Aug 10, 2004 Hazy amber body with a large bubbly head. Its malty aroma got some pepperish and celery hints. Taste is also relatively complex. It is soft and sweet, but ends with a pronounciated bitter final. Very nice beer.

Jul 23, 2004 I had this as a cask version, and from what I remember from a while back, it’s quite different from the nitro-tap version. Hops here predominate in the nose, and hoppy caramel notes are very present in the mouth. The mouthfeel is light, and slightly carbonated, not ultra-smooth like the nitro. I didn’t find this to really be an Irish cream ale, but I don’t really care. Fruity, good beer. Cask.

Apr 30, 2004 I found this somewhat too hoppy for the style with undertones of caramel and toffee. The first three brews I tried there didn’t impress, but it was all up hill after that

Mar 3, 2004 Red ambered beer with a slightly roasted aroma with malts coming out. Some malts in mouth with sour apples, not hoppy, very light in body for DDC.

Nov 27, 2003 brownish red colour. soft and malty with some orange and caramel notes, but overall not a mind blower. too bad because these guys make some stellar beers.

Oct 6, 2003 Updated: Jul 13, 2005Re-Rate RBSG 2005. Dark amber body, good sized white head. Sweet aroma, touch of something… muted fruit. Flavour is likewise, just a touch of bitterness. Meh. Adequately executed example of a style I don’t really care for, average. <P> Heard in conversation:?: I liked the blonde and the triple. R: I thought you said “I’d date the blonde or the cripple!” W: Yeah, she’s not gonna run her ass away.
<P> Original Rating October 2003. Light amber colour. Good fluffy head and great lacing. Bit of malt. Hints of earthy notes. Nice but lacklustre. 5/3/5/3/12

Oct 1, 2003 (Draught) Pours a medium, white head and an amber body. Slight roasted malt nose but not much there? A milky malt flavour. Average.

Sep 23, 2003 Little aroma to speak of although to be fair, there were perhaps a lot of smokers present at the time of tasting. Pale amber colour with nice light frothy head. Some roastiness in the flavour with ealy caramel sweetness and quite a bitter finish. Somewhat light in body although heavily carbonated. Worth another try - perhaps earlier in the day when the room is less smoky. On tap.
