RBSG ’08: Poured a hazed dark amber color with an off-white head. Toffee and milk chocolate aroma. The flavor was of roasted malt and chocolate. Mild warmth. Smooth mouthfeel with a light carbonation.

Oct 31, 2008 Draft, courtesy of KrausenJockey. Thanks!! Pours a murky brown color; patchy, fine-bubbled lacing. Sweet wet malts and toasty malts in the aroma; light cinnamon and breadiness. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: loads of sweet maltiness, wet malts, and chewy caramel and dense sugar; lively, dense, intense maltiness; layered sweetness; chewy malts and brown sugar. Lengthy finish: chewy sugar, wet malts, and lengthy sweetness.

Sep 15, 2008 Sample at Stone Brewing; i don’t really remember other than what alexanderj wrote down. I thought it was sugary but roasted; as well as being grassy and yeasty.

Sep 8, 2008 Sample at Stone Brewing; caramel and red in color. Fruity and caramel aroma with some cocoa. Flavor was like that of a solid barleywine; caramel and fruit predominantly. A bit of hopping. Golubj liked it a bit more than me giving it a 3.7; he thought it was sugary but roasted; as well as being grassy and yeasty.
