Bomber at Churchkey. My second favorite brew of the Epic launch in DC. Murky brown color, solid off white head with good lacing. Aroma of pure pine resin and Christmas tree. Taste is very bitter from start to finish, with great body. Much more like an IPA than a pale ale, and very pleasantly so.

Bomber at Churchkey, shared, courtesy of Dave from Epic - thank you sir! Cloudy golden brown color, small off white head. Aroma of citrus and summer fruit. Taste is light caramel, citrus, fruit enters late, nice dry finish. Good body. Not sour, not sweet. Unique, and very nice.

Tap at Churchkey. My favorite of the Epic brews launched at CK that night. Cloudy orange color, off white head. Really nice pine aroma with a citrus and floral edge. Taste is not too bitter, but not underwhelming either - it’s just right. Nice brew.

Bomber courtesy of douglas88. Pours orange/copper with off white head. The aroma is spicy with yeast and then moving toward an apricot to apple like fruitiness. The taste begins spicy then it picks up grains, apple, pear and apricot. Interesting stuff and easy drinkn’s too.

Bomber from the Innsbrook Beer Cave in Glen Allen, VA. Pours a hazy peach color with a medium frothy white head. Good head retention and lots of sticky lacing. Aroma of floral and citrus hops with caramel malts. The taste is citrus, floral and citrus hops, again with a caramel backbone. Well balanced. Medium bodied. I’m digging this beer.
