As Autumn fades and we contemplate the long stretch of winter ahead, we start to look forward to beers which lift our spirits and take us to a Higher Ground. Higher Ground has been aged in Single Malt Whisky barrels, which have lain undisturbed in the Highlands of Scotland for 18 years, slowly developing rich complex flavours which have been imparted to the beer.

330ml bottle in box from LCBO. Pours an average size foamy beige head and has a clean amber coppery appearance. Sticky lacing. Lively carbonation. Aromas of toasted malts, dark dried fruit, earthy and woodsy notes. Flavours are mostly caramel, raisins, hints of plum, some woodsy notes in the finish, a little but of oak from the barrel aged aspect. Slight drying mouthfeel

Part of their Latitude & Longitude Series 002. Boxed 330ml brown bottle. Pours a deeper amber colour, clean, with a creamy-frothy light-beige head, good stay and some spotty-bubbly lacing. Nutty malt aromas, caramel with the Scotch cask alcohol notes and hints of vanilla, wood. A little unbalanced, it seems - kind of weird. The taste is better blended, but seems milder all-around. Light warming alcohol. Hints of dark fruits, watered-down, with decent hop bitterness-dryness in the finish. The malts really take a back step in the flavours. Interesting, but not one I would seek again. Thankfully, the smell gets better at last pour. Same for taste.
