"Another difficult decision after a day of working on the house. Beer or Cocktail? Nope, no decisions. Both. A bit of a riff on a classic Rum Runner, I decided to whip up a little beer syrup with a nice juicy IPA that added some tasty notes of grapefruit and orange and split the base between a gin and a dry botanical rum. Juicy, just a bit funky, and a nice tropical way to shake off the day."
