Bomber from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours black with a foamy tan head. Mild aroma of squash with a little bit of cinnamon accompaniment. Dark malt too. Med body or so. Flavor fairly matches aroma. Moderately bitter. Fairly dry. If there's hop, it seems earthy. Ok drink. Nice that it wasn't super spiced.

Kroger bomber. Pours dark brown with a large brown head. Aroma is roasted malt, caramel, chocolate. Flavor is roasted malt, brown grass and leaf, light vegetation, some back end spice. Would not know this was a pumpkin beer other than the label. It's fine and drinkable, but completely unmemorable.

Bomber from Brewers Haven. Pour is right for the style, dark, black, skin of beige head. Aroma is amazing, roasty malts, chocolate, pumpkins (fruit, not spice). Taste is a bit more subdued than the nose, more of a straight forward schwarzbier, bitter and roasty. Seems thin, but aroma makes up for a lot.
