3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20

3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bomber from Belmont Station. Pours hazy orange gold with a transient white head. Aroma is mild citrus over possible barnyard - gotta struggle for any hint. Med body. First impression is lots of sweet fruit. It’s kind of thickly fruity. Sour just is not in it. A little earthy, a hint of barnyard. Given the mouthfeel I’d be happy to label this an imperial saison. It’s an ok beer. I think I can even detect the indicated pineapple. But the "funky, sour edge"? Equate this as the Bud Light version of that. It is dryish. But not extremely so. It is so sad, but I put it down the drain to get into a Berryessa Brewery growler. Sigh!
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Poured a clear yellow color with an average frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy earthy sour fruit aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sour & sweet flavor with a medium sweet & sour finish of moderate duration. This is a soft beer for style.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle... Murky golden ale with a small, creamy, white head. Decent retention. The nose is so restrained, it’s a tough one to figure out, but I finally pick up some lemon and bready yeast. Medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Sweet, biscuity flavor. Finishes bittersweet - way more sweet than bitter. I don’t like this one much and the Lost Abbey version (Mo Betta Bretta) isn’t much better. I scored that one a 2.8.
4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Cloudy yellow color, small white head, lacy lacing. Aroma of musty lemondrops and orange peel. Taste is dusty lemons and feet. Nice.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
22oz bottle. Hazy straw color with a smaller sized head. Aromas of some brett, rotted citrus rinds, and some fruitiness. Tastes of citrus, brett, some fruits.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bomber poured a clear gold with a lasting off white head. Aromas of straw, barnyard funk, dirty feet and light citrus. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth with a dy finish. Flavors of bread, barnyard funk and a hint of citrus with a smooth dry lingering funky finish.
