Bomber from Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours dark brown with garnet glints and a slight beige/tan head. Aroma suggests resin. Med plus body. Flavor is resin/citrus, followed by treacle notes, some vanilla and arguably some oak astringency. Overall the flavor is pretty good. It’s like a black IPA rather than a stout. New category! Black DIPA. With time I think a little more something like bourbon comes out. But bourbon flavored? That might be a bit generous. Oh well. It’s an absolutely delicious ale.
