Bottle. Hazy yellow color, almost flat. Aroma of rum, vanilla. Taste is mostly rum. The rum overwelms the beer characteristics in this one.

Bottle shared for Thanksgiving. Clear amber color, medium beige head. Aroma of typical spice and subtle citrus. Taste is very lightly tart and light to medium spice. Tasty enough, and a popular choice.

Draft at Free the Hops FestivAle in Birmingham. Slightly hazy golden amber color, white edge head. Amazing aroma of herbal, floral spice and light funk. Taste is spiced white wine. The best beer of the festival, imho.
