16 oz. bottle shared at Ashley's house. Thanks Ashley! Light coffee and strong booze aroma. Pitch black pour with a small beige head and fair retention. Sweet coffee and sweet molasses stout flavor. Definitely a pasty stout. Smoother than expected. A bit more molasses and booze flavor than I like. Okay.

Bomber my daughter has had for a couple years. Nose is chocolate, marshmallow, and a hint of roasty expresso. Black with a medium, lightly lacing tan head. Flavor is tiramisu all over, expresso forward, marshmallow, shortbread, and chocolate.

Bomber from Trader Joe's in Davis, CA. Pours dark brn/blk with a foamy tan head. Aroma of chocolate and vanilla. Med body or so. Flavor is vanilla, chocolate and dark burnt malt. Not dry. Burnt malt bitter. Hmmm

Deep dark brown coloured body with a relatively thick, three to four centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat nicely. Aroma of icing sugar, vanilla, canella, allspice and a dash of nutmeg, all with some relatively strong alcohol scents coming through and a good sweetness noticeable, in the nose, at least. Medium to Full-bodied; Rich roasted malt flavours dominate here with a great kick of sweetness from the icing sugar, lactose, cream and vanilla here that is somehow balanced pretty well, still on the rich side, with some spices to provide some complexity here. Aftertaste is rich and sweet, with the alcohol coming through nicely with the spices lasting a long time, especially the nutmeg and canella here, bringing out a nice complexity with the sugars and the rich roasted malts. Overall, a very enjoyable beer, much better than I expected, with a good balance throughout, especially with the sugars and the malts, but the spice and alcohol hit well, too. I sampled this 65 cL bottle, purchased from Trader Joe's in Washington (West End/Georgetown), D.C. on 24-November-2021 for US$3,99 (good deal!) sampled almost a year later, a few minutes after finishing my 8th USMC Marathon, with my wife on 30-October-2022, at my house here in Washington, a few blocks from the start line of the race.

Vanilla and chocolate. Dark brown pour with little head. Some roast. Kind of gimmicky on overall flavour. Bottle from Trader Joe's.

Bomber from Trader Joe's. Black pour with waning brown head. Just like their chocolate Babka stout, this is on the money for taste. Not as sweet as the Babka, but plenty of chocolaty notes, light coffee. Nice feel overall as well. Price point is attractive at $3.99. Good bargain.

$3.99 bomber, TJs. Clear dark brown with a small beige head. Nose is chocolate cake, vanilla, roasted malt, cocoa powder... smells somewhat cheap, but not sickeningly sweet at least! Artificial flavoring all around, but it's not bad. Chocolate cake, frosting, cocoa, roast, vanilla, caramel. Bittersweet; not bad despite it's artificialness.

Bottle purchased from my local Trader Joes. $3.99! Great price point for an okay beer. Poured a nearly pitch black color with a medium sized brown head. Aroma was a lot of chocolate, cream. Roasted malts, chocolate cake frosting. Alcohol is just about right too. A touch sweet and there's a very light artificial note to it, but man, that price point is no joke, it's more palatable than one of my local breweries that pumps out beers similar to what this one was going for.
