Aug 25, 2007 Updated: Aug 30, 2007Bottle at RBESG 07 ... Deep Black ... Nice deep fruityness with a little meatyness in nose ... zingy fruity mouth feel ... Lovely juicy ... very sweet ... good balance. rich and complex. The 1/2 Idjit was nice but im definitly a full Idjit. I do hope this is at Stockholm beer festival I truly think this beer deserves a second examiniation.

Port/sherry, strong warming alcohol feeling, prunes and cherries. Blends into a beautiful beer, which I’ll explore further at the first opportunity.

Aug 30, 2007 (RBESG 2007, Glasgow. Bottle) Blac color, almost no head. Malty, milky vanilla aroma, chocolate and rather roasted. Malty, milky, creamy and vinous flavor, oily as hell. Maybe a bit too sweet. Strong oily, malty finish. Alcohol is there but is still very well hidden.

Apr 4, 2008 Bottled at RBESG 2007. A brown beer with a red shine and no head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of roasted malty and alcohol. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of soy sauce, caramel, coffee, cinnamon, wood, and alcohol. The body is strong, and the alcohol burns in the throat.

Aug 30, 2007 Bottle, RBESG Grand Tasting 07. Dark brown, thin tan head. Roasted malty, slightly overmalted, some summery fruit with some vanilla and espresso tones. Mouth is very roasted malty, with some milk chocolate balance. Slips down well, but coating on the palate (oily?). Touch on the one-dimensional side. Finishes sweet and dry, deliciously.

Aug 28, 2007 A Mes rate:
Bottle at RBESG. Pretty much exactly as its little half brother but with some extreme knobs on. The extra alcohol is the only thing that stands out compared between the two and for me it tips it just a little too far into the extreme. Excellent beer all the same.

Hazy dark brown. Beige/brown head.
Extremely full-bodied. Vinous with raisins, chocolate, coffee.... Very sweet and almost oily.

Aug 31, 2007 Bottled at RBESG ’07. Dark brown, no head. Aroma of cocoa liqueur. Sweet and very potent. Concentrated flavour of cocoa powder, red berries and brandy. Full bodied is an understatement, it’äs massive. Still a bit young, so it’s rather sugary. A hugely warming beer with loads of character.
