We’ve harnessed a world of flavour within the confines of this can. One year in the making, the natural richness of our Imperial Stout has leveled up after resting within premium-grade Barbados rum barrels.
The dark sugar notes of molasses are the perfect foil to the addition of Sirene Chocolate’s ethically-sourced roasted cacao, adding another dimension of flavour to this opulent stout.

Dark brown. Thin head. Big rich roasty Quantum, but rounded by some mellow dark sugars, raisins, that sort of thing. Full body. A chill finisher kind of thing.

Far too boozy and unbalanced to be pleasant. Light roast, brown sugar notes , very sweet.

473mL can, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma reveals a very rich rum barrel character along with roasted malt, molasses and burnt sugars. Flavour is likewise very rich, with intense rum barrels, roasted malt and burnt sugars. The rum is strong but not brutal and actually quite well-calibrated. Extreme but not brutal. Excellent.

Poured from 473mL can @ Weathered 2023. Near black with minimal beige head. Rum, molasses, hint of wood glue, woody feint chocolate. Meh.

473 ml can. Pours black with moderate dark tan head. Aromas of dusty dark chocolate, fruity rum, molasses, vanilla, and rich roasted malts. Rich flavors follow same but the rum barrel is nicely balanced and not overwhelming. Excellent.
