Jul 21, 2008 22 Oz. Bomber from Wine Seller in Alpharetta.
Good stuff as usual from Avery. It has a year or more of bottle age in my refrigerator. It’s become nice and murky, brownish with as strong aroma of wheat and bread, dominated by malt but nicely balanced by careful use of hops. Love it.... too bad it’s gone.... one to fourteen and fifteen
Snojerk321 (952), San Diego, California, USA
Jul 4, 2008 22oz bottle. Pours a dark murky brown with a fizzy beige dome. Toasted malt, dark fruits and coffee dominate the nose while the finish is slightly bitter and tingles the palate.
