Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours coppery/amber with a large foamy white head. Pineapple in the aroma. Med plus body. Flavor is some pineapple and a lot of darkish toffee - or Tmavy like malt. My descriptors are sadly lacking. It's not exactly dry, but it's not exactly sweet. There's an overall dark fruit aspect - but not necessarily fruit. Some heat. The effect on the mouth is like a dry bitterness with lurking lightly sweet malt. Took awhile, but I finally noticed rum. And wood. Complex enough for me - especially considering there may not be that many flavor variations in it. I really, really like it. Belgian dark ale. With rum. With wood. Glad I persisted in parsing this. Very good IMHO.
