Jan 12, 2009 Bomber from College Liquors in Grand Junction, CO. I can’t believe I still have beers from that trip around. Pours a dark chestnut color with a medium off-white head. The aroma is mostly spices, especially cloves and nutmeg. The taste is similar; load of initial spiciness, some nutmeg, cloves, ginger, some citrus zest, and a decent malt background. Nice, but not an everyday beer, very spicy.

Jan 28, 2009 Here comes the 300th rating for this beer! Bomber split with Barrios. Pours a very dark brown with brilliant clarity and chestnut highlights and a fair very light tan head. Massive nutmeg is the overwhelming aroma note. More complexities come out in flavor. Anise, cinnamon, ginger is predominant, nutmeg, clove. Medium body with medium carbonation. I totally agree with nqualls assessment that this is like a pumkin beer without the pumpkin. Nice change of pace.

Aug 11, 2007 (Bottle) Pours dark brown with red hints. Very spicy aroma with tones of clove, cardamom, nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger(bread). Fruity with notes of oranges, bananas, cherries and some other more subtle fruits. The malt brings light notes of caramel and chocolate. Very spicy flavour as well with clove and ginger up front but also some hints of nutmeg and cinnamon. Some notes celery of both in the aroma and in the flavour. Creamy and round but maybe a tiny bit raw mouthfeel. Spices linger in the aftertaste. Medium full body.

Aug 6, 2009 22oz bottle-Poured a dark amber iwth a small head that dissiptes rather quickly. Aroma of malt, fruit, spices, and honey. Taste of the same with the spices coming out more prominent. Full bodied brew that is easy to drink and hides the ABV fairly well.

Dec 19, 2009 Clear dark copper with a thin tan quickly fading head. Aroma of ginger, cinnamon, honey and malt. Taste of honey, caramel, brown sugar, ginger, spices, cardamom and a touch of alcohol. The spice mix seems all wrong. Strong honey and spices on the finish and aftertaste.
