Bottle @ ORL throwdown, courtesy of Beerlando. Pours a hazy golden with a slight white head. Bready caramel malts, bananas, tart and some brett spiciness on the nose. Same elements in the flavor with some candi sugar evident. Tart and hop bitter finish. Quite dry. Nice fluffy mouthfeel. Very good.

Bottle shared at Cleveland tasting, by Paul I believe! Pours coppery color with a soapy beige colored head. Aroma is straw, citrus, grass, spices. Flavor is light malts, citrus, light fruits, yeast. Palate is medium bodied, medium plus on the carbonation, finished with light tartness. Not sure on the age of the bottle, but i held up well. Good stuff!

RBSG 2008. Sometime I really enjoy trying a beer and having no idea what the heck it is, this was one of them. Nice orange pour holding up a soft white head. Sweeter start to the flavor, but then quickly changes to a tart sour finish. What once was a citrus candy like flavor changes to tart cherries and bretty wild yeast goodness.

Bottle shared at Cleveland tasting on 8-23-08. Thanks!! Bottle pours orange with a off white head. Has a nice aroma of citrus fruits, apples, earthy tones, and some funk. The flavor is citrus fruit, candy sugar, and some funky yeast. Medium bodied and extremely carbonated that leads to a dry, bitter finish. There was a lot of carbonation in this one for an aged bottle, but it made things interesting. This was really good, and glad I got to try it.
