Bottle from the dregs run. Cheers Craig. Slightly confused by the name of the brewery, but it turnd out not to be the UK one... Pours clear dark brown with a thin tan head. Aromas of rum and raisins, roasted nuts, cherries in a spirit. Taste is a little thin maybe, boozy, but all the flavours are there, sour cherry being dominant. Nice.

Bottle at tasting. Black pour. Aroma of sweet raisin, licorice, chocolate and red fruit. Taste has red fruit, riasin, booze, chocolate, licorice, creamy roast, boozy rum glue. Bit of a letdown, lacks the fruity vanilla flavor that rum often has.

650 ml bottle shared by MisoW at Bratislava Tasting, thanks!
Almost black body, with a quite small, creamy, coffee colored head.
Aroma of melting dark chocolate, cocoa, coconut, coffee, some rum barrel notes, dark fruits.
Tastes of rum barrel, coconut, dark chocolate, cocoa powder, coffee, some liquorice.
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes roasty, dry, with coffee, cocoa, barrel notes, some liquorice.
Tasty. Quite straight, but pleasantly dry and roasty, with the rum barrel notes not too dominant. Not my favourite style example, but really enjoyable.

0,75l bottle shared by MisoW, big thanks. black color, small coffee colored head. Smells coffee, licorice, wood, some roast, rum, dried fruits, raisins, vanilla. Decent smell. Full body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. Tastes licorice, charcoal, vanilla, medical, some alcohol. Finishes with licorice and rather medical. Not such a big fan, vanilla and licorice notes ake this one not a favorite of mine..

Bottle at a tasting. Aroma caramel, toffee, chocolate. Clear dark brown colour. Taste reveals a not so sweet beer surprisingly. Alcohol pokes out, warming, roasted. Also woody an only a hint of rum. Good, but too boozy for my liking and also lacks a bit of body and complexity. Still fucking great though.
