Bottle bought from Brews of the World, Burton-upon-Trent, drunk at home. Dark gold, clear with a frothy off-white head. 80% of the aroma is white rum, but I'm getting a touch of stone-fruit hop just behind it. Sugarcane sweet and unapologetically boozy taste with a more mellow and rounded finish than I was expecting. I think there's a decent beer beyong the rum, but it feels spoiled rather than enhanced. A bit of a struggle.

Bottle in Rome-Italy with Daniele. Grazie Alex. Dark golden a bit amber clear pour, tick off white foam with drafts. Nose: panettone cake, cinnamon cake, burnt cane sugar. Mouth is great, rhum is present and charming. Quite bitter finish in a sweet malty and spicy ba beer. Thumbs up!

Flaska från SB. Passerat sitt korta bäst före-datum. Klar, ljusguldig med vit krona. Ganska anonym i doften annat än en viss spritighet, sötma och lite burkad ananas (av den något bättre sorten). Något större kropp, oljig. Smakar spritigt av söt rom och whisky, honungskaka, ananas. Mycket fatkaraktär. Men gott är det inte.

Hazy deep gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Vibrant fruity rum nose. Fairly smooth palate, mildly dry, decent trailing minerally carbonation. Light malts bring a light creamy sweetness. Smooth vibrant fruity bouncy rum follows the snout. It's a double IPA, so where are the hops? There is pine and ripe citrus peel. Touch of ripe lemon. More rum and a trace of woody bitterness on the finish. Spectacularly rum barrel, bold and proud and unsubtle and I can't help but doff my hat and enjoy it.

I'm glad everyone has finally come to their senses and given a barrel aged IPA the low rating they deserve, even if it's made my founders. Boozy. Barrely. Some bitter herbs and lots of sweet caramel. Pours amber with ok head. Bittersweet end. Doesn't come together well. Bottle.

Golden colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour have a lot of floral notes and also a kind of rum and raisin sweetness. Sticky, thick and lightly bitter.
