Commercial Description:
Available filtered and pasteurised in 500ml bottles.
"Beers for bottling are drawn from brewery conditioning tanks and transported by road tanker to our bottlers. There they are chilled, stored for ten days, then filtered and bottled. At the end of the bottling process, the bottles are pasteurised, labelled and packed."
"Distinctive balance between the flavours of fruity Golding variety hops, Maris Otter malted barley and demerara sugar. Strong and refreshingly long, dry and bitter finish."

Bottle. Copper color with creamy head. Fruity and caramelly Goldings hop aroma with some tartness, marmelade, minerals and bready malt. Quite dry, salty and bitter flavor with notes of toasted malt and caramelly Goldings hops. Finishes salty and bitter with a Golding signature. Too carbonated, tasted much better when excessive fizziness was shaked off.

Bottled. Coppercoloured, mediumsized white head. Aroma of hops, malts and fruit. Some sour notes also. Flavour is grassy hoppy with weak fruitish notes. This is just pure crap, just the like the crappy TV soap opera this most likely is named after...

500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal, Stavanger. ABV on the label is 4.2%, also confirmed by the brewery website. Has the ABV really been 5% before and changed? or has the ABV at RB simply been incorrect all the time? Clear amber colour, large off-white lasting head. Moderate carbonation. Moderate but pleasant hoppy aroma, hints of fruits, oak and leather. Flavour is mildly spicy and fruity, slightly acidic. Tolerable hops in the finish. Refreshing and easy drinking. Not too bad for a pasteurised moderate-ABV bitter.

Golden brown colored, little white head. Caramel, hops, mild sweet bitterness. Medium bodied. Sweet caramel start in flavor, ends to have crispy, dry and mildly metallic and honeyish aftertaste.

Aroma: small amount of crystal malt and some fruit. Noticeable weird notes when I opened the bottle. Appearance: crystal clear orange/brown with a just off white head that leaves sheet lacing. Flavour: Some vanilla followed by light malt and some fruity and hoppy notes. Palate lingering sweetness, medium mouthfeel.
