Unleashing Flavor: The New Westward Whiskey Boilermaker Bundle
Westward Whiskey is back in the spotlight with an exciting collaboration between three passionate entities – Westward Whiskey, Stomping Ground, and Proud Mary Coffee. They have teamed up to unveil the Westward Whiskey Small Batch Selection Strong Ale with Coffee Cask Finish, a unique spirit that harmonizes the rich flavors of whiskey and coffee, aged in barrels that previously made headlines with their joint 2022 venture. This delightful spirit will be showcased alongside Stomping Ground’s 2024 release, the Whiskey Barrel-Aged Strong Ale with Coffee known as ‘Into The Wood’.
The creative venture stemmed from Westward Whiskey’s decision to share its American oak barrels with breweries, a gesture that led to the crafting of the Westward Whiskey Barrel-Aged Ale with Coffee. The partnership is a testament to innovation, with Proud Mary Coffee’s robust beans blending beautifully with the malty aspects of the ale, creating a flavorful balance that showcases the strengths of each contributor. As the cycle continues, the barrels that once cradled this delicious ale have now matured Westward Whiskey for a full 18 months, ultimately leading to the development of the Strong Ale with Coffee Cask Finish.
Celebrating collaboration in whiskey and brewing.
“Though together our collaborations yield delicious results, we’re proud to share so many similarities with our friends at Stomping Ground and Proud Mary – most significant of which are our ethos and desire to innovate,” shared Westward’s Master Blender, Miles Munroe. This sentiment captures the essence of their work: a commitment to push boundaries and deliver unique experiences for discerning palates.
What Makes This Whiskey Stand Out
The Westward Whiskey Small Batch Selection Strong Ale with Coffee Cask Finish is not just an ordinary whiskey. The careful selection of the casks – previously used for brewing beers infused with Proud Mary Coffee – plays a pivotal role in crafting its intricate profile. Each sip reveals notes of chocolate, coffee, and a hint of spice, it’s as though the ale influences seep through, providing a delightful depth.
Consumers can expect to experience flavors that dance on the tongue, characteristic of Westward’s expertise in creating American-style single malts. This whiskey aims to thrill with layers of taste that evolve with every pour, making it an exceptional addition to any whiskey enthusiast’s collection.
The Future of Whiskey and Beer Collaborations
As the line between spirits and craft beers continues to blur, collaborations like this one signify a growing trend within the industry. The creativity inspired by partnerships allows for innovations that not only aid in product variety but also enrich the experiences that consumers crave.
