Smells insanely like rum, coffee, raisin. Dark, smooth, rum taste. Tastes boozy, raisin. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Served on tap at the Linda Vista location during SDBW 2011. The appearance is a rich black brown without much head. The aromas are rum with a faint roast malt profile. The flavors are rum and stout. I really like the rum profile but the barrel aging really made the beer flat and there wasn’t much done to bring it back. This leads to a flat rum and coke mouth and flavor. Still for such a small base beer a solid brew.
