Rum Sundae is an ambitious collaboration between English brewery Brew York and Swedish NERD Brewing. This imperial milk stout draws inspiration from the classic rum and raisin dessert, built on generous lactose and vanilla that create a creamy, ice-cream-like texture. The sweetness is balanced by a boozy rum character and subtle raisin notes, while 12% ABV provides warmth and depth without overwhelming the dessert concept.

The base version leads with lactose-driven sweetness and vanilla. For those seeking more: Brew York also released a barrel-aged iteration, matured in Plantation Rum casks for 12 months. This variant reveals rich oak, molasses and burnt sugar flavours that elevate the original dessert theme into more sophisticated territory.
