Notes

Delve into the thrilling world of whisky and beer pairing with A Society Oktoberfest! Stage your own tasting at home with five unique single casks to match with five different styles of beer or simply settle in for a first-class flight of single cask whiskies perfect for the season. Either way, your palate comes out a winner! Start off with Cask No. 28.57 Scrambled heather for a ‘Spicy & Dry’ cask to pair with a classic lager. Clean, slightly malty suds with spicy aromas in the dram make for a happy palate and a perfect opener to the tasting. Turn up the hops a notch with a pale ale to pair with Cask No. 48.124 A carpenter's bench where the citrusy confection from this spicy & sweet whisky will be perfectly suited for a lightly hopped pale ale. Crank the hops to eleven when Cask No. 26.168 A rustling through the dunes matches buttery texture, vanilla, chocolate and spices with a robustly hoppy IPA. The aromatically intense tropical notes of the beer and equally intense expression of the malt are a sensory match made in heaven. Now we enter a dark world of darker beer with our last two casks. Grab a creamy stout and Cask No. 53.365 Firecracker roll to experience a culinary delight of smoked meat and seafood notes in the whisky that effortlessly complement the lightly hoppy cereal character of the stout. Finally, we turn to the richest beer yet… porter! Heavily peated whisky packs a serious punch and benefits from the deep and dark character of porter. Cask No. 122.40 Smoky to a tee lives up to its name, offering copious amounts of breakfast cakes, dark fruits and loads of smoke that will provide a hedonistic pairing with a chocolatey porter. This duo will prove to be a bold and rewarding one for a memorable flavour finale!
