RBESG2008: 50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a slowly collapsing white head. Light cornish aroma. Mash note too. Flavour is sweet cornish and light hoppy note towards the finish. Ends medium dry and light bitter.

Bügelverschlußflasche (kindly delivered by joss !): Orangey coloured, hazy, firm and stable white head with a little lace; fruity estery nose with traces of sweet pale-malt and shy hops; light to moderate sweet-bitter flavour with a light acidity; light to medium (7% !?) bodied; sweet-malty finish with a light fruitiness. Not convincing, tastes like an amateur brew....

(swing top bottle) Cloudy, orange colour with a thick but not very persistent, slightly yellow foamy head. Yeasty, moderately sweet barley aroma with notes of pop-corn and a subtle fruity touch. Moderately sweet flavour, medium to full bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. Yeasty and subtle fruity (grape-fruit, pears), barley-malty and grainy taste; moderately sweet yeasty and malty finish with a faint herbal hoppy touch. Not overly convincng but easy to drink. The brewery calls it a “Dunkler Bock” but actually it is not really dark (28.05.08).

Bottle. Grainy, somewhat buttery aroma. Cloudy orange amber, eggshell cream. Fruity, a good hit diacetyl herbal, light aromatic and grassy hops. Medium to light body, feels a bit flat. Hit the shelves too early I think, I’ll let the rest of the bottles fermant a bit more in the bottles, that should take care of the off-flavors
