Bombastic Brewing
Contract Brewer
in Hayden,
Idaho,
United States 🇺🇸
Associated Venue: Bombastic Brewing
Established in 2016
Bombastic Brewing began in 2016. Inspired by the scale of Sierra Nevada, the “gypsy” model of Mikkeller, the business model of early Sam Adams, and the opportunity to make a positive impact in the world through craft beer, Russell Mann sold his retail beer business and set out to create an interesting craft brewery, built in a different model: Partner Brewing.
He took on two co-founders, and being thwarted from Partner Brewing by Johnny Law, Bombastic pivoted and started brewing on a 30, then 50 gallon system in a garage-style facility by the airport. Bombastic would roll open the big garage doors every Saturday to welcome the brave craft beer enthusiasts who showed up and had a great time, buying out every release.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear darkly ruddy mahogany with a persistent creamy tan head. Aroma of nice caramel. Arguably full bodied. Not dry but not excessively sweet. Toffee for malt. A little heat for bitter. Some non-pine resin, some raisin/fig, some pear, some pale stone fruits. Surprisingly complex for me. Excellent flavor.

Tavour can: pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is molasses chocolate and orange. Tastes like an orange chocolate bar, but I like this more because alcohol. Fine for what it is.

Dark brown, inky pour, no head. Toasty, little coffee, touch of maple syrup. Thick, low carbo, lots of chocolate. Mellow maple and vanilla. Rich but simple, still solid.

16 oz can. Aroma is bready, corny. Pours lightly hazy golden with a quickly collapsing off-white head. Taste has light to moderate malt sweetness backed by mild hoppy bitterness.
