Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours golden amber with a slight beige head. Aroma seems mixed citrus/pine. Light caramel. Med body, nearly. Flavor is sort of mucky caramel with mixed citrus and pine. Maybe even some tropical fruit. Maybe a little floral perfumey. Citrus seems to become the leading suspect. Took some time to adjust to the (to me) confusion, but I’m liking it. Not a harsh NW critter, just a good hoppy ale.

Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours very dark brown with a slight tan head. Aroma is chocolate over treacle. Light treacle. Med + body. Kinda fizzy carb. Flavor is treacle, chocolate, maybe hint of anise, seems to get coffee towards the finish. Fairly smooth. Fills the bill, style wise.

Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours golden amber with a slight white head. Mild citrus aroma. Med body. Flavor is citrus/floral over a very light roasty malt backbone. Thinking this might be a session ale. Nice flavor for such low ABV.

Bottle. Thanks to glkaiser for this one! Bottling date 10/1/13, drank 11/25 or so. Pours clear amber with a medium beige head, creamy with nice lacing. Aroma is citrus and pine - nothing special, but certainly pleasant. Flavor is the same, medium sweet -- on the sweet side of my personal taste, but good nonetheless -- light bitter and a bit dank. Medium body, quite creamy mouthfeel. This is a pretty good beer. I wish I would have drunk it right away after it got to me...

Sample at the Tap House Grill in Seattle. The beer pours a clear pale amber color with a medium white head that diminishes quickly to an outer ring. Partial rings of lacing. Aroma of hops, pine and malt. Medium-bodied with a piney hops character and flavors of toasted malt and fruit. The finish is moderately bitter with a resiny hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Draft at Beveridge. Clear amber color, solid white head, solid lacing. Aroma of grass, scallions, tropical fruit. Taste is fruity and balanced.
