Bottle courtesy of BeerandBlues2, thanks! Hazy amber color, small off white head. Aroma of raw cookie dough. Taste is bunt butterscotch. OK.

On tap. Pours with a bronze (not really brown by any stretch) body with a small off-white head. Aromas are off. Manure, spearmint, banana esters. Messy. Flavors are not quite as messy. Molasses and a huge amount of esters. Light chocolate. Medium bubbles. A messy beer overall.

Bomber from Hi Time. Pours rather mahogany with a slight creamy beige head. Aroma is nutty and malty. Med body. Seems very nutty. And after that banana definitely popped up. This is coming on like a dark hefe, except it doesn’t have much, if any, spice, and is less watery. This is a good, malty, bananany (sic) ale that drinks very nice. I might imagine a sour note, but I don’t think so. Apparently I have a very good bottle.

Bottle from Hi Time.Pours a light orange tinged gold with a fizzy transient white head. Aroma is grass over bready malt. It is bready, seems a tad salty, and it’s not strongly hopped. Drinks ok, and it’s better than many. Looking forward to see whether their next creation is more interesting.

Draft. An unclear golden beer with an orangey head. The aroma has notes of malt as well as lighter notes of lemon and berries. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and wheat, as well as lighter notes of banana and over ripe fruits.

This brew pours brown with a medium thin off-white head that burns away steadily. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Tart fruity aroma with a slight malt note. Medium body with flavors of sour fruit, brown sugar and malt. The finish is fruity with a sour aftertaste. As it turns out this beer is supposed to be a sour brown but it doesn’t work regardless. Below average.

Bottle pours dark brown, thin light brown head. Aroma is cocoa and roasted malts. Flavor follows suit but is fruity with dark cherry notes. Cocoa is bitter and noticeable in the finish.
