Oct 7, 2006 Bottle. Deep mahogany. Small rapidly vanishing tan head. Nose is dark malts, light chocolate and pumpernickel bread. Soft banana and a touch of alcohol. Taste is bready and malty with sweet notes, chocolate, soft banana, light bubblegum notes and alcohol. Body is light-medium, mild carbonation and lots of alcohol warmth. Finishes with lots of chocolate, burnt dark malts, light dark fruit flavors, alcohol and candy notes. Not bad but a little hot right now.

Jul 2, 2009 Strong vinous aroma.
Lots of sweetness. No wheat character, lots of sweet malt, some sourness in the finish. Oaky dryness, some vanilla and other spices.

Mar 25, 2007 Ft. Myers, Fl. - Total Wines, 22 oz bomber. Dark amber pour, soft khaki head - leaves slight bubbly lacing. Exellent aroma of caramel, cotton candy, and some sweet smoked meat. Flavor is sweet, yet full-bodied. Caramel, toffee, milk chocolate - it’s all in there and blended together well. Some Christmas spices make their way into the back end. Very tasty. Mouthfeel is thick enough and the high abv is hidden well.

Jun 19, 2006 22 oz bottle. Clear brown color, orange around the edges. Tan head. Smells of spruce trees, cloves, and soy sauce. Roasted malt flavor with plenty of alcohol and esters lingering in the background. Bitter grainy finish with a warm splash of alcohol.

Oct 28, 2007 Bottled. I’m always quite hesitant with Avery brews. Some are absolutely fantastic, but others are quite disappointing (though not bad). So I did not expect a lot from this one, but it turns out to be very nice. Hazy redbrown color, medium off-white head. Aroma of chocolat, slight malty, slight yeasty. Strong malty taste, milk chocolat, caramel. Smooth and silky bod mouthfeel. Very nice.

Mar 10, 2008 Bomber I found in the back of my cellar when looking for something that also has gold foil. So I thought why not pop this seemed to be as good of a time as any. Shared with my Girlfriend Cyn, this is pretty much only the 2nd big beer of the night. Appaently I bought this at South bay for 6 bucks a ways back. Pours blackish brown witha 1 finger tan head. Looks like a dopplebock, not a weizenbock to me. Nose is sweet and chocolaty. Taste mirrors the nose, nice, choco and sweet and rich. A very nice dopplebock, not a weizenbock in any way shape or form.

Apr 12, 2007 Long lasting head. Rings of foam lacing left around the glass. Very dark brown lets very little direct light through. Strong malt aroma with some yeast. As it warms some intriguing brown sugar scents come through. Thick malty body. Sweet malty flavour. Some yeast and alcohol notes. Thick combination of flavours: chocolate, licorice, toffee and brown sugar.
