| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jul 26, 2007 Bomber. Strong caramel aroma. Accompanied by something that does indeed suggest soy sauce. Well soy sauce is fermented, so why not. Deep amber color with a decent, but departing, beige head. Seems a bit thin bodied. Mild, creamy carbonation. It’s got that red roast malt flavor. The malt is strong, and there is very little hop to balance it. There is bitter around the edges, and at the finish after the malt drains off. No question that it is an amber ale. It is flavorful. Just very sweet. sneagrams3 (1757), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
