Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours light golden amber with a slight off-white head. Aroma is floral/fruit/herb. About med body. Flavor is bitter, a mix of evergreen, herb, floral and peach. There’s a lightly roasted malt backbone. Finishes quite tasty, astringent, and more dry than not. Very good stuff.

Draught. A heathery ale with a sweetish but balanced aroma. Very sweet flavour but not cloying. Sweet finish.
