Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is almost like a dreamsicle with a little chocolate and malt. Flavor is chocolate, orange and malt, kind of like and orange tootsie pop. DIfferent beer, but not bad.

Bomber pours a dark brown/black with a large tan head. Aroma of orange soda, chocolate malt, and a slight hop presence. Taste is kinda like a bland tootsie roll with some artificial orange extract with some bitterness on the finish from the hops.

From a 650ml bottle on 13/1/2013 (shared by Butz with thanks). Pours a very dark brown with a small head. Has quite an unusual basement aroma with some fruity (orange) notes. Flavour wise, this is the beer equivalent of a jaffa - you get lots of sweet candied orange and chocolate malt. The texture is quite creamy. A slightly odd but pretty good beer.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Overall, a nice brew. Aroma was thick with candied orange peel, some chocolate, prunes, and a touch of sweetness. Pour was very black with a light khaki head. Flavors follow the aroma: Chocolate, lightly sweet, tons of citrus (orange and tangerine). Nice stuff.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
What an interesting beer... It smelled like those orange-flavored chocolate balls but with a slight earthy background. Is this supposed to be a porter? The taste is dry and fruity with soft oranges, dry cocoa and a pretty mellow finish with roasty malts and chocolate. A tad confusing on the palate but pretty good too.

650ml bottle. Black in colour with an even layer of tan foam. Caramel malt aroma with some chocolate in there as well. Light in the mouth with a smooth mellow aftertaste.
3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Beer with a slight orange or citrus zest. Tastes a little flat or stale, and lacking in flavor. Smells good like a fruity beer should. May be good in small quantities to pair with certain a food, but it is not a drinking beer for me.
