We scavenged the GRAND CHARTS for the perfect summer bottle before we dug up this Tiki-inspired Rum Barrel-Aged Strong Ale. This treasure of an ale was aged in Barbados Rum Barrels for 38 months before small gems of Grand Marnier and Chartreuse Barrel were blended and conditioned with Mexican Camino Cacao Nibs, Macadamia Nuts, and Orange Zest. A prize pour of mahogany fades into a subtle tan foam before uncovering aromas of deep, complex chocolate, subtle nutty notes, and an air of citrus. Beneath the sands of oak lie more rich, fudgey characters alongside vanilla, macadamia, and a combination of spice and orange. Walking a delicate balance of viscosity, with a long, lingering finish, it's clear X marks the charts.

On tap at Fermentoren, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small tan head. Aroma is primarily a function of the cocoa nibs, with the nuts and rum further back. Flavour is surprisingly cohesive, with lots of cocoa, rum barrels, and toasted nuts. Strange concept that they executed pretty well. Very good.

On tap at Fermentoren. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Cacao, nuts, black rum, and a whif of charred wood on the nose. Flavour has a toffee malt base with some dark chocolate, generic nuttiness, notes of dark rum. Pretty good.
