Im Glas zeigt sich ein klares, rötlich-braunes Bier mit feiner bis mittelgrober Perlage. Die weiße, feinporige Schaumkrone hält dabei leider nicht sonderlich gut. Olfaktorisch nimmt man eine deutliche Rumaromatik mit schönen Holzaromen (Vanille, Kokos) wahr, welche von karamelligen und leicht fruchtigen Noten begleitet wird. Am Gaumen zeigt sich ein recht ähnliches Bild. Der karamelligen und leicht röstigen Malzaromatik wohnen schöne Noten der Rumfasslagerung bei. Man erkennt sofort die Noten von Vanille und Kokos wieder. Auch leicht fruchtige Noten machen sich bemerkbar. So ergibt sich auch ein wenig das Gefühl von Rumtopf oder Rumrosinen. Ein Hauch Hopfenaromatik klopft ganz zart an, spielt aber keine große Rolle. Gesamt gesehen zeigt sich so ein schönes und harmonisches Gesamtbild. Mundgefühl und Drinkability darf man bei diesem Bier ebenfalls als absolut gut bezeichnen. Im Nachtrunk klingen die fruchtigen und malzigen Noten langsam aus und am Ende bleiben die Fassnoten gemeinsam mit einer leicht trockenen Hopfenaromatik über.

Pours an opaque brown into a glass from a bottle. Aroma is definitely a barrel aged rum note over nondescript malt. With the level of barrel aroma I was expecting something rather sweet, but it was unexpectedly dry. Okay beer.

Bottled 330ml (AIH147)
Dark ruby colour, small beige head. Aroma has light rhum, toffee and nutty maltyness. Medium-bodied. Quite sweet toffeish, rhum flavour. Low bitterness. Strong malty backbone. Simplish but taste is good, dessert beer like.

Poured from 330mL bottle. Dark brown with off white head. Bread malt and toffee with a very light touch of rum barrel. Okay.
