Aug 28, 2008 Draft... RBSG ‘08... Clear, lightly golden ale with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Great retention. Restrained, grainy, biscuity nose with peppery hops. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Tastes like honey... a little too sweet and grainy for me. Finishes sweet with just a touch of metallic bitterness.

Aug 16, 2008 RBSG 2008. Pours gold with a small white head. Well balanced, pairs a soft caramel and honey start against some fruity hops. The hops give a touch of spiciness in the finish. Decent golden, but not very memorable.

Aug 6, 2008 From tap at Carlsbad. Pours clear and golden yellow with a white head. Aroma is sweet and of light honey. Light herbal honey touch in the flavour to a nice sweet malty base flavour. Light spiced hoppy too. Lingering sweet honey finish with a light hops bitterness.

Aug 5, 2008 Poured light, bright, kinda pissy yellow with a short, sticky cap of white head. The aroma picked up honey upfront with pale malts and floral notes not far behind.. quite sweet. The flavor was sweet overall with pale malts and honey again.. dry grassy bitterness.. finished with unpleasant artificially-sweet honey. Light-bodied and dry (but still too sweet and artificial).. not much carbonation.. didn’t care much for this.
