22 oz. bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lush rum notes, vanilla and oak. Flavour is decadent and complex, bringing out rum, but not too much of it, with vanilla, roasted malt and honey. Very complex and all the flavours intermingle beautifully. Wonderful stuff.

Waxed bomber pours with a mahogany colored body that supports a tan head of foam. The aroma tossing up pleasing notes of caramel, molasses, semi sweet rum, a dash of burnt malts, caramel covered oak, dark roastiness and some chocolate. The taste is rich thick smooth velvety goodness with sweetness running from molasses to caramel to malt to mild yet sweet smooth rum. Those notes are bordered by mild caramel dipped oak, slivers of chocolate and some very dark roasted maltiness. Nice.
