bomber - pours amber with tan head. Nose is caramel and berry. Flavor adds wood/smoke and, yes, a malty backbone. Hides the ABV well, but this tastes like unripe fruit. Makes me think of the poor wildlife that must subsist on green berries just to survive the unseasonably long winter: a beautiful story but not to be repeated often.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 ccex (826) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAY 26, 2013
22 oz. bottle pours an almost clear copper color with small off-white head which leaves a fair amount of lacing. Aroma is full of dark berries, wood, caramel, and some light spices. Body is medium to full with light carbonation. Taste is on the sweet side, but with full and unusual flavors. Quite unusual. I wouldn’t mind trying this one again.

22 oz bottle. Pours a somewhat hazy orange to copper with an off-white head. Aroma starts with a whiff of honey, then some tartness, berries, minerals. Juniper berry and toasty malt flavors, honey, some bitterness and light tartness. Honestly, I just really can’t get into these flavors.

Dark Amber color. Good frothy head and lacing. Juniper berry taste is strong. Not as well balanced as I would hope.

Brilliant red color with foamy tan head. Spiced fruit aroma. Interesting taste. Herbal flavors are the first thing I notice. Earthy, fruity, spicy and floral. Notes of cherry, strawberry and honey too. This tastes a bit odd to me. It’s ok, just not my cup of tea.
