Morgenrot extends McGargles bottled beer range with new Uncle Jim’s stout

Alcohol importer Morgenrot has added Uncle Jim’s stout to its offering of McGargles bottled beers from Irish small batch brewer Rye River Brewery.

Described as a smooth, full flavoured and well-rounded stout, the 4.5% ABV beverage “provides subtle coffee and chocolate on the nose with the chocolate carrying through onto the palate to balance perfectly with the bitterness from the Herkules hops,” Morgenrot said.

It joins the company’s existing offering of Granny Mary’s red ale, Cousin Rosie’s pale ale and Knock Knock Ned’s IPA from the County Kildare, Ireland-based brewery. We first reported on Morgenrot’s listing of the three initial beers in February.

Morgenrot sales director Graham Archibald said: “The level of interest for these beers has been astounding since launch earlier this year so adding the brewery’s Stout was an incredibly easy decision, especially with the core drinking season closing in. The beers have already proved that they will capture the nation’s imagination so we can’t wait to unleash the full range in retailers throughout the UK.”
