FORT
BRAGG, Calif., March 28,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- North Coast Brewing Company
(NCBC) announces an exceptional new barrel-aged beer. Born from
a special collaboration between North Coast Brewing Company and
Westward Whiskey, this limited offering of Barrel Aged Old Rasputin
has matured for over a year in Westward Whiskey's single malt
whiskey barrels and is now ready to be savored by discerning
palates.
In April 2022, an exciting idea to
collaborate on a new barrel-aged beer was realized. Single malt
barrels were shipped from Portland,
OR to Fort Bragg, CA, and
filled with Old Rasputin. Now, NCBC is pleased to release this
extraordinary offering: Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout aged to
perfection in Westward Whiskey Single Malt barrels.
The partnership with Westward Whiskey combines the bold
character of Old Rasputin with the nuances of Westward Stout Cask
Whiskey Barrels.
"This collaboration is a testament to the exceptional artistry
and craftsmanship embodied by both NCBC and Westward Whiskey,"
remarked Jennifer Owen, CEO of NCBC.
"Our Brewmaster describes the beer as featuring robust whiskey
notes complemented by hints of vanilla and dark chocolate
aromas."
Thomas Mooney, CEO of Westward
Whiskey, added, "We are thrilled to partner with North Coast on
this exciting and limited offering. We share so many similarities
with this iconic beer producer – our passion for the brewing
process and love for stout beers, our commitment to innovation, and
our love for bold and robust flavor – and we believe this
symbiotic approach shines through in this Old Rasputin
release."
