Can, from Trader Joe's. Pours faintly cloudy dark yellow with large foamy off-white head, faintly resinous citrus peel aroma, adequate carbonation, mildly bitter, light citrus peel taste, thin watery body, medium finish. Watery and poor in flavor.

Bomber from Trader Joe's in Davis, CA. Pours very dark brown/black with a beige/tan head. Indeed the aroma suggests a chocolate doughnut of the finer kind - like Entemann's. Not that those are the best ever, just among the best that come in boxes to the grocery store. Pretty full in body. The chocolate flavor is excellent - much like nice donut icing. There's a trace of heat. It is not at all dry, but not sticky. Surprising drink.

Bottle. Blackish beer with a light brown head. Chocolate and cream aroma. Milk chocolate and cream flavor with light roast. Medium bodied. Milk chocolate and cream linger with light roast.

$3.99 for a bomber bottle at Trader Joe’s. Well, kind of a chocolate cake smell. And a chocolate frosting smell, too, as in extra sugar. Starts to smell like too much sweetener. Black stout color under a thick, tan foamy head. This… kind of doesn’t agree with me. I’m getting almond extract first thing off the bat. Then vanilla, then chocolate. I guess I should have heeded the warning of a beer that labels itself a “pastry stout”. Alcohol gets a little strong, which helps mitigate the overdone added flavors. But there’s just too much “pastry,” not enough “stout.” Still, this gets in as my first beer of 2020.

Canned 03/15/2019. Murky. Pine, resin, some bitterness, a bit alcoholic. Perhaps not fresh anymore.

Can, thanks for sharing! Pours a hazy yellow orange with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has earthy dank citrus with a touch of earthy grass underlying. Flavor has earthy and dank citrus with a bit of grass backing.
