Virginia Distillery Co has teamed with Central Waters Brewing Co as the former continues to grow its The Brewer’s Coalition, a limited-edition series of American Single Malt whiskies finished in casks from breweries across the country.
Central Waters Brewing Co. Black Gold Imperial Stout Cask Finish American Single Malt combines Virginia Distillery Co.’s whisky with the Wisconsin’s Central Waters Brewing Co. Black Gold Imperial Stout.
Twelve barrels were sourced for this release, which was first aged in ex-bourbon barrels for over five years before being finished in Imperial Stout barrels and is bottled at 100 proof.
“Central Waters has built a strong reputation in the Midwest and beyond for their commitment to quality and barrel-aged beers,” said Gareth Moore, CEO of Virginia Distillery Co. “Finishing our American Single Malt in Black Gold Imperial Stout barrels allowed us to create a whisky with remarkable complexity, and it’s exactly the type of collaboration The Brewer’s Coalition was designed for.”
“Partnering with Virginia Distillery Co. has been an exciting opportunity for us,” added Anello Mollica, Vice President at Central Waters Brewing Co. “Black Gold has long been the top-rated beer in Wisconsin and a favorite among our fans, and seeing its influence extend into whisky in such a distinctive way is incredibly rewarding. It’s a proud moment for us to bring a bit of Wisconsin craft beer tradition into this
collaboration.”
Central Waters Brewing Co. Black Gold Imperial Stout Cask Finish American Single Malt is available in limited quantities online and at select retailers nationwide for $54.99.
