22 ounce bottle into tulip. Pours crystal clear reddish brown color with a dense 1 finger khaki head with very nice retention that reduces to a ring of lacing. Small amount of lacing sticks to the glass as well. Aromas of huge caramel, toffee, molasses, cherry, and some breadiness. Very surprisingly nice aromas with good strength. Taste of big caramel, toffee, spices, cherry, and breadiness. A very small bit of tartness and funkiness was noticed as well. Lingering sweet notes of caramel, fruitiness, and light spices that last for a bit after the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied, with a fairly creamy mouthfeel. Excellently masked alcohol for 8%, with only a very slight warming after the finish noticed. I am not sure if they put Brett in this or not; but this is definitely excellent with highly complex flavors, and great drinkability for the level of alcohol.

Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured thick, black and a touch oily with a medium sized creamy dark brown head that left some lacing. The aroma was dryish, roasty, woody and bitter. The flavor was very roasty and wood with a strong bitter coffee presence and undertones of toasty, nut, mint and floral hops. The finish was long, dry, bitter and roasty with lingering coffee. Thick and creamy body. Solid.

Bomber from Charleston Beer Exchange. Pours ruddy amber with a creamy off-white head. Aromas of mild roast malt and some citrusy hop. Med body. Flavor is floral/citrus over some slightly harsh roast caramel. Doesn’t seem all that bitter, but it’s not Imperial. It drinks pretty good.

Bomber. Pours a deep reddish color with a thin beige head and aromas of apple juice concentrate and herbal hops. Caramel and apple juice malts and fruit flavors dominate the early palate and yield to a bit of an herbal hop medley before sliding back into an apple juice sweetness in the tail-end. This is pretty solid.

Bomber. So this sat in the fridge for a couple of weeks while I was away on Christmas vacation and still hasn’t been added to the database. Surprised, I added it and settled in for a winter stout session. Pour is dark and thick with a little bit of head and sweet and dark aromas. Chocolate and cream dominate, with a little bit of a burnt edge to them. Flavor is maybe a little sweeter than I would normally care for, but it’s decent. Lots of chocolate and cream throughout with a little bit of an autumn leaves and wet soil edge to the whole thing. It is fairly viscous and leaves a thick and just slightly warm sweetness across the palate. This is pretty darn good stuff and it is good to see the new guy in town continuing to churn out decent brew.

bottle - Pours mostly clear amber with a huge foamy head. It smells mainly of caramel malt and sure enough tastes of caramel malt. It’s a bit toasty and is very sweet. This medium bodied brew has a little hops in the finish but the sweetness doesn’t really abate. Drinkable if average brew.

Melted caramel color with an off-white, tall, head. Citrus and pine hops are covered by a powerful caramel, sweet malt aroma. Grapefruit, pine, citrus notes in the flavor with a strong caramel malt presence. Too malty sweet for my liking in an IPA but it’s not a bad beer by any stretch.

Pour is a dark orange with a small white head. Aroma is citrus hops with some sweet malts. Flavor is the same some hops and sweet malt hit you but nothing to put his over the top. Average at best but still worthy of a try

Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a red-orange color with a large foamy orange-white head that lingered and produced good lacing. The aroma was lightly sweet and had a moderate presence of grapefruit, pine and caramel. The flavor was sour, tangy and moderately bitter with moderate notes of grapefruit and floral hops. The finish was long, dry and flowery. Medium body. Decent.
