Buckeye Beer Engine
‘OLA DUBH’ TAPPING THIS SATURDAY, MAY 17TH, 2:00PM
April 22, 2008
We’ve had some rarities over the last ten year’s in the beer business, but this may be the rarest we’ve offered. OLA DUBH aka “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 rest with genuine provenance.”
The cask we are obtaining is matured in 30 Year Old Highland Park
“Highland Park 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky was named Import Malt Whisky of the Year 2005 by Malt Advocate; it displays complex aromatic spices with notes of dark orange chocolate.”
Tickets are available at the BEER ENGINE now at $10 a piece. The pour is 10-12 ounces. This is pricey one for sure. We’re just glad to have access to these European gems.
The tapping begins at 2:00PM on Saturday, May 17th. You don’t have to arrive that early, If you bought a ticket, the beer will not run out, we will only sell so many tickets.
