Pours cloudy straw yellow with big white head. Aromas of corriander and lavender. Flavors of corriander, clove bread and lemon. Has a touch of spiciness. Medium body with fizzy carbonation. Something different and interesting to try.

Light lemon and nutmeg in the aroma. lightly hazy yellow color with lots of carbonation and a large white head. Flowery taste in the beginning fading to a light malt finish.

22 oz bottle from Wine King in Wall. Pours a thin hazy light straw color with a large but quickly receding bubbly fizzy head. The thin body combined with hazy pale straw color makes this one look like a cross between dish water and stale beer. Aroma starts off with a combination of wet hay, earth and lemon juice. As the aroma develops spices begin to emerge, anise and mint over some grains.Palate is overly forced carbonation on top a watery body and leaves no aftertaste, which in this case is probably a good thing. Flavor is really lacking especially after all those....ahem...."interesting" aromas. What there is to taste is some weak boring cereal grains and a slight lemon aftertaste. I wasn’t expecting much from this beer but definitely more then this.

Bomber: Interesting beer. It pours a hazy, almost cloudy yellow body with a bubbly head. The aroma is kind of like spicy Christmas cookie dough spiked with gin and imbued with dirty pine needles. It’s "lager-ness" is almost lost under the heavy spicing - add anise, mint, and clove to the mix - and it develops an aspirin-like bitterness at the midpoint that lingers into the dry finish. Interesting.

A 22 oz bottle with a cool label. the beer pours a slighty cloudy gold with a monster white crisp head. The smell is malt with some spices that i cant place. The taste is smooth with a nice hops and mint flavor. Good carbonation.

22oz bottle - Pours hazy light yellow with a big white head. It smells of spice and a touch of citrus. The flavor is heavily spiced with maybe nutmeg and clove among other spices. There’s also some orange zest in there. The light malt flavors are kind of buried under all that spice. The palate is light and bubbly. it’s certainly different and isn’t bad though I wish the beer under all that spice was more assertive.
