The bottle I have says 2019 on it lol but honestly this aged pretty well. Not super hoppy but the barrel flavors are sweet like molasses and the orange is still there. My gf and I both liked this one still

Pick this up for a pretty affordable price despite it being aged in rum barrels.
A - pretty clear looking bright yellow with just a full inch of fraud
S - I kid you not first aroma was like pina colada plenty of blood orange tropical fruit and somewhat glaze of vanilla
T - kind of a mishmash really The rum barrel and ethanol really cloys at the palate with slight notes of blood orange zest and just a slight hint of hops. The barrel has completely overtaken this beer no sweet vanilla just notes of rum surrounded by the base beer
M - pretty medium body slight ethanol creeping through drinks much heavier than I expected for 7.5%
Overall rum barrel-aged beers are hit or miss and even though this one smell great the body is just overflowing with ethanol tones and rum. Not something I would get again but still a great experimental beer.

Foggy burnt orange with a thin off-white ring.
Wow, the rum really comes through, like soaked orange and pineapple, with a spiced sting. The body is still full with a satisfying round carbonation and a semi-dry, now slightly warm finish. A touch of graham helps bring this into rum cake fantasyland, with accents of dolce de leche.
Smell is a bit more orange forward of freshly squeezed blood and regular oranges, both the flesh and rind.
This was an unexpectedly wildly successful take on an already surprisingly good beer.
