    I've only had Jackie Os and Pirate Bomb. They were ok, definitely not knocked out.

    Carton's Ship Wreck Porter. Worth the drive for you if you can ever get there when it's on tap.

    Don't get me wrong it might be really good. It's just sometimes I get the feeling people want everything they like in one bottle. My favorite was I like eggnog, which beers have eggnog in them? Cheers!

    Oh I agree, pudding beer sounds good actually. ..but yea...I was just figuring why not give a rum beer a try...for all I know I might fall in love. I guess like all beer. .why not? But..I agree some people just want it all :slight_smile:

    InfRIngement is my favorite of the bunch. Loved it last year when I could only get one bottle, then a bunch just showed up in a local store at $5.89 / 22 oz bomber! Can't beat that for an excellent BA stout.

    I liked Nebraska's Runnin' With the Devil - a barleywine aged in rum barrels. BFM Brasserie Des Franches-Montagnes Abbaye de Saint Bon-Chien was finished in rum barrels but did not have much rum character. Capital Brewery Jobu Rum Barrel Aged American Brown ale is pretty decent. Clown Shoes has also been known to age things in rum barrels.

    Actually just got a bottle of Rum barrel-aged Black Tuesday. Could maybe trade for some of that.

    I thought Prairie Pirate Noir was better IMO. I had the Russian Pirate last week but I also had it after KBS and BBA Hellfighter...so my palate may not have been perfect.

    Breckenridge recently released Twenty Five, their Imperial Vanilla Porter aged in rum barrels. Seems to be getting just OK reviews so far: http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/2137/201540/

    I haven't drank my bottle yet, but it sounded interesting to me since I haven't had a lot of rum barrel aged beers.

    Jackie O's - Oil of Aphrodite
    Breckenridge - Twenty Five (drank this last night and went great with a cigar)

    Both are great rum aged beers.
