Westward Oregon Stout Cask American Single Malt

Born in the Northwest, from the distinctive culture, climate, and natural ingredients that come together to make a provenance-driven whiskey, Westward draws inspiration from its teams brewing and distilling experience. Oregon Stout Cask is Westwards tribute to its home in one of the most iconic beer-producing regions of the world; it grew out of Westwards longstanding cask-trading tradition among a select group of beer producers in the Northwest.Westward is a brand rooted in partnerships and for as long as the distillery has been making whiskey, it has traded its freshly-emptied barrels with some of its brewing friends in and around the Northwest, who have in turn seasoned them with Stout before returning them again. Each cask has housed Stout beer from a variety of leading stout producers throughout Oregon, including Bent Shovel Brewing, Breakside Brewing, Culmination Brewing, Deschutes Brewery, Ex Novo Brewing Co., Fort George Brewery, Migration Brewing, and Sky High Brewing, among others. After the whiskey is fully matured, it is then finished to taste in American White Oak Stout casks for approximately one year to create Westward Oregon Stout Cask.Westward Oregon Stout Cask begins by brewing a delicious American pale ale, from scratch, using locally malted barley, ale yeast, and a slow, low temperature fermentation. The fresh beer is then distilled twice in custom pot stills designed to create a bold, robust spirit before entering lightly toasted American Oak barrels barrel at a relatively low proof. The whiskey is aged to taste in the Northwest, where the regions hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters are the ideal environment to raise a world class whiskey before finishing for one additional year in freshly-emptied stout beer casks.Grab your bottle today!
