22oz bomber. Opaque brown-black with a small beige head. Roasty, chocolate raspberry taste, some mellow creamy coffee flavors well. Medium bodied and very drinkable. Sweet and smooth, with a touch vanilla. An excellent concoction, really enjoyable, the alcohol is really downplayed, not even noticeable.

Bottle from Liquor Max in Loveland, CO. Pours black with a foamy tan head. Aromas of chocolate and tar. Full bodied with creamy carbonation. Flavor is chocolate, burned malt and I think more than a hint of tar. Finishes slightly harsh. Which isn’t a bad thing.

12oz bottle. Deep burgundy-brown, soapy, oily head, off white. Deep malty aroma. Honey brown is forbidden territory, thanks to Dundee, but this beer snatches the style right back. Quite excellent, the honey complements the dark malt tones perfectly. Medium to full bodied, displays an extra clean mouthfeel. Really exceeded my expectations, extremely well executed.

22 oz bottle purchased at The Wine and Cheese Place is St Louis, Missouri. Pour is hazed cloudy yellow white golden, with tons of foamy white head. More or less exploding out of the bottle. Aroma is catty initially, then quickly turns to a nice herbal grass as it opens up. Taste is dry, herbal, with a nice spice and grain wheat. Palate is medium bodied, dry in the finish.

Bomber from ericandersnavy. Thanks man. Pours very black, though the stream from the bottle had ruby aspects. 3-finger foamy tan head. Aroma is very strong coffee, with a hint of chocolate. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is very smooth coffee, with a hint of smoke, and I’d say definite dark chocolate. Finishes coffee bitter. So where’s the Big Shot Latte? Good stuff!
