Bomber. Okay, first thing--there is something wrong with this beer. When I poured it, slowly even, there was a centimeter of liquid at the bottom of the glass; the rest of the glass was all foam--a giant tan ice-cream-float-like head. Aroma is full of molasses, caramel. After that giant head finally disappears, the liquid greeting my tastebuds is lightly malty sweet, peaty, a touch sour. Carbonation is soft, body medium. Let me re-rate this when I get a normal bottle.

Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours thick and dark with some transitory tan bubbles. From a foot away the aroma seems anise. Up close it seems chcocolate and dark fruit. Near full body. Flavor is kind of a raisin/chocolate/anise combo. Finishes with a smokey note. Then it goes more like treacle/raisin. Ok, mysterious and complex work here.
