Description
Mission Brewery was originally established in 1913, but like most breweries of the time, it went out of business during the first year of Prohibition. In 2007, Dan Selis, an avid homebrewer, re-established the brand and has built it into one of the top craft breweries in San Diego County.

Bomber from Ledger’s. Pours amber with a big, bubbly off-white head. Aroma is floral and resin; body is medium and carbonation is frothy/creamy. Flavor is malt, pretty well balanced with floral, fruit and resin hop. It’s a very tasty brew. Rather mouthsmacking. Finishes not quite dry, but that’s not bad. In fact it seems very, very good.
