Bomber drank whilst watching the final BSG episode. Awesome! Frack me. Anyway, pours a deep ruby hue with a small white head. A big fruity nose with some chocolate and light barrel. The flavor combines big sweet berries, molasses and caramel and sweeter rum and heat. A bit warm but flavorful and nice. A decadent treat.

Bottle shared by Max at Blipp’s surprise tasting. Pours black with tan head. Nose and taste of upfront smooth bourbon, vanilla, oak, roast chocolate and roast coffee. A bit too much forward bourbon mutes the coffee. Medium body.

Sample at the Ale Wine & Spirits beer tasting on 06/14/2013: This beer is a hazy golden color with a medium fizzy white head that evaporates steadily to a film. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of grassy hops and malt. Light-bodied and crisp with flavors of herbal hops, toasted malt and a touch of citrus. The finish is mildly bitter with a hoppy aftertaste. Above average overall.

Big thanks to Sledutah, Craig! It pours mahogany with a tan head of foam. The aroma offers up dark roasted malts, molasses and a muted earthy chocolate note. The taste starts rich with molasses and malt sweetness moving into dark roasted malts and a bit of chocolate. This is smooth and rich and picks up a light lactose and tart note here and there. The more I drink of this the more I like it too. Nice!

Can. Pours clear orange with a medium orange-white head that dissipates very slowly and leaves nice lacing. Aroma is citrus, pine, some mango. Flavor is about the same, tastes a little long in the tooth but still drinking quite well actually. Very light sweetness, light bitterness. Medium body, oily mouthfeel. Pleasant beer.
