Bottled. A murky orange beer with a rim of beige head. The aroma is sweet malty combined with notes of alcohol, berries, over ripe fruits, and flowers. The flavor is sweet with a slight acidic edge and notes of malt and fruit as well as a light touch of brettanomyces and grrapefruit. The alcohol leaves a slight burn on the palate, though nothing considering the 15.5% ABV, and gives it a good body. Thanks madsberg for sharing.

Bottled. Cloudy amber, viscous, minimal head. Lightly lactic acidic nose with muscatgrapes. Sweet and well rounded with massive body. Notes of peppery alcohol, soap and wood. Berryish and fruity. Soft, comples and complicated with some light lactic acidity. Absolutely unique beer.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of madsberg/Bov. Pours a slightly hazy, orangey brown with a yellowish head. Tart, brettish aroma with some wood. Medium body - the heavy alcohol is not felt at all. Extremely floral and perfumy accents, some oak and a dry finish. Interesting but not overly complex. 270607

RBSG07. From 75 cL bottle. Pours red with an off white head. Aroma is fruity and malty at once. Flavour is alcohol and not really fruity. Dry finish. Great beer.7-3-8-4-16=3.8

From 75 cL bottle, thanks to Papsoe. Pours hazy brown with a light off-white head. Lovely dried fruit and slight acidic aroma. Flavour is slight citric and lovely caramel sweet and slight roasted. Dried fruity. Nice acidic finish.7-4-7-3-15=3.6

75 cL bottle. Pours hazy and deep orane with a fully diminished off-white head. Acidic and barley heavy aroma. Slight fruity note. Woody and full aromatic flavour. Sweet and fruity. Sweet/acidic flavour leading into a nice slight woody finish. Very well hidden alcohol. Nice but reminds me of a dry flemish sour.6-3-7-3-13=3.5
