Okay this is a wierd one!
Unclear light brown with lots of yeast downfall. No head at all. Not a good looking brew.
Smells just like a cinnamon roll (the ones they make in IKEA) dipped in rubbing alcohol! Cinnamon, vanilla, bready, bit salty, alcohol.
Doesn’t taste of much. Ginger, and a bit of lime but is quickly overpowered by the alcohol and rumbarrels. Not much of an aftertaste.
Zero carbonation and very strong alcohol feel!
Will not buy again. Too strange taste for my pallad. Tastes more like rum than beer.

This is a quad aged on rum barrels with lime zest and ginger, inspired by the cocktail Dark & Stormy.

Pours an unclear brown, with hardly any head. Looks like dirty dishwater.

Smell is bonkers. Lime, ginger, chocolate, vanilla, rum and burnt sugar. Crazy, but delicious.

Taste plays down the lime and ginger a bit and brings up a fairly stout bitterness and hints of leather and lemongrass. Treads the line between cocktail and beer. Tasty, but pretty weird.

Mouthfeel is very thin, considering the ABV, and a bit under carbonated.

Overall, this is really hard to judge. It looks pretty bad, smells delicious, but not really like beer. Taste is also a sort of hybrid and mouthfeel is lacking. That said, I woud probably buy this again, for the smell if nothing else.
