On tap. RBESG Rome 2010 at "Oasi Della Birra". Comes at 12% ABV. Clear golden with a white head. Sweet malt in the nose and fat alcohol. Rather solid body with loads of metal and a metallic edge. Rather boozy finish. Almost a Malt Liquor. I’m a bit confused about this one being retired. The owner of the bar said that all of his tap beers came from German brewer "Herrnbräu". Maybe the brand has moved? 030610

Bottled (thanks KR!). Pale golden colour with small white head. Aroma is bready malts, some slight fruityness, herbs as well as quite strong grassyness. Flavour is being quite much the same. Not good, not bad either.

25 cL bottle, courtesy of Bov - huge thanks for providing me this rare beer for my rating no 12345. Pours dark brown with a golden amber glare and a small bubbly tan head. Aroma is dark malty and quite wineous. Sweet caramelish and smooth roasted malty. Dark breadish and light spiced too. Thick syrupy caramelish. Lingering malty into the far finish. Great stuff.

courtesy of cartdan. 1995 vintage. pours dark brown, no head, nice tainted golden stain on glass. aroma had hints of soy with malts, and a strong chocolate nose. Definitely nose of a beer that has some years on it. taste, boozy, soy, lots of caramel and lots of sediments. chocolate malts. All the fruit flavors of dark fruits are there and seem muted by the age and the soy like palate. They are noticeable but not as much as younger versions.

1993 bottle at Woodshop Quad. And who says a half ounce isn’t enough? Nose of toffee, alcohol, and caramel. Copper with only a couple bubbles. Flavor was sweet and alcoholic toffee and chocolate notes. Wish I had a whole bottle!
