Jameson Drinking Buddies Episode 4; Captain Lawrence Brewing (Video)

From Jameson & Captain Lawrence:

Jameson and Captain Lawrence Brewing Company share a belief in the pursuit of the perfect pint. Or in our case, the perfect neat. Or shot. Or on the rocks. Or…you get the idea. So we had to have them come see how we do what we do in person. Then we sent them home with Jameson Whiskey barrels in which they’re aging a Trans-Atlantic Red. Watch more about Captain Lawrence’s home in New York, the Jameson collaboration and the beer Ireland inspired.

The Trans-Atlantic Imperial Red Ale, that’s what. Scott Vaccaro, Captain Lawrence founder, was invited to the Jameson Whiskey distillery in Midleton, Ireland—one of five U.S. breweries represented at the famed distillery. In exchange, a half dozen Jameson barrels were shipped to Elmsford to harbor the malty, rich and hearty Trans-Atlantic Red brew. Scott Tobin, Captain Lawrence brewhouse manager, made the trip as well. “I had to bring an Irishman just to be let into the country,” quips Scott Vaccaro.

The guests got “free reign” in the distillery, says Scott, to see how Jameson selects its raw materials, and how the top-notch whiskey is produced, start to finish. “It was quite an immersive, very insightful trip,” says Scott.
