"Draw Together is made from a blend of diverse beer styles from our aged barrel stock. This edition is a blend of two distinct barrel fermented beers: California chardonnay barrel-fermented strong golden ale, brewed in April 2020. Remarkably clean tasting from the barrel. Minimal funk and fairly low acididty. Fairly boozy on the nose, with hints of apricot and creamy American oak. Lots of interesting aromatics and satisfyingly rich, but a tad flabby on the palate. Bordeaux barrel fermented red rye beer, brewed in May 2022. Lots of sweet red fruit and a dry cocoa finish. A touch more acid than the golden ale, but still quite restrained. Fairly high barrel tannin, that when comined with the drying character from the roasted malts makes this barrel alone feel rather thin. Again, lots of interesting aromatics but not a complete drink on its own. The finished beer was primed with a good dose of sugar to produce lively carbonation, to give this fairly weighty beer an extra lift."

"Islay Brut is a blend of five barrels from four separate worts produced in June and November 2019, and May and October 2020. They fermented in small Islay whisky barrels, imparting aromas of maritime peat. The blend was made in August 2022 and refermented with golden caster sugar for a further year to produce a strong and dry beer. Finally, it received a large dose of bottle primings to produce a Champagne type carbonation.".
