Bottled(500ml). -RBESG2008, Grand Tasting.
Dark brown coloured, small pale brown head, light roasted nose. The taste is light roasted malt as well with chocolate and coffee. Smooth, somehow light acidic finish.

500ml bottle - gift from Fin - thanks! Shared with our host in Copenhagen, a closet beer nerd who really appreciated the chance to taste some English ales, so thanks from him as well!<br /> Black, beige head. Burnt stout aroma. Drying bitterness in the mouth, but also quite refreshing. Burntness dominates the finish.

(6/29/08) Bottle sample at RBESG08 grand tasting in Plzen. Black-colored beer. Aroma of roasted malt and some espresso. Sweet roasty flavor that continues drier. Medium-bodied.

Bottled @ RBESG Grand Tasting 2008. Hazy and very dark brown in colour with a small head. A bit on the thin and sharp side - notes of dark fruit, herbs and chocolate.
