisky casks from a named distillery and, with traceable casks and numbered bottles, the rst with genuine provenance.
This beer is made in small batches aged in casks formerly used to mature Highland Park 16 Year Old Ola Dubh is, in the words of beer afcionado Owen D.L. Barstow: "The most interesting new British beer I have tried in years."
