Bottle shared at home with Joen and Laura. Dark red-purple-brown color, small off-white head. Aroma is malts, rum, raisins, sweet. Flavor is similar, with loads of rum and raisins and sweetish notes. Quite nice actually, even though its fairly thin bodied.

Bottle drunk watching Dune 2 on a Strohwitwer evening. Dark brown, thin head, yeasty-bready caramel nose with definite rum notes. Rich and smooth, not too hot with alcohol, this is a prima dessert beer! Great job with this cask.

Bottle from a local bottle shop. Big Rum upfront, boozy with loads of raisin, malt, more dried fruit, spicy notes, alcohol. Medium sweet, boozy finish. Very nice with a strong rum profile, well done Gulpener.

Aus der Flasche (bbe 11.06.2025) im 2004-01 getrunken. Diese braunrote Ale kommt deutlich malzig mit einer feinen leicht unstimmigen Säure daher. Interessantes Bier aber mehr auch nicht!

330 ml bottle. Pours a dark reddish brown with light head. Aromas of rum, copper, raisins and toasted malts. Flavors follow same. Dry and metallic. I think the rum enhances the latter, so maybe not the best match for a Quad.

Tap at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 2nd November 22. Pours a chestnut brown. Aroma is rum and barrel. Taste is rum dominant and some barrel, malts and more rum, it’s decent, but you need to like rum
