It pours with a dark ruby red to mahogany body that supports a tan head. The aroma offers up earthy malts, thick malt sweetness, dark roasted malts and a mild earthy chili pepper meat note in the background. The taste is thin in body giving up dark roasted malts, a bit of burnt malts and moving into cinnamon and a light chili pepper meat sensation. There’s an earthy malt note hovering around in the background and it fits in nicely with the overall experience.

Deep dark brown coloured body with a lighter brown colour on the edge when held up to a light, with a very fast-dying deep brown head. Aroma of deep spice, roasted malt, alcohol, toffee and the canella is strong. Medium-bodied; Assertive earthy malt flavour with a good robust nuttiness, some chocolate and light coffee notes soon afterwards, all ending with a good sweetness and a hit of the cinnamon. Aftertaste shows a good balance of sweetness and roasty flavours with a lot of spice and even more chocolate and coffee notes on the end. Overall, a fairly nice complex imperial stout with more spices than most and a deep flavour that persists well. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Super Jr. Market in San Diego, California on 07-June-2013 for US$7.49 sampled at home in Washington on 23-June-2013.

Bomber from Bine & Vine. Pours translucent copper with a 4 finger frothy/foamy off-white head. Aroma is spicy pepper over muted roast caramel. Med + body. Flavor matches the aroma - tho the chili is not super hot. Not at all. This beer would likely go with many foods. Finishes spicy and rather dry.

Location: 22 ozbottle from State Line, 5/12/13
Aroma: The aroma has some earthy and fruity hops, with some nice peppery spice
Appearance: It pours a cloudy reddish-orange color with a foamy beige head and fairly heavy lace
Flavor: Well balanced between some light malt sweetness, a mid hop bite, and a peppery finish
Palate: The body is light-medium, it has a pretty solid feel, finishes lights dry and lightly peppery
Overall Impression: This is a solid one. The bitterness isn't quite up to the level of an IPA, but it works well with the somewhat subtle spice. Good, but not amazing. The spice works nicely, but the underlying IPA is only decent.
