In Edinburgh, a whisky producer approached Innis & Gunn with a request to test how beer tasted after ageing in used bourbon barrels - the result was so popular that the brewery started brewing beer for the barrels instead.

Like the world's great wine and whisky producers, Innis & Gunn strives for flavour depth, complexity and body in every beer it makes, and Original is defined by exactly this approach.

Out in the fields around Hordain, beer has been brewed since 1885, in a small farmhouse brewery where time has almost stood still. But one night something strange crept into the kettles - a black, heavy porter with aliens and planets painted on the label, as if the brewery itself had received a visit from outer space.

Expert description of La Choulette Black Choulette Alien Porter

La Choulette was founded in 1885 by Isly Dubois, a cooper from Hordain in northern France, and is still run today in an old-fashioned, traditional farmhouse style. The brewery is best known for its Bières de Garde, but with Black Choulette Alien Porter it shows a completely different, darker side. Alain Dhaussy took over the brewery in the late 1970s and carried the old craft tradition forward - his grandfather had also been a brewer there.

Black Choulette is a powerful, top-fermented porter at 8%, leaning towards the robust Baltic Porter style. It's deeply roasted at its base with clear vanilla sweetness layered on top, and its round, creamy body makes it one of the more surprising bottles in the brewery's otherwise classic range. The alien and starry-sky label is a welcome wink from a brewery that's otherwise true to the soil beneath its feet.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Heavy and roasted with notes of coffee beans and dark caramel, with a sweet, creamy vanilla aroma lurking behind to soften it all.

Taste

In the mouth you meet roasted coffee and caramelised sugar, sliding into a soft, almost dessert-like vanilla. Some also find a hint of cinnamon in the background.

Finish

Long and creamy with a light sweetness that lingers, while the roasted notes fade slowly away.

Three kinds of beans, one heavy stout - Lervig from Stavanger has built 3 Bean Stout around a simple idea: coffee shouldn't just sit on top of the beer, it should be part of its backbone.

Expert description of Lervig 3 Bean Stout

Lervig is one of Norway's most acclaimed breweries, known for an experimental approach to especially strong stouts. 3 Bean Stout is the brewery's take on an imperial stout, where the name refers to the use of three different coffee beans in the brewing process. At 12% ABV, it is a powerful beer offering marked depth and complexity.

The roasted malt base provides a solid foundation of dark chocolate and roasted grain, while the three coffee varieties layer on further dimensions of coffee character - from bright, tart fruitiness to deep, bitter roast. The result is a full, intense stout built for slow enjoyment.

Roasted coffee and dark chocolate, with deep notes of roasted malt.

In the dark beneath Lervig's brewhouse in Stavanger, some barrels rest longer than others. Fable is one of them - allowed to sit year after year, while the port and bourbon slowly write themselves into the beer. This isn't a beer you rush through. It's a beer you listen to.

Expert description of Lervig Fable By Rackhouse Imperial Stout

Fable is part of Lervig's Rackhouse series, where the Stavanger brewery indulges its passion for barrel ageing to the fullest. The base is a powerful Imperial Stout, which has then rested for a full three years in the dark - first in port wine barrels from Portugal, then in bourbon barrels from Kentucky. The two barrel types meet and merge in the beer, and the result is a deep, complex stout carrying traits of both worlds: the port's sweet, winey depth and the bourbon's warm, smoky sweetness.

Rackhouse is Lervig's dedicated line for barrel-aged beers, where time and wood are just as important ingredients as malt and hops. Fable is among the more ambitious releases in the series - a beer that takes patience to brew, and rewards the same patience in whoever drinks it.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Dark chocolate and stewed fruit greet you first, with a sweet, almost syrupy aroma of port. Beneath it lies vanilla from the bourbon barrels, soft and round, together with a hint of oak.

Taste

Full-bodied and dessert-like, with dark chocolate up front followed by stewed fruit and a warm, port-like sweetness. The bourbon gives the beer body and a lightly smoky caramel note that ties it all together.

