3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
This beer is bottled great looks great. Beer tasted better then it looks in bottle. Pour is dark brown with a med tan head. Aroma is hoppy and malty. Full flavored and great hop profile with a smokey finish. Gains greatly by warming up gives more full hop flavors.

Magnum Bomber: excessive head mahogany with a slight haze. Excellent lacing. Burnt brown sugar nose. Malt forward with a nice bitter finish. A bottle built for sharing! ~m

Bottled in Moab at the brewery! Pours a cloudy dark brown with a froathy tan head. Not as hoppy as I was expected...lots of carbonation. Nothing to special but good for what it is. I have definitely had better!

750 ml swing top to snifter (shared with jmborggren and others; thanks douglas88). Looks good; a deep brown with foamy beige head and lively carbonation. Smells soloed; bitter hops and malt. Tastes like it smells, only better, with chocolate notes and a nice, silky finish. Fantastic beer!
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
1L bottle. Pours cloudy dark brown with a hint of red. Huge tan head that lasts and lasts. Aroma of caramel, toffee, a little woody, something funky. Taste is super sweet caramel, a bit burnt. I’m not tasting any hops... Not what I’d call a black IPA.

Aroma is a malty coffee roasty with some piney and a little bit of sweet citrus. Pours almost black thick creamy tan head leaves a ton of lacing. Taste is very interesting very thick creamy with some piney resin and maybe some Carmel it does hav e some sweetness that us really good. Leaves in my opinion a very nice aftertaste. Kind of sweet and creamy like an orange cream sicel. Overall this is a good beer that comes in a huge bottle so I am sure to feel the full effects.

Bottle-purchased at the brewery August 2012-pours deep brown hue with a very nice fluffy lite tan head. nose is wierd-lots of woody hops, lite green apples, oak, but mostly wood and hops. the hops here are not all that punchy, could have been a little more robust on the hop profile. flavors exhibit mostly the big oak wood notes along with some piney hops, medicinal character, and lite alcohol heat. This is a very big beer for the ABV however, its not all that well put together. For Utah standards, its pretty good i guess. A VERY expensive beer at $15 a bottle that i wish was better for the money.
