This is the first of our 'Brewers Reserve Collection. Its Gurt, its rum, its coconutty. Vic successfully conducted one of his experiments with his old oak rum cask with no black sticky explosions . In fact we were saving this for ourselves until Christmas, However Jodie the gaffer was getting twitchy regarding his "cask rotation" and declared "let them have it at Weymouth, and that was how this legendary, multi award winning product was born. We now offer this premium product to you in a bottle.

Coconuts are quite subtle, but it works!

Cask at New Milton Beer Festival. Aroma of coconut, chocolate (and less positively) sour milk. Dark with a red tint. Creamy beige head just clings to the glass. Sweet with a slightly sour edge from the rum. Reminds me of a Bounty bar. Only slightly off. Surprisingly light, creamy but thin. Flat carbonation. Long finish. It's nice enough other than this kinda curdled element which detracts from the overall experience. Although I've never been keen on rum.

Cask at GBBF 2017. It pours hazy reddish – brown with a small off-white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, toasted coconut, milk chocolate, bounty bar, something artificial and sticky. The taste is smooth, bitter – sweet, sticky, sugary, milk chocolate, bounty bar, toasted brown sugars, earth, wood and a touch of spice. Medium body, soft carbonation and sticky mouth – feel. A bit sweet perhaps, but it is novel anyhow.
