The iconic rum maker's "Muck Pit Brew," described as a "tropical beer-inspired drink with a gently fizzy twist, combines spiced rum, hops, and vibrant Caribbean vibes."
The flavours are inspired by hops, which are a common ingredient found in beer, and fermented fruits such as mango.

It's available to purchase online in packs of 12 for £30 and can also be found in select venues across the UK.

Some punters have already got their hands on the drink and described it as "delicious".
Another customer said online: "I drank this at ParkLife festival and bought more for home - absolutely delicious and very different.
"It's a really interesting blend but definitely works - especially in warm weather."
Nin Taank, marketing manager at Captain Morgan, said: "We wanted to give people something different to drink when out with their friends.
"The drink draws inspiration from production methods steeped in tradition and perfectly blends these with current trends for tropical flavours to create a truly unique drink that not only draws from the past, but also looks to the future. "
