Jul 18, 2008 Bomber. Pours a non-transparent black with 2 finger tan head and spotty lacing. Nose is chocolate and roasted malts. Taste is coffee, dark chocolate, cocoa, roasted, smoky malt and molasses with a biting hop finish that lingers on the tongue for awhile. Smooth, creamy mouth feel. Very good – nice surprise. Thanks Matt Maples for substituting this in my order - good choice!

Jul 12, 2008 This was a really great beer. Poured black as hell with a dark brown/reddish head. I smell chocolate, toffee, cane syrup and molasses. Thick and rich on the palate...great roastiness and really good chocolate on the tongue. This one was a winner. Very, very nice!

Jul 4, 2008 22oz. Dark, nearly black, pour with a creamy tan head. Coffee and dutch cocoa aroma, hops, smoky malt, roasty. Flavor is balanced, long bitter finish. Coffee and cocoa again. Smooth, but a tad watery, leaves an oily film. Decent beer.

Jun 25, 2008 Bomber, I think a newer one via trade, and shared with my GF Cyn. Pours black with a 1 finger tan head. Nose is sweet and rich with lots of nice maltyness. Taste is sweet chocolaty and overall pretty damn nice. Nice brew.

Jun 12, 2008 Coffee, chocolate, and serious citrus hops. Opaque black, great lacing like all the Elysian drafts. Not quite a Storm King or an Expedition, but just fine.
