It’s April 1st on the Internet. You know what that means. I’m not against having some fun with your social media channels, but it didn’t take long to remember that today — April Fools Day — is always a bit of a mess online.

No age statement. It’s a wildly different expression than Indri’s standard-bearer Trini, not just because of its use of peat but because of its exceptionally high abv (60.5%) as well.
