Bomber (080807) from Bottle Barn. Aroma of wheat and light lemon. Hazy bright golden color with a white head that didn’t last. Thin to medium bodied with mild carbonation. The flavor starts a little bit citrus, has some pale/bready malt, and passes to something paperish. That passes as the citrus comes back with some bitter. Finish is sort of citrus and bitter. Very unusual, but it smells and tastes pretty good.

Deep opaque brown body, thick brown head. Rich chocolate and roasted malt aroma with ample sweetness. The body exhibits a woody dryness, but lacks the astringent acidity that plagues the thinnest stouts. Dark chocolate notes with modest sweetness are prominent. Rich body features a pleasant lingering cocoa aftertaste. Nice, robust stout.

Bomber. Nice aroma of malt and ripe fruit. Amber color with a white head that ringed. A bit thin in body, with very mild carbonation. The flavor is caramel malt with a fruity accompaniment. The finish is relatively dry, and there is a decent amount of bitter. Could be a malty IPA.

Aroma of floral hop with a bit of citrus, backed by a little caramel. Hazy ripe apricot color with a white head that quickly filmed. Starts with floral hop and ripe stone fruit flavors, maybe a citrus bite. Medium body that thins a bit as the moderate carbonation leaves. Overall it’s very good, but there is a earthiness, a dark fruit aspect, that’s unusual. The finish is a bit complex. Really interesting, and quite tasty after one’s initial prejudices are set aside. After awhile I wonder whether there is a tobacco note in there.

Bottle: Dark copper color with a small white head. Nose of fruit with a dry, wheaty kick. Tastes better than the nose with dry wheat, floral bitters, earth tones, and some fruity sweetness. Not too bad. Thanks Buckdich for sharing.

Bottle: Dusty orange pour with a smaller white head. Nose is floral hops and light citrus, some caramel. Taste is kind of a raw hoppy blend. The floral and the citrus presence is there, but niether really stands out. Thanks BuckDich for sharing.

Bottle: Pale yellow pour with a massive white head. Nose is musty and malty, a bit earthy. Tastes initially of apple, into a malty backbone and very little hops. Mild and uninspiring. Thanks Jordan.

Cloudy amber,lasting beige head.Peachy grapefruit nose.Lots of carmel malt in the palate mild to medium hops.

Thanks to droopy49 for sending this one! The pour produces a clear gold body that supports a huge, creamy off-white head. Fruity aroma with light, flowery hops. Moderately bitter, with just enough underlying malt to support this one nicely. Some spicyness suggestive of cinnamon toast. It looks like my rating is going against teh grain here. Maybe my bottle went good?
