Nc'nean Quiet Rebels Simon, 48.5%

Each Quiet Rebels release is chosen by a Nc’nean team member. This one was selected by distiller and beer fanatic Simon Hewitt. It was finished in Innis & Gunn stout casks after an initial maturation in shave-toast-rechar (STR) casks. The nose is enticing, with juicy dark fruits enveloped in coffee and chocolate; think an Americano with a chocolate chip cookie and black cherry muffin. The palate is bold, intense, and moreish, with milk choco- late, black coffee, black pepper, chocolate ganache, and cinnamon stick.
