Additional Info

Experience Irish whiskey at its wildest with Killowen Barántúil Beer Hut Cask Single Pot Still Whiskey — a small-batch cask strength release matured in ex-Bourbon barrels and finished in a Brettanomyces-influenced beer cask from Beer Hut Brewing Co., Kilkeel. This uniquely funky expression delivers smoky, fruity, and earthy complexity that sets it apart in the world of whiskey Ireland. Bottled at 58.9% ABV, it’s a bold tribute to native grains, open fermentation, and experimental finish.

Made using the Killowen style of production — including outdoor open-top fermentation and worm tub distillation — this Irish whiskey uses a mash bill of malted and unmalted barley, oats, wheat, and Maris Otter. After three years in Bourbon barrels and a further seven months in the beer cask, this limited-edition release balances spice, oak, and a wild Brett character found more often in sour beers than spirits.

About This Whiskey
Killowen Barántúil Beer Hut Cask Single Pot Irish Whiskey is a limited, wild-yeast-finished expression that exemplifies the frontier of Irish whiskey innovation. Distilled in County Down using traditional methods and finished in a beer cask from Beer Hut Brewing Co., this whiskey is a bold, unfiltered statement from Killowen Distillery — perfect for anyone looking to buy whiskey online that delivers complexity, authenticity, and edge.

Crafted using a mash bill that blends malted barley, unmalted barley, oats, wheat, and Maris Otter barley, this cask strength Irish whiskey underwent three years of maturation in first-fill ex-Kentucky Bourbon barrels, followed by seven months in a Brettanomyces-influenced beer cask called Ebbs & Flows. The result? A marriage of spice, funk, and sweetness rarely seen in whiskey Ireland.

Bottled at a robust 58.9% ABV and non-chill filtered, this small-batch expression honours the true nature of pot still production and Beer Hut’s sour beer legacy. Whether you're seeking whiskey delivery in Dublin or curious about unique Irish collaborations, this bottle offers one of the most distinctive profiles in the category.

Tasting Notes:

  • Appearance: Deep golden amber with rustic hues and natural haze

  • Aroma: Notes of hay, clove, leather, and funky Brett character mingle with oak and vanilla

  • Flavour: Complex and layered with earthy spice, orchard fruit, and tangy citrus over rich malt

  • Mouthfeel: Full-bodied and warming, with a long finish marked by Brett spice, oak tannin, and gentle sweetness

Distillery Overview
Killowen Distillery is one of Ireland’s smallest and most artisanal whiskey producers, located in the Mourne Mountains of County Down. Known for its commitment to historical Irish mash bills, open-top fermentation, and worm tub condensation, Killowen produces some of the most characterful whiskey Dublin and Ireland have to offer. Each batch is made with locally sourced grain and distilled slowly over 12-hour shifts, yielding micro-releases that are fiercely independent and flavour-driven. The Barántúil series pays homage to the pure pot still tradition while embracing creative collaborations like this beer cask finish.

Food Pairings / Serving Suggestions
This complex spirit is best served neat to highlight its funkier elements, though a few drops of water can open up the spicy and fruity layers. Food pairings include mature blue cheese, wild game, or sourdough bread with smoked charcuterie. Adventurous whiskey lovers might also enjoy it alongside a tart cherry lambic or funky farmhouse ale to mirror the Brettanomyces influence.
