Bottle shared at RBESG 2014 Grand Tasting. Hazy yellow color, small off-white to beige head. Aroma is hugely herbal and spicy. Tastes the same. Absolutely horrible, way way way too much herbs and spices, vegetables and plant like. Horrible.

Bottle shared during the RBESG 2014 London Grand Tasting - Moncada Brewery. Pours hazy gold with a creamy white head. The nose brings to mind pickle juice - not an entirely bad thing, since I like pickle juice. Light sweet flavor, somewhat drying, with soft melon notes and mellow grassy bitterness. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Abstractly fruity on the finish. Novel. Not bad.

Bottle at RBESG, 2014’s Grand Tasting at the Moncada Brewery. Hazy gold pour with a white head. Ginger, coriander and spicy fruit in the nose. Moss, grassy-malt, stewed veg and mint in the flavour. Not a fan of cucumber-esque.flavours in beers, unfortunately that’s the predominant flavour for me.

RBESG pt 18. Moncada. Grand tasting. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy palate, dry. Light dry malts. Mild spice. Juniper gin vibes. Whisper of mint. Dry finish. Curious but engaging.

Bottle from Beer Gonzo, Coventry. It pours hazy orange with a medium white head. The nose is soft, fruity, strawberry, cucumber, light jam and Victoria Sponge. The taste is rather bitter, big orange character, grapefruit peel, lime, sherbet, resin, pepper, light grass and dough with a lingering pretty dry finish. Medium body, moderate carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. Plenty of flavour for the abv. Fruity and rather bitter. Nice work!

Bottle from Beer Gonzo. It pours near black with medium a beige head. The nose is roasty, toast, dark chocolate, coffee and light vanilla. The taste is roasted malt, charred wood, light bitterness, coffee, nut, mild acidity and earth a dry, bitter finish. Light-medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty nice all round and a promising start to these guys.
