650 ml bottle. Pours a dark brown/red with very little head. Aromas of dill, bourbon, and dark fruit. Flavor are similar with additional notes of oak and sour mash. Interesting mighty mix. Stands out.

From the August 2014 3R6P tasting. +++ Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a very dark brown color with orange highlights and a large foamy tan head that lingered and left decent lacing. The aroma was tart and sour cherry, vinegar, banana, bubblegum and port wine. The flavor was tart and sour port wine, vinegar, banana, a hint of vanilla and coconut. Medium length finish. Moderately full bodied. Very complex. Interesting.

Bomber from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours really dark copper. Brown without strong light. Tan head. Mixed bourbon/vanilla and rye spice for aroma. Tickles. Dark fruit. Treacle. Med + body. Flavor is mixed - dark fruit, apparently alcohol, rye spice, bourbon, pretty roasty malt. It’s just a little bit wood tart. Quite a complicated taste thrill. Finishes a mite treacle, but with all the other flavors, why care.
