GINGER BEER FINISH
Select Cask Release #004
We are proud to introduce the fourth instalment in the
Brix Select Cask Series, #004 Ginger Beer Finish.
This release was born from a happy accident. Back in 2022, we received a low carbonated batch of our Spiced Ginger Beer + Native Finger Lime ready to drink cans. Steadfast on not wasting this gloriously tasting, although less than bubbly batch, our Head Distiller, Shane Casey, was determined to turn this mishap into an opportunity to create something extraordinary.
​
Our team of distillers set out on a mission, cracking hundreds of Spiced Ginger Beer cans by hand and filling a selection of high quality American & French Oak barrels tucked away in our barrelhouse. After one year of resting, the pronounced notes from our Ginger Beer had seeped into the oak staves of the barrels. Finally, it was time for the team to get to work emptying the barrels and refilling them with our aged Australian Rum.
​
After finishing in these casks for 1 month, the bold Spiced Ginger Beer flavours infused with our signature Brix Australian Rum. The result?
Brix Select Cask Series, Ginger Beer Finish,
a tantalising blend of rich Rum intertwined with the vibrant flavours of spiced ginger, lime, vanilla, cinnamon, honey, stone fruit and Anzac biscuits.
​
This release represents a true testament to our team's dedication to innovation and a reminder to embrace the age-old adage: when life gives you lemons, (or Spiced Ginger Beer), make Rum!
