Draft at Bridge in StL. Very pale, dirty color. A lightly poopy small and thin and some yogurt. Light vomit but within acceptable limits. 636313

12 oz. can. Pours a pale golden hue with a very small white head. Aroma of grains, honey, mild fruitiness. Taste follows nose with some melon notes. Faint cooked vegetables in the finish. OK summer beer.

Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can poured into a glass. Black with small beige head. Aroma is chocolate, medium body, low carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is chocolate and coffee.

pour is a motor oil black with almost no head. Aroma is a minor roasted malt but there is a nice follow up bitter bakers chocolate. Flavor is again a minor roasted malt but a lot more of the vanilla comes out in the flavor. I did not get much coffee other than a roasted bitterness but the malt and vanilla more than make up for the lack of coffee. This was a fine impy stout with just enough bitterness to counter act the sweetness.

16oz can pours a clear gold with a ring of white head. Nose has... Well... Not much, honey, marigolds, dandelion, sun tea. Flavor is sweet with honey, sweet tea, flower petals. Finishes watery and a touch sweet.

Can courtesy of Strykzone Santa, thanks! Hazy golden color, white head. Aroma of white pepper and hay. Taste is lightly peppery straw. Decent.

Some roast and light walnut aroma. A good Missouri beer. Soft raw grain aroma. Light chocolate. Velvet texture. Nice smooth, easy drinking beer. Tap at Springfield airport.

RBESG 2016 in Barcelona, Grand Tasting. Dark brown colour. Dryish roasty aroma. Roasty dry flavour. A "thirteen in a dozen" porter. One-dimensional.

9th July 2016: can at the RBESG, traded from Greg Wilson, via me. Light haze to the deep amber/brown body, on top a beige crown. The nose and taste both had a caramel, coffee and chocolate leaning but this was not a sweet brew, it had a some dry bitterness throughout, especially in the finish.
