650ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, reddish brown colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Roasty dark malty aroma with nice coffee beans aroma, a cautious touch of treacle. Taste is moderately sweet dark malty, hints of treacle, excellent coffee note. Not overly complex, very well balanced, coffee flavours have been transferred into aroma and taste without perceptible loss of quality. Probably the best coffee I came across in a beer so far.

Bomber from the Nugget Market in Woodland, CA. Pours orange tinged gold with a slight white head. Aroma seems floral and earthy. Med body or nearly. Flavor is light roast malt, but mostly strong hop. It’s very fresh, earthy, and arguably has some light fruit notes. Very tasty.

Bottle from the Nugget Market in Woodland, CA. Pours gold with a copper tinge and a slight white head. Aroma of slightly roasty malt with some fruity hop. Med body. Flavor pretty much matches aroma. Except something is making me think "leafy green" as an added touch. Gets some citrus. Tasty. Finishes with some malt, but more than enough hop to render it pleasingly bitter. Maybe even grassy bitter. Nice stuff.
