7.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 8
Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours clear darkly copper/brown with a very slight beige head. Aroma of dark roasty malt with hints of chocolate and something suggesting hop. Near full bodied. Flavor is roasty, a little nutty, has some chocolate, and there’s some bitter which could be hop. The malt flavor is pretty dominant, so it’s hard to pick out a hop type. Still, this stuff isn’t all that sugary, and there’s bitter in the finish. Pretty drinkable stuff.

Sample at the brewpub. Pours a clear golden-amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily to an outer ring. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of hops, grapefruit and malt. Medium-bodied with a moderately bitter hops character and notes of citrus and sweet malt. The finish is hoppy with a citrus and pine aftertaste. Decent overall.

Deep dark brown coloured body with a tan head, some lighter glows when held up to a light at the bottom, as well. Light to Medium-bodied; Nice roasty malt flavour with a hint of earthiness and vanilla at first and some caramel later on. Aftertaste shows more of a refined roasted malt flavour with definite oaky and dry qualities and some light sweetness. Overall, a decent and respectable porter, but bordering on the lighter side made for a good drink. I sampled this pint on draught at SeaTown Restaurant in Seattle, Washington on 10-February-2013 for US$6.00.

7.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 7
Rich deep dark brown coloured body with a nice, two centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of alcohol, a bit of earthy hops, some deep caramel and toffee with a grassy and herbal kick at the end. Medium-bodied; Assertive hoppy flavour at first with earth and grass very strong, some pungent alcohol, all with a good and defined toasted malt backbone. Aftertaste shows some nice malt, a good dose of hops (but not overpowering) and a pleasant sweetness, very well balanced. Overall, a nice beer, I’m not sure why it’s rating isn’t higher - this is balanced and still showing a hint of complexity - nice. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Bottleworks in Seattle, Washington on 11-January-2013 for US$5.99 sampled at home in the real Washington on 02-February-2013.

Bomber from LetsPour.com. Pours dark brown with a slight creamy beige head. Aroma of chocolate over some moderately roasted malt. Med body. Flavor is nutty and chocolaty with that standard "brown" malt flavor. It finishes dry and rather bitter.

On tap at The Burgundian Tavern, pours a dark amber / brown with a small beige head. Aroma of holiday spices, citrusy hops and roasted malt, like a spicy black IPA. Flavour is very similar, with the spice more dominant than the black IPA component character. There are some chocolate and candied notes in there as well. Solid stuff.

On tap at Concordia Ale House, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of light floral notes, with some sweet caramel malt underneath. Flavour is sweet with resinous hops and bready caramel malt and a touch of candied sugar. Very enjoyable refresher that doesn't show the ABV at all.
