This limited bottling of I&G has been aged with spiced rum oak chips. The result is absolutely delicious, bursting with the flavours of Caribbean spices along with our signature notes of vanilla, toffee and oak.

Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into the Innis and Gunn tulip.
The appearance was a nice hazy brown color with some light red tinges around the edges of the glass. There was a decent one finger white foamy head that dissipated within less than a million. There was a moderate amount of white foamy lacing trickling down the glass.
The smell had a nice toasted oaky vanilla to glaze over top of a light rum.
The taste was sweet and oaky along with the rum but not in an overly boozy way.
On the palate, this one sat right at medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionable aspect about it. The carbonation was pretty smooth.
Overall, this was a pretty good beer worthy of coming back to.

Pours deep red with a short, off-white head. Caramel malt, oak, dark rum aroma. Taste is cola, rum, pepper....toffee. Very nice spicy rum tingle. Sweet, with a very slight alcohol presence. Very good.

12 oz. bottle from the Beer Store, Nashua, NH. Pours clear copper with creamy, bubbles of white head. Nose is indeed spiced rum. Starts off with oak, butterscotch and vanilla upfront turning to water downed rum in the finish. To me it tastes like if you let a few ice cubes melt in a half glass of Bacardi. I do like rum but this really isn’t my thing.

Bottle from Half Time. Pours clear copper with some transient beige bubbles. Aromas of rum spice, mild treacle and arguably oak. Med body. Flavor is a bit of vanilla, rum spice, and a touch of treacle in the finish. Arguably finishes dry. There is a little bit of oak astringency in the very end. I tend to like these funny beers. But then I like Newcastle Brown too.

Pours clear deep amber into a Sam glass. White head with good retention recedes to skim surface. Vanilla, toffee and spiced oak aromas. Medium bodied with sweet oak, butterscotch and vanilla upfront turning to mild rum in the medium length finish.
