Do you get a whisky taste from the oak aging of that beer?
J. W. Lees has a line of Harvest Ales, each of which is aged in a different type of barrel - port, sherry, Calvados, and Lagavulin (perhaps others, but those are the four I've had). Each is distinctly flavoured by its oak, and let me tell you, the Lagavulin ale is incredible!
The Dominion Brewery in Virginia had an Oak Barrel Stout that was casked in old whiskey barrels. It had a very unique flavor. I don't know if they still have it or not, and even a few years ago it was only sold on premises.

Well the beer after the game is always the best part of rugby for some....I prefer trying to beat teh crap out of the prop across from me in the scrum
My motto when I go to a game is "win or loose Ill have some booze". Trouble is I don't mind losing to the Irish or Scots but to lose to the English! (No offence to any English members)
