Commercial Description:
This dangerously drinkable garnet beauty is a hop lover's delight. The intense dry-hop nose and the alcohol content are perfectly balanced for a caramel candy-like malt finish. This is a serious beer for serious beer afficionados and it only gets better with age. Cellarable for 3 years.

Bomber bought a few months ago. Aroma still has a fair amount of citrus (lemon & orange) hops; sweet malt. Quite a bit of bitterness; semi-sweet malt; a little bit of warming alcohol. Mouthfeel is smooth and light on carbonation, but is a little thin and sticky.

The body is a caramel hue with a creamy head. The aroma is a malty hops. Flavor is malty but with this pleasantly dry and bitter. Nice creamy mouthfeel.

Pours a nice, dark reddish amber with a fine off-white head that leaves some nice lacing. Aroma is of sweet prune malts with some fat citrusy hops. The flavor is similar - nice and sweet and first, but finishes bitter and relatively clean. The mouthfeel is nice and creamy. Really nice brew overall, one of the better barley wines I’ve tasted.

750 ml bottle into snifter. Pours amber red with about three fingers of off white, slowly dissipating head. Strong hops and prune odor. Interesting taste- a lot softer than I had expected. Starts off with a soft sweetness from caramel malts, with a hint of molasses. Pretty interesting barley wine.

Pour a cloudy orangish amber color. The nose haa sweet scent, hops are noticable, roasted malt, hints of dark fruit. The taste is a bitt hoppy, with molases, and roasted malt. A very thick body. Overall the beer is balances out and is very good.

Bottle. Cloudy orange, no head- sweet aroma, hint of licorice. Not as overwhelmingly hoppy as the SN Bigfoot I had last time. Much sweeter up front, almost a candy-like sweetness. Definite bitterness in the finish. This is smoother than the Bigfoot, very enjoyable.

Good but not great. Sometimes you just want beer, not candy. A little too bitter and sweet and skunky for my taste. In a way kind of tastes like how unsmoked high-grade weed smells, which you’d think would be delicious, but just not in this form.

Bomber, pours a deep copper/redish/orange with a small off-white head. Laces well as you drink. Nose is heavy on the hopes and dark fruits. Bitter strong attack that is followed by a deep dark hoppy/fruity finish. Very nice and complex beer.
