Tap @ brewery in October 2007. A dark golden amber color with a white head. A wonderfully strong roasted malt aroma. It smells so fresh and tasty, not unlike a homebrew.

rbsxg05, bottled. golden with a sparse head. bizarre aroma of red berries, bike tyres and brown sauce. quite sour, a bit composty, flat and got progressively worse

Another strange one from the Sydney RateBeer Xmas gathering. Cloudy orange with not much of a head. As noted previously, some savoury sauce somehow finds it’s way into the aroma, along with a dodgy chardonnay. However, this doesn’t stop it from having a rather bland flavour. Somewhat lasting finish, but I don’t know if that’s preferable!

Bright orange colour, slighlty hazey. began with burt sugar but as warmed up became more hoppy. Big hoppy taste but dry finish. Thanks Per

I really liked the aroma of this beer, tomatoes, worcestershire sauce, onion, brown sugar, a really funky mix of aromas to find in a beer. Unfortunately these characters didn’t translate to the taste, which was an underwhelming soft lagerish palate with just a hint of that saucy aroma. Interesting and surprisingly drinkable.
