🍒 Innis & Gunn Canadian Cherrywood Red Ale

Limited‑Edition • 7.1% ABV • 500 mL Bottle

A Liquid Love-Letter to Canada

This limited-edition Canadian Cherrywood Red Ale is Innis & Gunn’s tribute to their first export market. Conceived for Canada Day 2025, it celebrates 20 years of partnership with Canada. The ruby-red ale is matured on rye-whisky-seasoned cherrywood and finished with a kiss of Canadian maple syrup.

It pours a jewel-toned crimson, blooms with aromas of red berries and caramel, and finishes warm, mellow, and moreish—exactly the kind of “work of art” Arc Liquor’s discerning drinkers will want to revisit.

🇨🇦 The Story Behind the Beer

Innis & Gunn landed on Canadian shelves in 2005. Two decades later, they toasted that enduring friendship with a beer brewed exclusively for Canada and released on Canada Day. The recipe fuses northern flavours—cherrywood, rye spice, and maple syrup—into a true Scots-Canadian celebration.

Brew Sheet at a Glance

Pour, Colour & Foam

Expect a clear, vibrant crimson-amber body that glints ruby in the light. A chilled goblet pour (1–4 °C) raises a creamy beige head and releases inviting aromas as it settles.

Aroma & Taste

• Nose: Bright red fruit, cherry jam, caramel, toffee, vanilla, and subtle wood spice
• Palate: Full-bodied malt with cherry, maple-toffee, brown sugar, rye spice, and toasted grain
• Finish: Warming, mellow, and moreish, with lingering maple and oak

🍽️ Food Pairings & Serving Tips

Serving Note: Chill well (1–4 °C), but let it breathe slightly in a tulip or goblet to release its full bouquet.
