Pours a deep red-copper color. A special batch of Inis & Gunn beer was brewed and matured in oak for 60 days; 30 days in American oak barrels, and 30 days in navy rum barrels. It was then matured 47 more days for a full marriage of flavors.

NOTE: Rum Aged, Rum Finish & Oak Aged Rum Finish are the same beer as Rum Cask. They are an alias for different export markets with a tweaked process.

Innis & Gunn: "They are the same beer, the process changed slightly so we changed the name. But the recipe is the same.

Door 1 of my homemade beer advent calendar. Good pour with lasting lacing. Mature nose and a huge hit of vanilla on the taste buds. It tastes like one of those awful pastry tours and this isn't for me.

Bottle from the lcbo. Dark Ruby pour, with a small off white head. Very woody aroma, lots vanilla and sweet rum soaked cake. There is a soft hop note, some light pine, mouth feel is spot on, carb is nice. Finish is the regular buttery Innis finish. Buttery barrel, vanilla, with a sharp woody sweetness. Raisins and rum soaked cake. Interesting, not to bad at all.

Dark ruby pour, small off white head. Aromas of toffee, plums, lightly roasted malts and some butter. Soft carb, thick mouthfeel. The finish is light on the bitterness with a light vinous sweetness, and some more toffee, and caramel. Light wood, some vanilla, rum adds an alcohol sweetness. Decent.

Пиво со вкусом рома. Думаю что надо пить если тебе больше 40 лет. В противном случае вас ждет довольно мерзкое газированное нечто.
