Co-founder & master brewer Dougal Gunn Sharp said six years maturation is “almost unheard of” in brewing. “Innis & Gunn was founded on a passion for trying different styles of maturation and Vintage achieves a special milestone for us,” Sharp continued.

The Scottish brewer, which specialises in barrel-aged beers, recently overhauled its core range. Revamped packaging rolls out on The Original and Caribbean Rum Cask variants earlier this year. Also included in the redesign is the company’s Irish Whiskey Cask stout beer, which has been upgraded to become a permanent addition to The Original’s portfolio.
