Bottle. Amber beer with a big cream head. Spice and light banana aroma with yeast. Malt and spice flavor with light fruitiness and yeast. Medium bodied. Summer fruit and yeast linger with spice.

Bomber from the Woodland, CA CostCo. Pours translucent gold with a large creamy white head. Clean aromas of grass/zest/ginger. Med body. Flavor is zest, ginger, grass, maybe anise. Or not. Just a hint of earthiness. After awhile there seems to be some fruity esters. This is a strongly flavored ale, but itβs a sum of flavors rather than any particular one. Focusing on one aspect, like earth, makes it seem light in flavor. As is, the ginger gives it a light refreshing aspect. Itβs a good drink, but not over the top in flavor impact. The brewers may have nailed their goal.
