Can from Bine & Vine. Pours dark, ruddy copper with a huge beige/tan frothy head. Aroma of pine with some toffee support. Med plus body. Carbonation seems weak, but the head indicated otherwise. Flavor is not all that dry, but there's a lot of pine for bitter. It's clearly an amber, but there's enough hop bitter to render it palatable. Works for me.

Bomber brought to me by my daughter and son in law from the brewery along with a Shepherds Pie family meal that KR has been doing for pickup during the quarantine. Nice piney hops with some toffee and lightly bitter.

Sample at GABF 10/05/2019, thanks to kathryneels for assistance with note-taking. Clear reddish-amber color with a medium frothy off-white head that diminishes gradually to a dense film. Small patches of lace. Malt, fruit and hops in the nose. Medium body with flavors of caramel malt, earthy hops and fruit. The finish is malty up front with a piney hop aftertaste. Above average overall.
