weihenweizen (6384) - Charleston, West Virginia, USA - DEC 21, 2016Refrigerated 16 oz aluminum can poured into a snifter. Black with small beige head. Aroma is oak, medium body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is chocolate, oak, and some rum.
b3shine (11340) - Noblesville, Indiana, USA - NOV 26, 2016Draft to mini-snifter yesterday at La Margarita in Indy. I’m not sure if this is from the original batch or if it was re-released, and if so, whether it’s Appleton Estate rum-barreled, so I’m rating it here rather than creating a new entry. Looks good; a slightly translucent very dark cola with mocha head that steadily dissipates into lacing. Smells rum-forward alongside strong notes of dark malt, dark chocolate, and oak. Tastes like it smells with a rummy/boozy full-bodied mouthfeel. Enjoyable, but nowhere near as good as the BB varietal.
RobertDale (10041) - Lansing, Kansas, USA - OCT 26, 2014On tap at Barley’s Brewhaus. Comes black with a decent tan head. Aroma of malt, chocolate, and alcohol. Taste is roasted malt, chocolate, dark fruit, and rum barrel. Very rich and creamy. Excellent.
HarvesterOfSorrow (2863) - Bourbon County, Minnesota, USA - OCT 24, 2014October 24, 2014 - on tap Darkness Eve at Stubs. Black pour with limited tan head. Aroma was chocolate, roasted malt and strong rum. Taste was a bit sweet and heavy on the rum. Still very good, but not on same level as the whiskey version.
AdamChandler (5974) - Enfield, New Hampshire, USA - OCT 19, 2014Pitch black nice legs. Nose is biting and sweet with boozy oak and a ton of vanilla. Taste is otherworldly. Thin and sweet. Coats the mouth with brown sugar and maple sap. The finish is when rum cones through
budznsudz (584) - Audubon, New Jersey, USA - OCT 18, 2014Poured from a 32oz crowler can straight from the source. Really special delicious beer. Silky smooth like butter on the tongue. The rum turns this into a beast unto itself. Wonderful creation I must say.
JustDrinkIt (261) - Arizona, USA - FEB 19, 2014On tap at World of Beer for Arizona beer week. Black pour, plenty of head. Aroma alcohol, chocolate, toffee. Flavor is a huge mouthful of rummy goodness, big alcohol presence, vanilla, caramel, and dark fruit.
Steasy66 (1156) - Minnesota, USA - JAN 4, 2014Tap at FOBAB. This is just all rum, strange, rummy, thin. I love Ten Fidy and this only detracts.
