Location: 22 oz bottle from Colonial Wine and Spirits, 4/17/12
Aroma: The nose has some yeast, bready malts, a little spice, and some grass
Appearance: It pours a clear golden-orange with a lasting, thin sheet of white head
Flavor: Tastes lightly sweet, fairly malty and yeasty, with a light earth/spice/grass bitterness
Palate: The body is medium, with a soft carbonation, a fairly clean feel, and a slightly dry finish
Overall Impression: Overall, this one is pretty solid. I enjoyed it, I thought it drank pretty well, and it seemed to be a nice example of the style. It isn't an outstanding beer, but I think "pretty solid" really sums it up.

Bomber from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours lightly hazy light amber with a small, foamy off-white head. Aroma is pretty bready, and the noble hop aspect seems rather mild. Med + body. Wow - this is pretty spicy (along with bready). Stacks up well to Victory’s St. Boisterous. This beer is very tasty, and I recommend you get some. Finishes bready/malty with herby/grass/spicy noble hop. Is it sweet? Is it bitter? Is it a bit of both? Good stuff. That from a guy who usually isn’t all that fond of bottem fermented beer.

First rating woot! Pour is a dark red with a small white head. Aroma is some caramel malts and maybe some alcohol. Flavor is again some caramel malts with a touch of chocolate and a very herbal hopping toward the end. Something different and another good for from a MO brewer.
