| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 18, 2006 RBSG 2006 - Grand Tasting. Thanks to The_Beer_God for bringing this bad boy. Deep mahogany body and a flat head with no carbonation. Aroma is of nutty madeira, hazelnuts, and vanilla bean with a light peaty aspect. Flavor brings out some characteristic plum and fruit skin qualities, aged open malts, very smooth bourbon, and surprising smoky notes. A nice and decadent variation on a truly great American beer. aracauna (2425), Georgia, USA
