Bottle @ ZZT X shared by me. Opaque pitch black color, brown colored head. Aroma malts, roasted malts, alcohol, bourbon. Taste malts, bourbon, liquor, pretty alcoholic, roasted malts, a hint of maple syrup, bitter, cognac. Roasty bitter alcoholic finish. A little too aggressive but very very nice. Heavy, medium to full bodied, medium carbonation. Heavy but nice. Intense.

On tap at Harry’s Hofbrau. The nose is slightly off, but vanilla and booze, along with moderate chocolate are present. Color is black with a brown head. Taste is baker’s chocolate with moderate pumpkin spice - a lower amount of spice than expected.

Hazy gold - amber beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and smooth with decent fine carbonation. Airy and creamy sweet malts. Nice citric hops, little hop sting too. Rich orange here with some grapefruit and citric peel. Mild floralness. Smooth semi dry finish. Very drinkable DIPA.

Thanks Heidi for the bottle.
Being an imperial porter, I poured this into a snifter.
The appearance was a black color with a finger’s worth of a slim white to off white slightly foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Light speckled lacing roamed around the glass.
The smell had some sweet to roasty cocoa to allow a nice rich yet bitter roasted coffee to try to make a stance but ends up fading just a bit.
The taste was mainly a good balance of sweet to roasty with the cocoa and coffee combining nicely.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a sessionability rearing its head slightly but I’m finding more of a sipping aspect from it at times. Carbonation seemed good for the style and for me.
Overall, nice imperial porter I could down again.

Bomber from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours hazy dishwater gold with a foamy white head. Aromas of light fruits, grass and herb. Med body, or nearly. Flavor is earthy, grassy, lightly fruity. Finishes well towards dry, and intensely spicy/earthy. Gotta love it!

This brew is a hazy orange-amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of hops, citrus and malt. Light to medium-body with flavors of floral hops, citrus and roast malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hops aftertaste. Decent overall.
