GLENFARCLAS AT LOVE LANE BREWERY Love Lane Brewery Bar and Kitchen were delighted to host the Distillery Manager of the Year, Callum Fraser from the distillery of the year, Glenfarclas of Speyside, Scotland. Stephen Crawley, Chief Executive at Love Lane Brewey Bar and Kitchen said: "Callum joined us for 3 special events. The first was to collaborate on the brewing of a special Love Lane Imperial Stout that will be ready in Autumn/Winter 2020 after maturing in Glenfarclas whisky casks here in Liverpool. The 2nd event was really special as Callum and our distiller John O'Dowd created a special orange flavoured gin that is going to be finished in a first fill Glenfarclas Oloroso sherry cask in warehouse number one in Speyside. More details to follow. The 3rd event was a very convivial Glenfarclas whisky dinner on the mezzanine overlooking Love Lane Distillery and Brewery with 5 whisky and food pairings. It was a special evening with the highlight being Glenfarclas 25 year old and the very special 2001 Glenfarclas Family Reserve. Callum regaled the audience with some stories and talked them through each whisky. It was a great night!" 92 94 wirrallife.com
