asdash (4), Chicago, Illinois, USA does not count Jun 6, 2009 Can definitely taste the sugar but it’s not overly sweet. Alcohol could be better disguised. Head is a little thin. But it is definitely a BIG beer,with lots of fruit and caramel, and the price is right. I will definitely be stocking up on these. shawnm213 (884), South Bend, Indiana, USA Jun 6, 2009 pours a clear copper witha small tan head. notes of chocolate, caramel, some booze, candied sugar. creamy, very smooth mouthfeel. alagnak (296), Littleton, Colorado, USA Jun 4, 2009 On tap @ Avery taproom. Sweet, boozy aroma. Not sure the official definition of ’cloying’, but I think it fits this one. really Sweet and vanilla-y, with a pronounced alcohol burn. One of my least favorite brews from one of my favorite breweries. Bukowski9 (89), Piqua, Ohio, USA Jun 2, 2009 Bottle pour,amber color with a good white head.Aroma was fruits and malt with some spicy undertones.Taste was sweet with nothing else really discernible.Not bad but too sweet for me. Defreni (994), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 1, 2009 Flaske: Mørkeorange uklar. Ingen karbonering. Bid fra alkoholen og en meget lille smule humle. Krydret smag, ikke så fantastisk NomDeBeer (398), Maryland, USA May 18, 2009 Pours a clear copper color with no head. Aroma is alcohol, sugar, and cloves. Taste is dominated by sugar and caramel - in fact, I don’t think I’ve ever had a beer with such a pure caramel flavor. Alcohol is noticeable, but not annoyingly so. Prickly carbonation. Decent beer - it’s certainly drinkable, but not really outstanding or memorable, just big and very sweet. bsierra (213), Vista, California, USA May 14, 2009 Bomber on sale at my local liquor store. Aroma of grapes, caramel, vinous and sweet. A nice combination of dried fruit, alcohol and caramel. Amber-copper in color, very clear and a medium white head. Warming alcohol, sweet caramel with a burnt, toasted-wheat flavor. Some Belgian yeast character in the form of esters and a strong alcohol bite in the finish. Reminds me of a really, really strong dunkelweizen. Medium-light body, slightly creamy texture. Just a bit too boozy for my personal taste.
DerBiermeister (504), Birmingham, Alabama, USA May 13, 2009 The aroma on this is sweet and cloying, as is its mouthfeel. Its palate is complex enough and full-bodied, but there are lingerings of bitter alcohol that do not make for the most pleasantness imaginable. On the whole, pretty solid brew, though also quite powerful and (perhaps overly) sweet.
