Perched above Oban bay, this tasting pairs coastal panorama with three distinct expressions from Innis & Gunn: The Original — a golden beer matured in single‑malt whisky casks; Innis & Gunn Lager — billed as Scotland’s No.1 premium lager; and the Session IPA, a lively West Coast‑style hop expression. The experience distills a short, informative sampling into a single hour on the waterline of the town.
