Whiplash Beer, of Blue Ghosts Pils fame, recently dropped an exclusive collaboration beer with Allta restaurant, led by Niall Davidson. As is the way, this is only the beginning of a series of beer and food collaborations slated for 2024.
This collaboration stems from an alliance they originally forged in 2021. Allta neighbouring space Glovebox, will feature a rotating selection of Whiplash signature brews alongside new, limited-edition releases. The first is Allta Dark Sour, brewed with barley and rye, then aged for three years in French cognac casks.
Boasting a 5.7% ABV, this intricately crafted beer presents robust oak and Cognac notes intertwined with hints of cherry and dark fruitcake, culminating in a tangy finish.
