Bomber from Beer Revolution. Pours darkish ruddy amber with a 1 finter creamy beige head. Aromas of very roast malt and citrus. Mostly roast malt. Med body. Flavor is sweetish red roast malt with some tag along citrus. Finishes more bitter than not, cause the malt is a little harsh, and the citrus hop helps. But that sweet malt nose is there everytime. It’s like Imperial Amber - and amber is not my thing. But there’s enough flavor and bitter to put this into the pretty decent range. If you want a really hoppy beer, this isn’t it. If you want a sicky sweet beer, this isn’t it. If you want a beer that’s pretty malty,but not over sweet, this may be it. Drinks damn well.

Bomber from Beer Revolution. Pours black with a creamy tan head. Aroma is milkish chocolate with a hint of coffee. Full bodied. Tho it thins as the carb goes.
