(Bottle, thanks to Håkan) Black colour with brief, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of strong black coffee, dark chocolate, liquorice, oak wood, bourbon and a touch of tar. Malty, roasted taste with black coffee, dark chocolate, liquorice, black bread, bourbon, vanilla, raisin, dates, oak wood and a warming, vinous finish with a balanced roasty bitterness. Full body, with a certain sweetness. Rich and warming, with a good bourbon wood character. Great beer!

Bottle. The body is full with a low carbonation that gives a smooth feeling over the palate. The flavor has low roasted malts that gives burnt coffee, chocolate and charred grain. the barrel is subtle and not overwhelming.

Bomber from AFH! Dark brown to black. No head. Smells like espresso bean and cocoa. With sweet honey. Nice dense, chewy baked-on flavor or brownie, chocolate, very tasty!! Love the rosary qualities.

Bomber from Cap Tap at 11.8%. Pours dark brn/blk with a lightly foamy beige/tan head. Aroma is very dark malt, dark fruits, bourbon notes. Full bodied. Flavor is dark treacle, dark fruit, earthy chocolate, vanilla, wood and bourbon notes. It does do an imitation of a Kraft caramel for a split second in the finish. Not dry at all. Fairly bitter considering all the malt. Heat is mostly hidden. Good stuff.
