About this release

Imperial Rye Stout brewed in collaboration with Frontaal Brewing Co., aged on Scottish whisky barrels from the small distillery Edradour. Brewed with a 150-year-old Estonian winter rye variety called Sangaste, which provides beautiful viscosity and deep complexity. The maturation on whisky barrels brings forward elegant notes of floral honey, aromatic heather, and roasted wood. Põhjala, a leading craft brewery from Tallinn, Estonia, is internationally renowned for their dark beers, particularly rich and complex Imperial Stouts and Porters. This collaboration with Frontaal Brewing Co. combines the craftsmanship of both breweries in a beer that fully aligns with Põhjala's philosophy of brewing with local ingredients and inspiration from Estonian nature. With an alcohol content of 13.5 percent and considerable structure, this beer offers an impressive tasting experience. The combination of the characterful rye variety and the subtle whisky barrel aging results in a harmonious whole of flavor and aroma. This is a timeless and profound taste experience for the true enthusiast of barrel-aged stouts, with an Untappd rating of 4.17 out of 5 stars based on over 590 reviews.
