Blind tasting at Papsø’s
Cloudy red amber color. The aroma is mild, sour, fruity, cherry kernels. It has a mixed sour, fruity, astringent flavor, with light residual sweetness, cherry kernels. The final is more dry and astringent. Maybe a bit confused.

Cloudy orange color. Quite nice and dynamic aroma, hoppy, fruity, sour; cellar aroma. Medium mouthfeel, there is some astringent toffee flavor, strong hopping, woody, a bit sour, definitively astringent.

Muddy amber color. Sour aroma and flavor, some fruitness hiding here and there, vinegar aggressiveness. Pleasant but missing some good points.

On tap at Dusty’s Tap Room, Okemos. Translucent brown body, medium dense, creamy buff head. Bitter, sprucey, toasty nose, herbal, with a touch of bubblegum. Leafy, earthy body with pine and burnt leaves in additino to bubblegum. Toasty malts with light sweetness. Long, bitter finish. Quite enjoyable.

Tap at MBG Summer Festival. Poured a molasses looking (not texture) dark brown with an off-white head. Aroma was malty with a slight sour and bourbon undertone. Similar flavor with a nice balance of the malts and the flavor picked up from the bourbon cask.

RBESG Sheffield 2009 Grand Tasting at the Harlequin. Hazy orange colour, off white head. Aroma of pineapple, peach, very fruity, sweet, a bit sour. Flavour is light sweet, fruity, peach, oak, yeast, light sour. Medium bodied. I think, considering the sourness, this was a bit infected, but I loved it.

RBESG Sheffield 2009 Grand Tasting at the Harlequin. Hazy golden orange colour, white head. Aroma of sourness, bit of peach, other stonefruits coming through, sweetness. Flavour is light sour, bit of peach, yeasty spiciness, light sour finish. Medium to fullbodied. Excellent balance, really nice stuff. I don’t like peach or really sour beers, but this was one tasty brew!
