July 2016: RBESG 2016 in Barcelona. On tap at BierCab. Hazy brownish / amber colour. Malty and alcoholic aroma and flavour, some bitterness, but this was far from a well balanced and good beer.

October 2016: 330 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 8%. Cloudy yellow colour, low white head. Strong aroma of mango and fruity hops, also notes of pine needles. The flavour is first sweet and full of mango, then aggressive hops take over with a grapefruity and resinous bitterness.

September 2020: 330 ml slimline can, from Vinmonopolet Bryne. ABV is 6.5%. Cloudy pale yellow colour, large white head. Distinct piney and grapefruity aroma. The flavour is pleasant and smooth, medium dry, citrussy and well balanced with piney notes, but the bitterness is moderate. I can't single out any specific kveik notes.
