Captain Raisin Beard and his motley crew of brewers ventured to the Caribbean to collect very special small batch rum barrels. These rum barrels survived the high seas and landed safely at the Port of Abbotsford where this Rum ‘n’ Raisin Imperial Stout has sat aging. This Imperial Stout is Raisin’ the bar on barrel aged greatness and this dark confectioner’s dream is full of the rum booty!

A lovely rum beverage thingie. Pretty sweet, rum and raisins is a classical combination, boozy and rich. Rum gives some spicyness, hints of molasses and some wood. Hints of vanilla. Very nicely balanced, and rum used very well here.
