Simply superb! 12.4 Napa Chard? Hell yeah. Smooth, silken, near-perfection. Ripe pear, melon, and dark, black apple. Great acid-fruit balance…soft, flirty fruit. What a pure pleasure with gratin and Smoking Goose rum soaked ham…. — 2 years ago

In a word “Cowabunga” this chocolaty taste and smoothness is over the top. Wow a Porter delight that until you’re done hides its 11.3% Alc/vol. aged in El Dorado Rum Barrels. From our own Fernie Brewing CO. If you come the 1st one is on me. Cheers 🍻🇺🇸🇨🇦 — 7 years ago

Uncommon yeast, indeed! Champagne yeast gives it that toasty, buttery, goodness, but the molasses finishes dry & English-style. — 10 years ago

9.3

Medjool date color of reddish brown verging on ebon. Brief, solid, fluffy headmaster cameo, beige. Bowing slowly with brevity, leaving only a dark, inscrutable surface. Ripe bananas, and Ethiopian coffee, grilled and roasted beef, marinated in Port with edges of cracked black pepper. Fennel, rosemary and cocoa, raisins, cloves, ginger snaps all stirred in cast iron over slow flames of acanthus to make this dark story thick with candied deceits, smelling of dark chocolate delights. This one has sharp, sugary teeth of cubed ginger candy, lips of gingerbread, a tongue of dark brown sugar, caramel-chocolate, dark rum cake, eucalyptus, coffee liqueur, and sweet barbecue sauce before finishing with figgy treacle. Smooth and brooding; your destiny implied by its name. — 7 years ago

A rum barrel aged opus dei beer, modeled after stollen bread. A Christmas beer delight! Crisp and clean, very easy drinking, not sweet but all of the fruits are represented perfectly. From Four Quarters Brewery, Winooski, VT. A new personal fave! Great job! — 9 years ago

9.6

Fantastic bottle. Raw tartness and power structured by the unique geometry of oxidative winemaking. Sweet dried fruit nose with grilled walnuts, and the body is sherry-like, but with a vibrant bite that transcends all but the very best sweet sherry. Mushroom, rum, caramel, and berry liquor. So good. — 4 years ago

9.3

Active, perfect yellow amber pushing orange hard. Big bubbled beige-yellow head that dropped expectedly quick, with so much action. Petri-dish lacing with cytoplasm graffiti. Huge pineapple nose of fresh-cut ripe fruit! Grapefruit tattoo, but little else. General lemon creaminess; a memo from mandarin. Pineapple rum entry with caramel and vanilla, baked apple, brandy-pear, classy touch of black pepper, allspice, ginseng, soft ginger slices, dried orange peel, anise, and lime. Heady and thick, cut, wiry, and sinewy, but overall, a calculated, choreographed, disciplined display of restrained power, lithe and evocative, with a smooth finish.

Okay, just black. Blonde wood/ baked apple hurrah, and then the dark quiet of space, or the grainy expanses of closed lids. The lacing of lazy, wood-boring insects. Such sights have set me to worrying of late. Mornings being a struggle at times, especially after these nighttime wooden cudgels and dark devices. The rack anyone? Coconut on coals. Tar socks. Dried violets. Black strap cola. Scraped vanilla beans, and dark chocolate cookie covered coal. Anise cinnamon and thin mint. Well, that’s the smell of the thing. The mouth below is unsweetened baker’s dark chocolate, blackened iron, vine charcoal, charred bone, hot springs through rubber piping, black sugar, Spanish “chocolate” brandy/black strap rum and graphite/smoke with evergreen suggestions. Not the Dragon of fire and smoke I expected, but certainly a formidable cave monster, living inside a volcano. I particularly appreciated the mineral/ethereal aspect. — 7 years ago

Rich reddish Gold. Aromas of Molasses and Burnt Sugar. A smooth rich palate giving plenty for its 37.5% Alcohol which is not high for a dark rum. “Filtered through Coconut Shell Charcoal to capture the true taste of Fiji” is the evocative statement on the label. Clean and easy to drink with 1 Block of ice. An excellent lighter style of Rum. — 9 years ago

($39.99) Delightfully rich flavor and finish. Not tawney at all. Hint of rum cake and toffee. Smooth, lmedium finish. Not cloyingly sweet.
