SILVER CITY CASK EXCHANGE

Written By Ben Harley

SUMMARY

Our third release in the Cask Exchange program features Silver City Brewing from Bremerton, WA. Malty notes of waffle cone take center stage complemented by a hint of smoke showcasing the beer and whiskey previously held by these casks.

What is the Cask Exchange?

Westland’s Cask Exchange is a series of single malt whiskey bottlings driven by demand for casks by Washington brewers. Instead of selling these casks to local breweries, we loan casks to like-minded brewers from our region. We offer no requirement for what type of beer fills these casks—only for them to be returned after use. Beer finishes are far from novel, but this program isn't about being unique, it's about forging meaningful partnerships and making something together that couldn't have existed before.
