Bottle shared by Kyle, thanks! Poured a clear deep amber with a muted yellow head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was strong wheat with a hint of pine. Flavor was similarly strong one note wheat with just a hint of pine. Nice and smooth, almost syrupy. Would have enjoyed a bit more complexity here.

Bomber pours brilliantly clear copper with off white head. The aroma is light and fruity and just as much fusel like notes as anything else. The taste is pretty sweet with malty and fruitiness coming from plums, cherries and raisins with mild to somehow harsh booziness around the edges. Pretty nice albeit young brew. I think I need to age some.

Copper color, nice foamy head. Medium carbonation. Bready caramel nose, a little tart with a vague tropical fruitiness. Smooth mouthfeel with a nice sweetness up front, fades into a mild finish, lightly warming, lightly bitter, a little acrid. A bit heavy, but if your looking for that, you got it. Not crazy about it.

Pour is a clear gold with a small white head. Aroma is is some caramel malt with a bit of dark fruit and alcohol. Flavor is dry biscuit malts with a bit more of the caramel malts toward the end. Alcohol is better hidden in the flavor than the aroma. Not the best of this style that i’ve had but it has enough to make it enjoyable.

tap @ OTH pours clear light amber, thin white head. Aroma, berry nose, caramel malts, sweet aromas with a light lingering bitterness. Flavors, grainy and wheat, chocolate malts with touch of toffee and caramel. Get some bitter grape, warming palate, some hint of vanilla>? dark fruits, molasses/burnt sugar, roasted barley.

Bomber - unlike most other wheat wines I have tried, that taste more like amped up hefeweizens with a slightly different malt bill, this is more like a "regular" barleywine - completely clear, light red/copper pour - fairly lively carbonation for something with such an apparently high abv - highly estery nose, with some notes of toffee and toasted grains - creamy mouthfeel, medium to full body - dry, crackery, toasty wheat malt persists throughout the flavor, but halfway through it is joined by some sticky caramel flavors and a decent dose of bright fruitiness (cherry, strawberry) - some hops arrive late to compliment the lingering toasted grains - fairly apparent alcohol in the finish - needs a little more depth to cover this up - still, a fairly understated wheat wine.
