Bomber pours clear deep gold with wafer thin white head. The aroma is sort of sugar sweet prunes, black grapes and raisins to go along with faint malts with a hint of stale cardboard and even fainter spicy hops. The taste is much the same with an initial pulse of sweet dark fruity esters, some caramel and mildly roasty malts, some of the organic malty stale twang mixing in with light yet building noble hops. The fruity esters and mild caramel create a moment of barleywine style sensation. Above average offering from Bison.

Aroma of honey and pale malt. Hazy ripe apricot color with a white head that lazed about. Lace tatters. Medium body with creamy carbonation. The flavor is caramel and herb. There’s hop, but it’s either grassy or floral. It’s got a really pleasant impact. A little spice. It’s nice. Amazing flavor for a lager. The finish is dry and ... It’s good, but difficult for me to describe. Try it, you’ll like it. I was really surprised.

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of straw, and so is the flavor, though notes of grass is added to the flavor. Fine, but nothing special.

Bottle from Bottle Barn, Santa Rosa; Nose of alfalfa, grain, and light caramel malt; clear gold with a big off white head that nicely laces the glass; flavor has mild hop bitterness mixed with sweetness, caramel, and graininess, in a medium body with a little bitterness in the finish balanced with some lingeriing caramel.
