Deep blond color. It has a strange aroma, rum and fudge or candies. Sweetish, no beer flavor, just the same fudge/rum weirdness; the final is therefore disturbing. Bad.

Bottled(330ml). -my second rum flavoured beer and much better than Cubana 59, tiramisu and coconut nose, taste is similar to vanilla-rum ice cream

Bottle. Golden colour with a small white head. Caramel rom aroma and a light vanilla rom taste. Medium body and a sweet rom finish.

Bottled. Flat, pale beer with a little head. The aroma is vanilla and the flavour is vanilla , with a dry finish. Sweet, syrupy and watery notes also come to mind. Overall a very poor beer.

Bottle. Golden with not much foam. Aromas have lots of vanilla - it smells like ice cream with alcohol and coconut. Flavours are less impressive, vanilla is still present followed by a dry, rum alcohol burn, followed again by vanilla and a bitter finish. A bit thin on the palate. The ingredient list is frightening - lots of flavourings. Its an odd beer that is better than I thought it would be.
