Spinning Mill Barrel Project Series No. 008 is a bold Imperial Stout aged in Appleton Dark Rum barrels, with a unique flavour profile.
Fresh apple, sweet raisin, and dark treacle are the standout notes, each enhanced by the rum barrel aging. The crispness of the apple contrasts beautifully with the dried fruit richness of raisin, while the treacle adds deep, molasses-like sweetness. The dark rum barrels impart a warming finish with subtle hints of oak and spice, rounding out the stout's bold, malty character.

Bottle from Amity online shop. Black pour with a tan head. Aromas of jammy dark fruits, coffee, cocoa, dark chocolate, cola. Taste is coffee, molasses, dark chocolate, treacle toffee, more jammy dark fruits. Long alcohol burn. Uber sweet warming finish. Quite the cockle warmer.
