Single Malt Scotch Whisky Auchentoshan came together with local craft brewer North Coast Brewing and local bartender Caitie Connolly, to develop a unique and custom-to-San Francisco Auchentoshan & Ale cocktail (aka beertail), called the "The Blusters". It's great for Scotch and beer lovers alike, and uses seasonal flavors of lemon, and a hint of spicy cinnamon. Auchentoshan will also be at the upcoming Eat Drink San Francisco this weekend August 24 - 27 and will be sampling the cocktail on site.
