I always have a tin of Lyle's dark treacle in the pantry, the only difference is that the dark treacle is much more viscous than the molasses.

Yeah, a little different, but broadly similar. Within the context of a dark sugar addition to your brew, anything along these lines would suffice: brown sugar, treacle, molasses syrup, dried molasses, Belgian Dark Candi Sugar, homemade invert syrup, etc.

The dark sugar doesn't contribute nearly as much colour as you might think, if that's what you're worried about. The redness of this beer came from the darker malts for sure.
