Small white head. Deep yellow body. Perfumy fruit floral aroma. Dryish perfumy vanilla and flowers taste with papery notes. Mid-bodied. Low fizz. Very clean palate. Mild dry hoppy aftertaste. Not very flavourful. Quite nice, but very mild, almost bland. (Taster at Dr. Jekyll’s, Oslo.)

Bottle. Vibrant golden beer, almost orange. The aroma is lightly vanilla, and the flavour is very well hopped with a whisky like and bitter finish. Overall a reasonably flavoured beer.

33cl bottle from Sainsbury. well this should be interesting. I don’t like Innis and Gunn beers and I don’t like rum too much either. Mind you, it is a good looking beer, a kind of a mead, reddish gold clear hue. Aroma isn’t bad either with some rum, some whisky and an unexpected smooth toastiness. Good toffeee and caramel too. So a pretty good start. And then I drank it and everything went just so wrong. It doesn’t help that the underlying beer has been filtered and pasteurised to death. In fact the rum over the top is the only thing that is keeping this thing going. Makes it sweeter than it’s other woody brothers. Its not so bad once you downgrade your tastebuds and the sweetish rum does save it some. It’s kind of alright. And it I wanted something bizarre to tempt a spirit drinker to beer I might give them this.

courtesy of tpd975, shared during the nice 4th July wknd. pours clear copper, thin beige head. aroma of light oak, hints of vanilla and caramel. taste, oak, malts, caramel with some sweet caramel covering the palate. Ligt in body. Oak is light and there is no real substantial whiskey to be noticed but it remains subtle and enjoyable for that, the palate was a little of a let down.
