On tap. Clear copper with a few bubbles around the edge. Mild aroma of toffee, toast and a hint of citrus. Taste is also mild with lightly toasted cereal, orange caramel and a touch of roast. Light-medium body is well balanced and has low carbonation, making it easily drinkable.

Draft @ the brewery. Pours an amber color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity malty weak hoppy aroma. Fruity malty caramel hoppy flavor. Has a fruity malty caramel finish with hoppy hints in the aftertaste.

Orangey reddish pour, minimal head. Sparce lacing. Aroma is sweet and grassy. Flavor is odd, sweet and tart like a granny smith apple and a pear mixed together. .. weird.

Bomber from BevMo. Deep ruby in color. Nose is fairly bready with a light hint of sweetness. Sweet and bready up front. A little roasty with a sweet undertone and a mild hop finish.

sweet grape and wood aroma. Appearance is dark brown/red. Taste is choco burnt grassy hops and sawdust. Palate is dredged in thick grains and choco cara malts. Overall its tasty red choco and yummy woodsy and rich grains

Mahogany pour with a tan head. The malty aroma matches the mildly sweet taste. The body is light with a somewhat thin texture and average carbonation.

The new Manzanita Brewing Company on July 15, 2012. Draft into pint glass. Mahogany, reddish brown color. About one finger of head when I got it. Plenty of white, pillowy, bubbly lacing. Good retention, but not so much on the sides. Smelled toffee, caramel, nutty, roasty and toast. Tasted pretty close to the smell, toffee, caramel and nutty. Very smooth. Medium body. Creamy texture. Average-to-below average carbonation. Smooth, abrupt finish. Good beer overall. Very smooth.

Flat amber/copper pour. Minimal nose. Nutty malts, hint of grassy and citrusy hops and slighlty sweet front pallate. Finishes much drier than it starts.

22 oz bomber..Pour is murky amber with a small white head..Nose is floral, caramel, nuts..Taster is bready, spice, vanilla, toffee..

Draught @ Manzanita. Murky amber. Citrus, malt, caramel, spices. Apple? Sweet, bitter. Weak mouthfeel, watery body, flavor not as strong as it *should* be.
