That puzzled me as well. If it is tasteless, what is the point of using it as a flavouring?

The Wellington Brewery also produced a range of Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stouts called UVB-76 series. It is inspired by a mysterious Russian shortwave radio station that has been broadcasting continuously at 4625 kHz since 1973. It is designated UVB-76 but it is also known as 'The Buzzer'. The transmissions consist of a torrent of radio static interrupted by a mysterious buzzing tone and occasionally a voice repeating the names: Dasha, Maksim, Roman, and Elena.
UVB-76 Elena is a Bourbon barrel aged Imperial stout with chocolate and mint.

In previous years the Wellington Brewery has produced other drinks in this series. This is UVB-76 Olga. The stout was flavoured with star anise.

In Mirabel, Quebec, Canada on August 21, 2018 – Nolinor Aviation, in collaboration with breweries Boldwin and Vagabond, was pleased to unveil two new, certified-organic craft beers. The special edition beers produced by Vagabond and Boldwin were named TUK and TAP in honour of the first Boeing 737 and Convair 580 aircraft acquired for Nolinor’s fleet. Starting in early August, the beer was served to passengers on board Nolinor flights and could also be enjoyed at Bistro Roquette & Balsamique at Nolinor’s facilities in Mirabel.
