May 12, 2009 Bottle of batch 001 at the “Drink for Charity” event at Rattle & Hum. Pours a hazy gold with a thin white head. Aromas of apricots, plums, wheat, and a bit of alcohol. Thin and malty. Finished with a slightly funky egg note that was a bit off putting.

May 9, 2009 Batch 40. Pours clear golden, with a thin white head, good lacing. Smells of citrus, grass, apple, coriander, pine, and caramel. Medium-thin, velvety body. Tastes of caramel, pineapple, with some floral and grassy hop flavors. Medium bitter aftertaste, slightly dry. Pretty drinkable and delicious.

May 5, 2009 05/04/2009. 750ml bottle from beerstore. Way way way too much clove to be a serious Belgian. Taken as an American imposter it ain’t bad... drinkable but it does taste like 9% or more and it sure does lack subtlety and character beyond ’cheap Belgian strong ale’. If these guys have made 46+ batches it makes me realise just how good the first Emerson’s JP was. Respect to the Old Dick!

Apr 27, 2009 Nice Belgian clove flavor with not as over the top flavors as the Batch 23 bottle I had but hey this one has half the ingredients. If your a fan of Belgian beers this one will not disappoint. My bottle was a year old and had some yeast sediment in the bottle but damn that aids in the bottle conditioning and this one is not one to shy away from at all. I recommend trying all the RR goods.
