Bottle. Pours a cloudy copper with medium beige head that lasts leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is strong rum, rye, and raisins. Medium mouth, nice rye, dark fruit, light booze, toffee, very good.

750 ml bottle provided by Willrunforbeer, bottle date of 8//5/14. darker brown color with thin head. Aroma shows me ripe fruits, mild English malts, very subtle spice.
The flavor is mild malt, subtle dark fruit and a very mild rum finish. Nice lingering toffee and dark fruits. I’m going to use the word refined here because it is very well made. I like it.

Poured from bottle thanks Willrunforbeer. Pours orange brown with a tan head. Aromas of toffee fruit and alcohol. Taste is boozy with a nice caramel burn in the finish.

Thanks Brian. Dark burnt orange, 2 finger tan white head. Smells nice. has a coffee aroma, lots of wood, moscato and chardonnay grapes. Tasty beer. for sure a ton of rum in this one, brown sugar, candy, marshmallow. good sweetness but overall, it’s all melded nicely.

Draft at the brewery. Pours clear amber with a mellow, tan cream head. The nose has rich toffee mixed with ripe fruits, dates. Medium to big sweet flavor with decadent rounded fruit charcter, light caramel, wood, slight earth. Full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Warming finish with lightly sticky fruit sugars, toasted caramel, bitter grains. Very nice.
