On tap at River of Beers. This is Dark Woods 2014 aged in Rum Barrels. Black body. Aggressive bubbles. Smells of rum and dark fruits. Oak. Dark chocolate. Tastes strongly of rum up front. Brown sugar. Spicy wood flavors. Bitter chocolate. Lingering fruitiness. Medium body. High carbonation for a rich beer. Wood flavors really linger on the palate. It's pretty nice up front, but the wood flavors are almost too strong.

Had at 3 Flolyd's during the tap takeover.
Minty molasses nose. Slight harshness on the palate. Chocolate and barrel very present. Boozy. Cinnamoan notes come through but get drowned out by the barrel and booze.
