The Innis & Gunn Tequila Cask Blonde beer is making its way to ALDI in the UK in celebration of its Scottish Beer Festival as an exclusive libation perfect for beer aficionados alike to try out this fall.
The beer features the brewery's blond beer matured in tequila casks that have been specially selected to perfectly enhance the final product. The cask maturing process is reported to impart distinctive notes of tequila into the beer including citrus notes, a spice-forward character and the sweetness of oak wood for a refreshing final product.

The craft beer industry continues to thrive in Scotland, while tequila has seen a rapid rise in popularity, so I’m sure this will be a huge hit with customers."
