From the Brewer: Tactical Nuclear Penguin is bold, irreverent and uncompromising. The Antarctic name inducing schizophrenia of this uber-imperial stout originates from the amount of time it spent exposed to extreme cold. This beer began life as a 10% imperial stout 18 months ago. The beer was aged for 8 months in an Isle of Arran whiskey cask and 8 months in an Islay cask making it our first double cask aged beer. After an intense 16 month, the final stages took a ground breaking approach by storing the beer at -20 degrees for three weeks to get it to 32%. A beer like Tactical Nuclear Penguin should be enjoyed in spirit sized measures.
