Yes, the rumours are true. A new winter brew has been keeping our brewers incredibly busy over the last few months - refining its delicate flavours and making sure it has aged just right. It's been hard coming up with a winter warmer that could meet the standard and reputation of our Australian Strong Ale. But we have and we are happy to announce a very special Porter brew that has been aged in rum barrels for some months now, and our hardworking brewers can proudly say that this is the first of its kind. Rum Rebellion Porter, a kissing cousin of stout, is the colour of porter and is not unlike the ruby-mahogany glow of dark rum. Left for some months to mature in rum casks, this higher gravity ale is decanted and blended to give it a considerable structure, flavour and head. During aging it takes on the earthy, vanilla undertone of oak, while rum echoes lengthen the palate to create a smooth, satisfying finish.

    Pours a beige head, light foamy. Leaves a nice lace Mahogany/chestnut. Some light bubble bead. A good look. Smells of coffee creams, and roasted grain, with a fine, wood thread. Full mouthfeel. Complex set of flavours, first with malt, some wood touches. Very slight hint of rum at the back. There is a mild bitterness to round it off. A kind of caramel allsorts, with rum & coffee. I could drink several of these (and probably will). I will also consider a trip into Squire's King St Wharf to see if they have it on draught.
