Mar 29, 2009 Bomber. Pours a nice deep almost black with a foamy lasting head. Aroma is very herbal, hoppy, green acetaldehyde, toasted malts, burnt acrid charred malts, and light roast. More green apple in the flavor, dry burnt malts, burnt toast, nutty, earth, herbal, lots of fresh hops, and actually not even all that smooth in the end. Im not sure if I have ever had a good bottle of this now that I think of it. BA version is so good, it is weird how the regular version is so much different.

Mar 21, 2009 Well, they didn’t have this winner when we visited State College last summer. No worries, Cpt. Couger was like Captain AMerican in gettingt me one between snowstorms, and sent it as..an extra. This smooth drinker was just what I needed this weekend. Pours black and thick, with good white head. The real think, one sip is a drinkable bitterness, the next a bit of coffee, great malting integrated.
