| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 4, 2009 Bomber. Pours deep orange brown with nice beige head. The aroma is on the sweet side, with dark fruits, some roasty ash, a hint of chocolate, and a little bit of tree bark. The flavor is sweet bread mostly, with some light roasty hints, a bit of leafiness, and an interesting tobacco note. The finish is semi-sweet with the vaguest hint of hops. Not too shabby. bu11zeye (5470), Frisco, Texas, USA
