Berkshire Mountain 10 Year Oktoberfest

Berkshire Mountain Distillers (BMD) was founded in 2007 in Massachusetts by Chris Weld. Chris tried making a still in the 8th grade, which feels qualified as a good start. The distillery sits on an old apple farm and a working spring. In the proceeding years, the distillery has made a variety of vodkas, gins, rums, and bourbon, along with corn and single malt whiskies. BMD seems to love experimenting, as they have developed multiple kinds of each spirit by making use of their small batch production. The distillery is also into collaboration with local breweries and farms, as shown by their recent Craft Brewers Whiskey Project. The Berkshire Mountain 10 Year Oktoberfest is another entry in collaboration, as this single malt is aged for ten years and was distilled from an Oktoberfest beer by nearby brewery Berkshire Brewing.

In 2016, Glenfiddich released the Glenfiddich IPA Cask offering to inaugurate their Experimental Series. This yearly series is geared toward, as the name indicates, experimenting and pushing the envelope of what might be considered normal within the industry while still playing within regulatory bounds. This expression takes the current trend of cask finishing and adds a twist by doing so in barrels that once held an IPA-style beer at Speyside Craft Brewing specially created by a collaboration between Master Blender Brian Kinsman and Craft Beer Expert Seb Jones.
