2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
RBESG Sheffield 2009, day 3, The Fringe, Manchester. Bottle. Dark brown colour, white head. Aroma was almost absent, just a hint of dark malts and some sugar. Flavour is very metallic, malty, brown sugar, dull, thin. Light bitter finish.

Cookie and caramel in the nose, hazy pale ruddy-brown. Thin sticky head. Sweet toffee malts with some plum and currant tastes. A fizzy dry end. Medium body. Enjoyable for sure, though not terribly exciting.

First I thought that this is a terrible brew - it is average. It has to warm up a little bit to show it’s good sides. Fizzy medium sized head on hazy murky brown liquid. Alcohol and almond nose, weird malt nose too. Strong alcohol taste - to offensive, also malt and raisons.

Bottled 33cl. Tall, nicely lasting light beige head. Yeasty with coconut being rather present. Sweet. Nothing special.

Bottled. Deep, rich, true brown body, soft smallish (for the style) beige head. Nutty malts, with some milk chocolate qualities. Not a stand out but still very easy drinking.