Finish

Long and soft, with a finish of vanilla, dark chocolate and a final hint of red-wine-like fruit sweetness that lingers.

Expert description of Lervig Foeder Abricots

Lervig Foeder Abricots is a Norwegian specialty beer from the brewery Lervig in Stavanger, part of the brewery's Foeder series, where the beer is aged in large wooden vessels (foeders) together with apricots. Lervig is Norway's largest independent microbrewery, known for spanning everything from accessible pilsners to complex barrel-aged sours.

The apricots add a tart fruitiness that plays against the character given by the barrel ageing, resulting in a beer with both depth and fresh acidity.

Tasting Notes

Ripe apricot and a hint of wood.

Tart apricot fruitiness, balanced by the character of the barrel.

From Stavanger comes a stout that doesn't try to be extreme for the sake of it - Konrads is Lervig's take on a classic stout with a Scandinavian touch, where softness is the keyword.

Expert description of Lervig Konrads Stout

This craft beer from Lervig is a perfect combination of the brewery's classic stout tradition with a Scandinavian touch. Konrads is brewed with a large proportion of dark malt and the right water chemistry to achieve the perfect, soft mouthfeel with notes of liquorice and coffee.

At 10.4% ABV, it is a powerful stout, but the focus lies on texture and balance rather than pure strength. That makes Konrads a stout that appeals broadly to both newcomers and experienced stout lovers who appreciate a softer, more rounded style.

Tasting Notes

Liquorice and coffee, with a deep, dark malt character.

Soft and round with liquorice, coffee and a solid malt sweetness.

An emptied whisky barrel is never quite empty. There's always something left in the wood - rye, fire, a little caramel from the last round - and that's the residue Lervig chases when they fill their darkest beer into used barrels and let time do the rest.

Expert description of Lervig Off The Rack Finnish Rye Whisky By Rackhouse

Off The Rack is Lervig's barrel-ageing series under the Rackhouse programme. The Stavanger brewery takes their most powerful beer and puts it into freshly emptied spirit barrels, and this release is the second chapter in the line, aged on Finnish rye whisky barrels. The base is an Imperial Stout brewed on water, barley, oats, hops and yeast, and the beer has spent 20 months on the barrels - long enough for both the rye's spiced character and the whisky's spirit notes to settle into the beer.

It's a single batch. Once it's sold, it won't come again. Lervig has marked it vegan, so no animal-derived fining agents are involved.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Dark cocoa and roasted malt first, then a mild tobacco note, and behind it all lies the rye whisky - warm, spiced, a hint of oak.

Taste

Heavy and full. Cocoa and dark chocolate carry it all, while the rye's spiced character meets a distinct spirit warmth from the barrels. It's balanced enough that the malt can still shine through.

Finish

Long and dry, with tobacco and a final hint of whisky oak that lingers long after the last sip.

In an industrial quarter of Budapest, a small team of brewers experiments its way toward beers that don't always follow the recipe book. Love in a Foreign Language is one of the results - a barrel aged Imperial Stout, heavy with dark chocolate and warm from months on wood.

Expert description of Mad Scientist Love in a Foreign Language

Mad Scientist is a Hungarian brewery from Budapest, known for an experimental, boundary-pushing approach to beer. Love in a Foreign Language is their barrel aged take on an Imperial Stout, where the heavy, dark base flavour is joined by warm wood notes and vanilla from the barrel ageing. The result is a beer with dessert-like depth, where classic stout elements melt together with a softer, rounder character from the wood.

The brewery builds on a solid base of barley and wheat malt, letting the beer draw character from the barrels over a long period so vanilla and wood become a natural part of the flavour rather than a bolted-on layer. That gives a full-bodied, silky texture that stout lovers with a taste for the experimental will find hard to resist.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Dark chocolate, roasted malt and a hint of coffee, with warm notes of oak and vanilla in the background.

Caramel, cocoa and dried fruit, carried by a soft, warm finish from the barrel ageing.
