| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 7, 2008 In the bomber bottle from HyVee CB. Pours a ruby-dark purple amber with a thin to nearly no head that might be of white. I’m not getting very much aroma here, perhaps a slight caramel maltiness. The flavor is quite palatable: mild hops with a bit of chocolate. Good malty fruitiness with some plums and raisins. Nothing is big about this beer, but it is good and holds up to scrutiny.

| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jun 3, 2008 Bomber. Poured clear reddish-orange with a tremendous cap of sticky beige head. The aroma picked up sweeter, dusty toasted caramel notes with what came across as a cardboardey infection.. didn’t do a whole lot for me. The flavor had toasty caramel again at the core with a touch of sour darker fruits.. lemony acidity and dry, tacky cardboard on the back-end.. ugly finish. Thick and invading carbonation on the palate leading to a poor flow.. this was not good. elnadeau (786), Laguna Niguel, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 9, 2008 Bottle from Bevmo. Malt profile offers a caramel & roast profile, hops flavors come through and help with the finish. Overall this is not striking a chord but it’s certainly drinkable. unclemattie (2437), Georgia, USA

Lacks malts. Dry hopped?? I hope this was a bad bottle...Diacetyl. Hope yours is better... dwyerpg (2545), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 16, 2008 A malty aroma. Looks nice. Flavor is pretty good, not too heavy or light and a pretty good balance of hops and malts. Tasty.
