330mL bottle, pours a cloudy dark amber orange with a small off-white head. Nose is full of rum barrels upfront, followed by red fruits, caramel, and brown sugar. Flavour is quite boozy, with rum barrels, caramel, light brown sugar ad tons of booze. Really boozy and quite sweet, with little depth. Not so good.

330 ml. bottle @ Alaus Biblioteka – Vilnius. Amber orange, little head. Nose is pure rum, spiritus, insanely alcoholic. Taste is pure rum, way too much cheap alcoholic rum diluted with some malt, sugar, caramel, bad rum and real overkill of it, hard to drink it.

Bottle thanks to Tipple. It pours cloudy orangey - amber with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky tangy, toffee, orange marmalade, run and raisin, fruit cake, honey and sultana. The taste is dry, bitter, toasty grain, wood, warming booze, fruit cake, leather, tobacco. tannin, spice, rum & raisin and earth with a dryibg and warming finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not bad.

Bottle shared in Hackney - thanks to Tipple. Pours lightly hazy amber with a small, foamy white head. Rich ripe berries in the nose, caramel, rum, wood, earth. Medium sweet flavour, some leafy bitterness, ripe berries, alcohol, pine. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, a little raw alcohol, burnt toast, caramel, ripe berries. Not bad. Hefty.

Clear amber beer, small cream colour head. Palate is smooth and fairly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth dry malts, little caramel. Good rum. Fruity rum. Mild spice. Light dry finish. Simplistic but easy drinking rum dominant barleywine.

Nice clear amber pour, bottom has more sediment but top pour not that much. Nose has some booze, caramel, slick herbal character. Taste has more caramel, rum character is coming through, in a way reminds me rum and coke that used to be a staple drink in high-school. Booze bitterness and caramelized fruit sugars. Quite light actually overall, barrel woodiness coming out more in aftertaste.
