Sample at the brewpub. The beer pours a clear orange color with a medium creamy white head that dissipates slowly. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Citrusy hops and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of floral hops, citrus and malt. The finish is hoppy with a lingering citrus aftertaste. Pretty solid IPA all around.

On tap for a beer club party I had. I didn’t rate at the time, but I drank significant amounts of this, which resulted in a bad hangover and then I had to take a plane overseas. Perhaps because of that I don’t like what Ernst’s evil spell has done to me, but the beer itself is nothing short of great. Silky smooth body with lots of coffee, chocolate malt note with hints of oatmeal. It was so smooth tasting that when the beer was initially served too cold, I thought it would make a great breakfast beer. Lingering chocolately finish. Great stuff.

On tap. RBESG Rome 2010. Pours an opaque black with a beige head. Sweetish hard roasted malt in the nose - plenty of vanilla as well. Medium body, lots of sweet chocolate malts a and vanilla. Hardly any malt bitterness. A bit to the sweet side - even for a sweettooth like me. 060610

On tap at Blue Palms (Listed as Pizza Port San Clemente Bizon Belgian IPA). Pours with a just hazed golden body and a large white head that leaves some pretty solid lacing. Aroma is floral (belgian yeast), and citrus. Nice hoppy and bready presence. Taste is pineapple, bready, floral, citrus and lavender. Super dry finish with some banana notes. Lively bubbles, dry, grainy and bitter.
