Bomber from BevMo. Hazy medium golden in color. Foamy white head. Citric hoppy nose. Some hoppiness up front. Fairly high carbonation give a little tininess. Decent hops with a little bit of a mineral water quality. Not bad.

Sep 25, 2008 Bomber poured a cloudy gold with fishys and a small lingering off white head. Aromas of straw, fruittiness, earthiness and light pine. Palate was medium bodied and smooth with a dry finish. Flavors of straw, spice, light carmel and a hint of earthiness with a smooth dry lingering bitter finish.

does not count  Sep 6, 2008 A hazy golden color with a white foam top grabs your eyes and invites you to take in the earthy hay grass aroma into your nose.
The slight bitter flavor fills in the medium body. Yet, the bit too lively fizz leaves you with a tickle bright ending.

Aug 27, 2008 This hazy golden ale poured with a decent off-white head and a floral aroma. The flavor is creamy caramel malt with some serious hopping. However, the balance is off, resulting in too much bitterness and not enough body.

Aug 24, 2008 Bomber from BevMo. Pours hazy gold with a frothy white head. Aromas of floral hop over pale malt sweetness. Near medium body with finely creamy carbonation. It’s hoppy - think I got a fresh one. It’s bitter. It’s floral and a bit citrus. Finish is clean and hoppy. And bitter. Maybe BevMo should keep them in the cooler.

Aug 24, 2008 Aroma is somewhat oxidized stale earthy hops. Some odd sweetness as well. Poured a nice shade of gold with a great big head. Tastes plasticy sweet initially followed by some odd yeasty esters. Earthy leafy hops are there in the finish, but are just off. Carbonation is pretty big. The bottle I had was really just plain unpleasant.
