Jul 19, 2005 (Draught) Sampled at the Belgium Comes To Cooperstown 2005 in Cooperstown, NY. Pours a deep copper body with a medium, frothy, beige head. Nose is lactic and red wine. The flavours are milky, farmy with sour cherries. Average.

Jul 19, 2005 Updated: Mar 5, 2007Bottle... RBSG2005... Very dark ale with a mid-sized, frothy, well-tanned head. Good retention. Yeasty, Flemish nose with notes of chocolate, plum, light coffee, pineapple and horseblanket. Well-balanced flavor delivers plenty of semi-sweet chocolate and lemon with lesser notes of red wine and wet leather. Medium-bodied and lightly oily with lively carbonation. Finishes crisp, tart and dry.

Jul 19, 2005 Updated: Nov 12, 2005Wow, extremely sour beer. Much like a flemish sour, tasted like a sweetened vinegar. Couldn’t finish a whole bottle myself, but I’m glad I tried it.

Jul 18, 2005 2005 RBSG - Sour, citrus aroma, vinegar. Barnyard, corn silage aroma also. Very sour palate, astringent, however drinkable. Strong citrus presence, I kept writing vinegar on my rating sheet.

Jul 17, 2005 Bottle thanks to jeffin7: Dark brown, mostly opaque, with a small biege head that sticks to the side of the glass and lasts throughout the time I’m tasting this beer. Aroma is a bit barnyard funky at first, then shows pepper, sour yeast, light fruits, and hints of chocolate and roast. I dive in. Tastes of roasted malts, chocolate, barnyard, lemon, herbs, and leather with plenty of acidity. This strange mix of roasted/chocolate and acidic/citrus & sourness really works well.

Jul 17, 2005 RBSG2005. Couleur noire, moyenne quantité de mousse beige pale adhérant à la paroi du verre, faible dégagement gazeux lors du service. Particulièrement levuré en arômes, olive, croûte de pain brun, dattes et miel. On y reconnaît facilement l’influence Fantôme Black Ghost en bouche, toujours très levuré style oxalide, racines, réglisse noire. Corps d’épaisseur mince à semi mince, faible carbonatation, finale exposant l’amertume des levures.

Jul 16, 2005 Updated: Oct 14, 2007Bottle #54. Nose is woody and has notes of chocolate and coffee. Taste-highly acidic, citric, coffee, chocolate, and straw. Very odd mixture of citric acid, tannins, coffee, malt, dark fruit, and chocolate touch of smoke as it warms. Mouthfeel loses points for the stinging acidity.
