As part of the ale blend has been matured in oak casks - not too unexpected!

Was this on cask somewhere? (I think it is occasionally)

I've really enjoyed the bottled version & I like the oddness of such a
reviled brewery making such a fantastic & historically interesting
beer, that's such hardwork & time to make.
