Draft. A pitch black beer with a brown shine under a tan head. The aroma has notes of sweet malt, caramel, soy sauce, coffee, and some alcohol. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, soy sauce, roasted malt, and a good deal of alcohol, that tickles the tongue, the finish is dry, roasted, and bitter.

Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival. Very dark brown, minimal head. Powerful coffee aroma. Mid-sweet with streamlined malt profile. The alcohol is well hidden, the bitterness steadily ramped up into the resiny coffeeish finish. A competent, notoverly intrusive imperial stout.

From tap at Pizza Port Carlsbad. Pours almost pitch black with a lacing tan head. Aroma is hardroasted malt and coffeeish. Roasted sweet malt flavour. Caramel lingering note to the roasted malt. Goes slight dryer towards the finish with a nice lingering hoppy and caramel mixed flavour.

Pitch black color, small brown ale. Roasted-licorice, bourbon nose. Smooth oily mouthfeel. Lots of whisky, coffee beans, roasted malts. Warming, lots of alcohol. Interesting.

Draft... RBSG ‘08... Pours a dark, burnt orange, but sits pitch black in the glass with a small, wispy, khaki head. Notes of coffee and dark chocolate rule the aroma... also a good bit of soy sauce and acetaldehyde. Full-bodied and oily with restrained carbonation. Deeply roasted, with good bitterness from the alcohol and hops, but overall, the flavor tilts toward the sweet side of balance. Acrid finish.

Pours dark brown with a nice tan head. Smells of chocolate, earthy, some dry malt. Tastes of spice, roasted malt, some pepper. Dry finish. Decent.
