2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle, RBESG Grand Tasting 07. Again, a never ending fountain of froth eventually subsided and permitted me to grab a glass of this. Blonde, thin white head. Nose is funky hop, some malty touches, floral dry hop tinge. Mouth is watery hoppy, some citrus. Very watery, no palate to speak of at all really. Slightly warm end.

(RBESG 2007, Glasgow. Bottle) Golden color, white head. Hoppy, citric, grassy aroma. Hoppy flavor with floral notes, bready and with a somewhat hoppy finish.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottled, RBESG 2007.
Rather light and thin, but there are lots of hops in there. Could have done with some more body.

This beer was a crazy beast!! Took magic dav about 4 glasses before the explosion stopped when we opened this at RBESG. Lol. Apale amber orange colour with a foamy head. Aromas are quite rubbery with a toast hints. Carbonation well extreme from the explosion with a good bitter finish and hops but hard 2 distinguish what hops are used. Ok but not a great ipa

A Mes rate:
Bottle at RBESG. Are all Colonsay beers infected? 3 out of 3 at the gathering. Bready malt upfront, light bitterness in the finish. Very run of the mill and from what I tasted, just about to turn really nasty.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle thanks to Craig, rbesg07. Possibly the most lively beer ever made, lost over 1/2 the bottle. Aroma is malty and floural. Taste is more biscuit malt, hints at pale malt and again bitter floural hops. Just stop putting so much bloody yeast in it.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Slightly clowdy orange (possible sediment) nice Orangy citric hop nose,clean very fruity citrus crisp and fresh.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Bottle, Partick Farmers Market, Glasgow) Very malty, with an unremarkable nose, though is dark in colour and is very heavily hopped, with a very bitter aftertaste. Despite the claim from the makers that this is an ideal session beer, it is certainly good for one or two - and it certainly is ideal for a sunny day!
