Bomber pours clear copper with a tan colored head of foam. The aroma offers up a bit of pumpkin and brown sugar and maybe some floral hop notes off in the background. The taste has lots of malts and brown sugar sweetened pumpkin as well as a light amount of vague sort of winter spices.

Bomber from Bine & Vine. Pours dark orange brown with a bubbly beige head. Aroma is pretty much spice, but there is a touch of cooked squash. Med body. Flavor is pie spice. There’s a touch of brown sugar. And a hint of cooked squash. This is not so heavily spiced as many. Nice change of pace.

ChrisOs Crimbo Tasting. Hazy amber beer with a tidy cream coloured head. Light and semi dry palate. Fresh pumpkin with a trace of lacto. Supporting spices are obvious but for a change not overdone. Finishes smooth and semi dry with sweetish pumpkin. Not bad at all.

This brew pours a clear orange color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet malt and spices. Medium body with an array of spices that don’t quite equal pumpkin. Lots of clove, cinnamon and honey along with a bready malt base. The finish is sweetly spiced with a short malt aftertaste. Fairly average all around.

Bottle (missed it on tap). Pours with a opaque orange body and a small off-white head. Aroma is intense with nut mega and cinnamon! Some brown sugar, mace, clove and molasses. Kind of an odd onion finish to the aroma. Flavor is of nutmeg (TONS of it), cumin (odd...sort of a sweaty flavor), light cinnamon, molasses. Really heavy on the nutmeg and light on the other spices. Nearly adds a powderiness to the beer. Prickly bubbles. A pretty decent pumpkin beer. Not great, but good.
