Jun 5, 2008 Not my favorite of the bunch, tasted a little like bud light. For a micro could have had a little more taste and complexity to it. Visited my girlfriends dad in Mass and came across the Berkshire line of beers and was pretty impressed. Liked the 22oz bottles for the price excellent deal.

May 12, 2008 22 oz bomber served cold in a shaker glass. Pours a pale gold color with a small white head. Nose is grainy with citrus background.
Thin weak body. Flavor is slightly lemony, slightly caramel, slightly hoppy. Everything slightly. A basic brew designed to neither inspire nor offend. Would be a good lawnmower beer. At least it’s inexpensive, $3.50 for a bomber.

Apr 10, 2008 The second of the Berkshire’s beers I’ve tried and I must say I liked the other more (Berkshire Ale). I’m having a little trouble viewing this as a true Pale Ale. Pours a golden color with a thin white head. Taste is sweet, with a corn like flavor in there with very subtle hops. Not very hoppy at all. Reminds me more of a Lager than a Pale Ale. Still, it’s pretty refreshing and overall not bad.

Mar 31, 2008 750ml bottle. Nose was a bit strange - mettalic under fruit and hops. Taste was corn and some part of the strange nose. Dont really care for this one.

Mar 21, 2008 Not a very appetizing color, kind of a hazy yellow with huge carbonation bubbles. The aroma is grainy and slightly spicy. The flavor is sweet and tastes like it never finished fermenting. I’ll finish the bottle but I wish I didn’t buy it.

Mar 15, 2008 Growler. Light fruits in the flavor, but mostly dominated by toasted bread. Super easy drinking, at the cost of depth and complexity. Pretty good, though.

Feb 26, 2008 Bomber purchased in Boston; surprisingly pale in color, even despite the name. Smallish white head. Aroma of toasted malt, fresh grass and citrus/lemon. Definitely having this beer on the wrong day, as it rains outside. Would make a goos summer beer. Light and refreshing. Slightly sweet and yeasty. Bready and apple malt flavor with a rather minimal amount of grassy hops. Overall it was unoffensive and would be nice on a hot summer day.

Feb 7, 2008 Thanks RCL for this big bomber. Looks like many other american pale beers but then it gets cloudy, towards the bottom it gets hazy. Medium low carbonation. Smell is hint of fresh slag. Clean on the olfactory. Some wet hay insults the palate. Then it turn s light for an extra. An almost big blast of carbonated freshness. Processed and industrial at time like many higher quality pale lagers. Overall a really nice chance to have a beer that exhibits little bitterness on the finish. Thanks for this opportunity Ray!
