Reminds me of cough medicine. The rum and ginger are not blending well for me.

It has a very strong rum taste. It tastes more like liquor than beer. This is very heavy drink. The sampler is enough for me day drinking at 11.8%

From last night. Lots of ginger in the nose. Too much rum when drinking. Kind of a mess, actually. One could peddle this as snake oil.

The guava was unexpected. It’s really sweet. In a way I don’t love.

Should be called Rum Smiles. Searching for ginger amidst rum booziness and guava bitterness.

Unique and interesting but disappointing as well. Guava presents unexpectedly as floral and overpowers the Ginger. Reminiscent of Rum Runner (unfortunately). I like the idea of Rum aging but, I would recommend using a different Rum Barrel source.

Pour is reddish-gold with white lacing. The nose is a strange mix of spicy ginger and sweet guava. The taste is a bit of a complex wrestling match, with both flavors vying against the rum barrel. It can be difficult to piece anything together.

Does it taste more like rum or cough syrup? You be the judge.

Wow, this one has a LOT going on. The ginger and guava kinda hit you right in the mouth, and there’s like a bit of a bubbly vibe to it. Don’t think I’d drink a lot of this, but def worth trying. Very interesting.

Whoa. The aroma on this is great. Like a sweet guava ginger ale. Sweet, fruity, and just a hint of ginger. The flavor is more rum dominated. The spice of the ginger comes through and the barrel is a little more potent than I’d like to see for this

Strong guava nose. Guava tastrw and then a solid spicy ginger after taste. I normally don't like sweet beers but this one is damn solid. I hate that it's 20 bucks a bomber.
