Beautiful aromas of cinnamon, chocolate, vanilla, with some really late toffee coming in. The rum is quite prominent in the mouth, with chocolate and some citrus as well. I would have liked a bit more of a creamy body, but that's nit picking. Beautiful beer.

Can. Amber with a loose off white head. Biscuity aroma with some berries and citrus. Moderately sweet with berries, hints of stewed fruit, citrus, some pine, moderate bitterness. A fairly hoppy amber ale, but it's not the end of the world.

Can. Pale amber, fluffy white head. Aroma of grapefruit, crackers, some mandarin, honeydew melon, peach. So it tastes. Perhaps a little more body than it wants. Medium bitterness creeps up after a while.

(Can) Pours lack with huge tan head. Pleasant aroma of roast grain with a hint of pine. Medium body, well carbonated. Great taste. There’s plenty of roast malt and plenty of hops. The former features strongly at the start and the latter at the finish. There is a distinct style shift in the mid palate. Unusual and very enjoyable.

(Can) Pours black with a big tan head - a great looking beer. Pleasant aroma of chocolate and roast grains with notes of vanilla and hints of something boozy. Full bodied, soft MF smooth with plenty of soft carbonation. Great taste too. There’s a base of dark roast malt with a black coffee bitterness to it. This is balanced with some soft and slightly sweet chocolate and toffee tastes. There’s vanilla, some spice and some nice aromatic notes I cannot name. Very good.

(Can) Good looking beer. Pours clear amber brown with good pale tan head. Nice aroma of toffee, nuts and a hint of toast. Medium body with good fine bright carbonation. Pleasant taste too. Toffee and notes of roast nuts, with bready toast in the mid palate and some gentle bitterness in the finish. Very drinkable.

(Can) Pours hazy red brown with good head with a red orange hint. Pleasant aroma. Fruity, maybe sour plums, with pine note. Good mouthfeel. Medium body with plenty of fine carbonation. Good taste too with a nice toffee malt backbone and plenty of hops. There’s herbal and pine notes throughout the palate. Good bitter finish. Very good, and rather unusual.

(Can) Pours cloudy pale golden yellow with good white head. Subtle but pleasant citrusy aroma. Medium body, well carbonated. Good taste with nice tart citrus quickly moving to a peppery and herbal bitterness. Malt and sweetness not apparent. Very good for a mid strength.
