Bomber. Pours opaque blackish brown with tan head. Medium-light body and moderate carbonation. Chocolate and a bit of molasses in the taste. The taste is roasty malt, chocolate, molasses, and just a little pine in the not very bitter finish. Not too complex, but not too bad.

Jun 28, 2008 On tap at GVB in McMinnville, OR--Poured a deep black body with a tiny circular head. Rich, robust coffee-chocolate nose that was thick and sweet. Creamy, java flavor. Lingering sweet, gritty coffee and chocolate flavors. Awesome!

Jun 25, 2008 Draft. A pitch black beer with a brown shine under a tan head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of roasted malt, as well as medium notes of soy sauce and light notes of whiskey. The flavor is sweet and very malty with notes of soy sauce and whiskey as well as lighter notes of chocolate, and a light alcohol burn, leading to a dry woody finish.

Feb 23, 2008 22 oz. bottle - pours jet black with nice thickness and off white head that quickly fades; hops and roasted malts dominate the aromas and flavors with minor hints of chocolate thrown in; texture is slightly creamy with an odd aftertaste that is kind of grainy
