Bomber to glass. Pours clear and deep brown with full brown head. Aroma of overt coffee and moderate chocolate. Taste is massive coffee,with chocolate and very slight roast in nice support. Viscous and oily mouthfeel.

On tap at the Barrel House. It pours a dark brown/black color with a light orange/tan head. The aroma is really nice with a good mix of chocolate and coffee. Mild acid. The flavor has more massive coffee roast and some smoke in the finish. Mild acidity while avoiding unpleasant tartness I get from these kind of beers way too often. A bit lighter bodied than expected with some light nutty notes of almond skins in the finish. A very well done coffee beer. A good quaffer.

Bomber from my friend Tim at the Bistro BABF. Nose is roast, coffee, roast, and more roast. Black with a big, lightly lacing beige head. Flavor is lightly sweet, lightly dark chocolately bitter, and tons of coffee.
