Bomber. Pours pitch black with a thin brown head. The nose is cocoa, roasted malt, faint green olives and bourbon. The taste is chocolate, sour chocolate milk, wood and light bourbon. Medium bodied. The pieces are there but the sourness is distracting.

Bottle thanks to Daknole. Black medium body with scant tan head. Aroma has some alcohol, ink, and oddly some citrus. Thin, soft mouthfeel with low carbonation. Inky flavors, not roasty. Very smooth. Not a huge flavor profile but something really nice about it.

Dark brown. Thin head. Rich, soy saucey aroma with light fruitiness - a juicy orange component. Juicy, with blackberry, chocolate and coffee. This is complex and delicious. It has the flavour profile of top of the line espresso - one of those Intelligentia single estates. Wood, and light vanilla late. Alchemic.

Sampled on DLD 09. Literally minutes before i got to get my beer. Aroma is a bit sour and infected, with lots of bourbon. Flavor is nicely bourbony, some chocolate, some vanilla. Pretty good.

CPLYFO 09. Bomber. Pours a hazy deep murky brown almost black with a fizzy head that mostly fades. Smooth chocolate aroma with ok roast and slightly old coffee, with a good bourbon barrel character which was surprising- not too hot but definitely stands out. More bourbon flavor- smooth brown sugar, toffee, and caramel good vanilla oak, and nice dark chocolate and roast with a burnt nuttiness which was nice. Smooth finish. This was surprisingly quite good from BBC.

Bottle courtesy of indiapaleale. Pours a murky, used engine oil brown to black color with a thin tan head. Aroma is boozy with candy sugar, bourbon, vanilla, oak, chocolate, and maple syrup. Flavor is rich and malty with notes of chocolate, ripe dark fruit, vanilla, oak, bourbon, some hints of molasses and toffee. Generally medium to full body with a pleasing rich, malty finish.
