Poured a very deep brown color with a small tan head. The aroma was smoky, roasty and chocolatey. there were some light yeasty and citrus notes. The flavor was roasty and light with some citrus notes. It seems to have wheat in it. Some dark chocolate notes in the flavor as well. Light to medium body.

Jun 8, 2008 Bomber. Pours a nice deep dark woody brown with some ruby highlights, and a light tannish head and some lace. Aroma is nutty with some chocoalte, good earthy herbal and phenolic aromas with some light butterscotch blending wiht the nuts and toasted bread. Good bready doughy flavor with some light dirt, baked bready maltiness, some hints of rum and high alcohol as it warms, light nutty chocolate and more burnt toast with a phenolic and light hoppy bitterness in the end.

Mar 30, 2008 22 oz bomber shared at Cornboys Barleywine blind. Pours an average density solid black with a thin beige foamy head. Interesting aroma with notes of yeast, roastiness, coffee, dark fruit and milk. Thin bodied with light carbonation. Doughy flavor with notes of coffee, chocolate, and vinegar. This really isn’t my favorite style although I have tried a few. I guess it’s alright if you like this sort of thing.

Feb 17, 2008 22oz Bomber via trade, with someone can’t recall who, price tag said Pastaworks. Pours black with a light brown head. Looks like an impy stout. The nose is very spicy and quire complex. Taste is sweet, spicy, herbal, and tart, a pretty unique beer if you ask me, from apperance, taste and the whole big mess of flavors. Interesting to say the least.
