750mL bottle at the brewery, 4/3/24. Deeply brassy with strong copper highlights. Small, white head to feeble cover quickly. Bright and juicy with some moderate acidity and typical house cultures/minerality. Good mellowness and a touch of kiwi tropicality. A bit of powdered sugar or pez. Maybe that's the kiwi. It seems to dissipate. Juicy, with moderate maltiness and high attenuation. Light cracker and biscuit. Lingering fruit tannin. Clean and snappy, shorter fruit finish. The acidity is lovely and everything is cohesive at this point.

500 ml bottle. Courtesy of explosive dog. Thanks. Pours a dense, opaque, black color with a small brown head that soon fades away. The aroma is big and bold with black licorice, chocolate liquor and raisins. The taste, like the aroma, is licorice, chocolates, sweet vanilla and candied dark fruits. Bitterness is mild and understated. The palate is full, thick and oily with soft carbonation. Finishes long and glorious with lingering sweet licorice. Overall: decent IRS, but a bit on the sweet side. Paired well with some estate gouda cheese.

RBESG 2023, Zagreb Grand Tasting. Thanks! Dark. Roasty, nutty, charred wood, liquorice aroma. It's quite old school. Roasty flavour, lightly burnt, with some fruity character. Medium to full, sticky body.
