Bottle@Home. To me it tasted like a pretty boring strong lager. Nothing else there but maybe a hint of caramel and some yellow fruits.

RBESG 2009 @ the Harlequin. Golden colro with white head. Malty, decnt hops but rather boring and uninspired. Thin body.

bottle at home .... hazy yellow ... thing white lacing .... soft honey yeasy nose ... bitter fruit hop ... light dry ... not for me ...

Gold blond colour, lots of carbonation, small white head. Aroma is hops and malts, some pepper. Sparkling in mouth, hoppy, fresh, but it’s more like a pilsner with a shot of alcohol. Nice finish though, the alcohol is well hidden.

From the Bottle at RBESG Harlequin, Sheffield 19/07/2009 Hoppy aroma. Golden coloured and hoppy with a crisp slightly dry and fruity finish.

At an mitra in purmerend, bottle 30cl, golden, medium lasting head, some hinds of fruits and caramel, but most boring and malt liquor alcoholboost like.

After the beer was served in the glass there was found a lasting quantity not wall adhesive white foam collar which was fine and evenly of structure. The beer also contained much carbonic acid in the glass. The beer has a clear golden color and a sweet taste. The after tast of the beer is hoppy bitter with a fruity touch. This beer smells fruity.

4-way bottle tasting at Arendsnest. Pale gold with a tall head. Slightly citrus nose. Refreshing taste of oragnes, with some bananas notes. Warming finish.
