Thank you tderoeck! Sampled @ “The Tasting formerly known as Mons RBBAG I (2014)”. Dark red amber with no head. Thick sugar nose, caramel, biscuit molasses, thick oak, molasses. Tad herbal, orange peel taste, lots of sweet malt, candy, lots of sugar, biscuit, caramel malt, lots of oak,.. caramelized apple. Thick malt body. I think that nr. 1 dominates slightly but 1 & 2 are both very similar. I preferred 1 & 2 over this one but not much difference.

Bottle at clocking new year. Pours orange with big nose of ripe fruit and booze. Tastes of soy sauce, caramel, ripened fruit, oak, vanilla, molasses, and booze. Harsh alcohol on finish and Way too sweet for me but it is ST after all.
